For more information, see www.juniortourofwales.org Stage Altitude Profiles Stage 1 Stage After the start in Brynmawr and the initial ascent, the riders settle into a fast, undulating central section, before the final 1.3km climb of the Tumble. To watch the start, satnav to NP23 4AJ, or for the finish, NP4 9SR Stage 2 Stage The riders race westward from Abergavenny along the A40 through Crickhowell before the King of the Mountains climb at Bwlch and sprints at Llanhamlach (A40) and Aberbran (A40). Then the real climbing starts with the ascent of Defynnog (A4215), another sprint through Aberbran, and the climb of Crai (A4067) before turning onto the A4221 at Abercraf. A fast descent into Glynneath and the climb out of the valley up the A465 will set up the grand finale - the Rhigos Mountain itself. To watch the riders on the mountain, satnav to CF44 9UF Stage 3 11 laps of the undulating, windswept Parc Bryn Bach course will make an exciting race, easily enough to see who has the strength and who doesn’t. To watch, set your satnav for NP22 3AY Stage 4 is, unlike the others, quite deliberately flat. Designed to give the sprinters and breakaway special- Stage 4 Stage ists some fun, it will be frenetic and fast. To watch the intermediate sprints and finish, satnav to NP7 9AA Stage 5 Stage Stage 5 will see some early skirmishes along the A465, with the real action starting west of Merthyr with the first King of the Mountains climb at Mynydd Aberdar. The race then heads through Hirwaun past the sprint at Penderyn School, and down the A4059 to join the A470, past Storey Arms to the sprint at Libanus. The riders will be marking each other along the A40, through Crickhowell to Abergavenny, before the final showdown on the Tumble Moun- tain. Satnav to NP4 9SR again to catch the race finish. For full route info, stage maps and other information, see www.juniortourofwales.org Colour Co-ordinated What do the jerseys mean, and how do the riders win them? Like this! The Yellow Jersey is worn by the rider who has completed the total distance in the shortest time – the overall Race Leader. The holder must be able to climb with the best as well as hold their own on the flat, and in the time trial. Fred Wright of VC Londres won in 2016, and returns to defend his title. The Blue Jersey is for the Best Young Rider. It is awarded in exactly the same way as the yellow – but it is open only to riders born in 2000 – their first year in the junior category. Jake Stewart of Swinnerton Cycles won it last year - and will be back, gunning for Yel- low. The Polka-Dot jersey is worn by the King of the Mountains – the best climber. The first few riders over each designated climb score points - and the tougher the climb, the more points they score. The rider with the most points wears the jersey. Charlie Quarterman of Zappi Racing won in 2016 The Green Jersey is for the fast guys – and the principle is similar to the KoM. The first few riders across the line at designated flat sprints and stage finishes score points. In 2016, Matt Walls of Velocity GlobalBike was the race’s best sprinter 2017 once again saw a Junior Tour graduate wear Yellow at le Tour, when the race’s patron Geraint Thomas won the opening time trial in Dusseldorf and wore the race leader’s jersey for three days. Mark Cavendish, 3rd Sprints JTW2002, was looking to be over his bout of glandular fever, when his fate- ful clash with Peter Sagan ended his race. Dan McLay, winner of JTW2010, was also in amongst the sprints, finishing 3rd behind Cav on stage 6. Luke Rowe (Green Jersey, JTW2007) gave everything helping his Team Sky leader Chris Froome to his fourth TdF win. Dan Martin, winner of Junior Tour 2004, had an incredible race, riding with the leaders in the mountains and finishing 6th overall - despite sustaining a back injury in the crash which put Richie Porte out. Meanwhile, Simon Yates, 2nd in the KoM JTW2010, followed his brother Adam to the White Jersey of Best Young Rider. With JTW12 and JTW13 winners Hugh Carthy and Scott Davies coming through, and many other JTW graduates alongside them, the future is bright Tour de 1 Fred Wright VC Londres 2 Tom Knight VC Londres 3 Jacob Vaughan VC Londres The Riders 4 Lewis Winfield VC Londres 5 Jake Stewart Swinnerton Cycles 6 Joe Swinnerton Swinnerton Cycles 52 Harry Cain Equiom IOM Junior Cycling Team 94 Jamie Lloyd Team Corley Cycles 7 Joseph Nally Scotland 53 Adam Kelly Equiom IOM Junior Cycling Team 95 Theo Modell Team Corley Cycles 8 Tim Shoreman Scotland 54 Anthony Anderson Sigma Sport.co.uk 96 Edmund Bishop VC Meudon 9 Sean Flynn Scotland 55 Samuel Tillett Giant Cycling Club - Halo Films 97 Harry Hardcastle WHEELBASE CABTECH JUNIOR RT 10 Stephen Dent Scotland 56 James Tillett Giant Cycling Club - Halo Films 98 Jack Ford WHEELBASE CABTECH JUNIOR RT 11 Mark Donovan Beste Alde La Tostadora/ 57 Michael Parry Verulam - reallymoving.com 99 William Orrell-Turner WHEELBASE CABTECH JUNIOR RT 12 Harry Gillett Beste Alde La Tostadora/ 58 Joe Hill Sussex Revolution Velo Club 101 Craig Rogers Birkenhead North End CC 13 Txomin Munitxa Beste Alde La Tostadora/ 59 Mason Hollyman Bike Box Alan 102 Harrison Wood Mid Devon CC 14 Pello Ugarte Beste Alde La Tostadora/ 60 Brad Dransfield Bike Box Alan 103 Matthew Lewis Wolverhampton Whls 15 Daniel Coombe Wales 61 Jordan Reed Bike Box Alan 105 Calum Fernie Nottingham Clarion CC 16 Rhys Britton Wales 62 Sam Walsham Bike Box Alan 106 Louie Priddle Mid Devon CC 17 Matthew Burke Wales 63 William Corbett Brother NRG 107 Morgan Jones Cwmcarn Paragon Cycle Club 18 Oscar Mingay Wales 65 Toby Tanfield Brother NRG 114 Isaac Wright South East Region 19 Thomas Pidcock PH-MAS/Paul Milnes/Oldfield ERT 66 Brecon Burnett Cardiff

