    Greatest Sporting Legends

    The word "legend" is clearly overused but there are certain sportsmen/women/athletes who really deserve the tag. Without the bias of Southend United, who would make your list? Who were your ground breakers, game changers, pioneers? Who for you stands out as something special? Substance over...

    Tour De France - Mark Cavendish

    Right, I know absolutely nothing about cycling (never even passed my cycling proficiency test at Earls Hall.....) but obviously know of the Tour de France and it being a huge event, and have heard of the likes of Lance Armstrong, Sean Kelly, Eddie Merx etc. I know there are a few of you on here...

    Lance Armstrong

    Floyd Landis..... Tyler Hamilton..... even reportedly George Hincapie according to CBS. The list of former team-mates now lining up to speak out about PEDal power seems to be growing. Armstrong's denials appear to be not that of innocence, but only that he's never failed a test. The UCI can't...

    Question about a road bike

    Need some help from bikey people! Have been offered a brand new (old stock) Trek road bike from my local shop. It's 2005 or 6ish i'd say, just before the "Madone" series, with ultegra gear sets etc, carbon frame, fork , and bontrager race wheels. I believe the model is Trek 5200 - its blue if...

    4 week hangover

    From AFP (it wasn't me before anybody says!!!) It may be the longest hangover in the history of binge beer drinking. When a 37-year old man walked into a hospital emergency room in Glasgow, Scotland last October complaining of "wavy" vision and a non-stop headache that had lasted four weeks...

    Top ten living sportsmen/women

    Had a discussion following the Sports Personality of the Year Awards on Sunday night, and came up with this list of the top ten (still living) sportsmen or women. Just one individual per sport allowed. They should be judged on the impact they made in their own chosen sport, and the wider impact...

    Tour de France

    As the resident SZ cycling nut on here (along with W4 Shrimper), who do you think will win the 2005 TdF which starts tomorrow? It will be an interesting opening to the Tour with an opening 19km TT in rural countryside taking place of the usual prologue burn-up around a city centre. It's Lance...

    Livestrong

    A topic was posted on here, earlier this month I believe, which lead to talk about the yellow wristbands worn by many which represents Lance Armstrongs cancer charity. I have looked at getting one for myself and have found many on ebay but I aint too keen on going down that route. Also...
