Giorgia Bronzini (Wiggle Honda) defeating Marianne Vos (Rabobank-Liv/Giant) in today’s first road stage of the Giro della Toscana could be a sign that the World championship road race is to see another battle between the two sprint rivals.

Scottish 100 Mile TT Champion 2013.
‘Unfinished business’ is how Iain Grant (Dooleys) viewed the 2013 Scottish 100
mile championship; and it has to be said that he ‘did the business’ on the day
to win in 3:54:05 giving him a yawning nine minute margin over team mate Gavin
Shirley [4:03:02] and Jim Cusick (Glasgow Couriers) [4:03

Happy to be a part of Colombia's ongoing cycling legacy.
During a long transfer at the Giro d'Italia this year, most riders from Team Colombia sat at the front of bus. They joked and laughed endlessly, pausing only from time to time to look at the profile of following day's stage, which itself induced nervous laughter from all of them. In the back of the

It's time to stop calling him a "Six Day Star".
The last time we spoke to Danish Six Day star Michael Mørkøv was back in June

Having won a stage and also led the Vuelta a España for a day, Nicolas Roche is currently experiencing his best Grand Tour performance to date.
The Irish rider had a quiet Tour de France, partly due to working for Alberto Contador and also because he was two kilos over his racing weight. Since t
