Message by Dave Aldersebaes Race Report: A long day on some deceivingly tough roads met the peloton at the Vuelta after the first rest day at 175.7km stage from Tarragona to Vilanova i la Geltrú. Imanol Erviti attacked his breakaway mates and stayed away for a fine, hard earned win on hot Spanish roads today.
Message by Edmond Hood August 1st - that can only mean one thing. It's stagiaire time. Almost 100 young men got the chance to realise their dream of riding for a pro team at the beginning of last month. Some have stepped up with big results and a precious contract for 2011, others have not. PEZ spoke to a man we've been keeping an eye on and who's already racing as a stagiaire with a team that punches above it's weight - AN Post. He's 19 years-old, from Dublin - Mr. Philip Lavery.
Message by Dr. Stephen Cheung, Ph.D. For many of us, a highlight of the cycling year is a multi-day cycling event. For some, it’s a stage race. For others, it’s a bike tour. As we know, one of the keys to making such events tolerable, let alone enjoyable, is good food. Eating well and properly is not only good for the morale, but it’s critical in ensuring adequate recovery for another day of hard effort. What do elite cyclists do in terms of eating and energy output over the course of a hard stage race?
