Nice panoramas. Looks hilly and cold?

Meanwhile back in the home counties... Merry Christmas, minions.

A few snaps from my recent trip to Tenerife. Team Lampre were staying in my Hotel so I tagged along on a few rides :D

Apologies, my pictures don't seem to be embedding, what am I doing wrong :-(

i like imgur.com for re-hosting images that are not on my flickr

doesn't require account (but having one saves images for convenience), drag & drop interface, automatic code formatting for websites, forums etc (just copy & paste) :thumbup: :beerchug:

Again, in Tenerife. 5.5hr ride this one, over to Masca then drop a 12km descent to Buenavista Del Norte. Followed by a climb up to El Tanque where we were doing intervals. Their DS took a picture of us all whilst we were climbing up the short back side of Masca. It was published in Gazzetta Della Sport this week :lol:

The obligatory trip up to Teide National Park from my recent trip to Tenerife. Got a bit cold on the way down, I wasn't expecting the snow at the side of the road. 8c in places, still a damn sight warmer than back home!

Last big ride whilst I was over in Tenerife. 130km and 11,000ft of climbing encompassing the infamous Masca climb. Just over 4km long at 10.8% average, hurts the legs a bit :lol:

It looks like Gazzetta Della Sport forgot to mention you, even though I presume that is you in the picture.

@ HammerTime2 - Both the DS & Mechanic spoke very little English so I didn't even bother trying to tell them my name :lol: Hence, the reason why my name does not appear in the GDS article.