  • Binckbank Tour – 2
    Biomatematický model 2017 – BinckBank Tour – 2. etapa Po delší době je tu vhodná časovka a s ní opět Biomatemetický model. Druhá etapa BinckBank Tour (pro nás známější díky celkovému vítězství Zdeňka Štybara v roce 2013 pod původním názvem Eneco tour) pro jezdce představovala 9 rovinatých kilometrů na úzké městské trati, které absolvovali za mokra, resp. s postupně se horšícími podmínkami. Z českých elitních jezdců je letos ve startovním poli jen Petr Vakoč (Quick‐Step Floors) a trať zvládl velice dobře, dokonce o tři příčky porazil i legendárního Tonyho Martina (Katusha – Alicin), pro kterého to byla věru další hořká časovka letošní sezóny. Vzhledem k tomu, že se startovalo v opačném pořadí dle výsledků první etapy, Tony vyrážel na trať před Petrem a tedy papírově za lepších podmínek, takže od Petra rozhodně velmi dobrý výkon! Jak se na kluzké mokré trati dařilo jezdcům, zapojeným do letošního Biomatematického modelu?

  • Towards a [Re]Conceptualisation of Power in High-Performance Athletics in the UK a CONSTERDINE Phd 2020
    Towards a [re]conceptualisation of power in high-performance athletics in the UK A CONSTERDINE PhD 2020 Towards a [re]conceptualisation of power in high-performance athletics in the UK ALEXANDRA CONSTERDINE A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Sport and Exercise Sciences Manchester Metropolitan University 2020 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I lay the blame for this thesis at the door of my first Director of Studies, Dr Bill Taylor. As it was his foresight, patience and wisdom that has encouraged me to persevere, so he must shoulder some of the burden. Despite being constantly challenged in the last five years, I offer my unending gratitude and heartfelt appreciation to him. I also extend sincere thanks as well as further blame to my supervisory team. To Dr Laura Gale, my second Director of Studies, Dr Ryan Groom and Dr Samantha Oldfield who have provided me with their well measured advice and questions. Furthermore, I recognise that without the willing contribution from all who acted as research participants I would have no thesis at all. Therefore, thank you to everyone I interviewed and I hope to do justice to your involvement. To my well-meaning friends and family who forgave me for not being fully present, I extend my warmest gratitude. I am indebted to your foolhardy belief in me throughout my research. My parents, Rose and Bill, have kept me grounded throughout. Finally, to the two people most affected by my studies, Tom and Mikey, I thank you the most.

  • Tour De France
    Tour de France The Tour de France is the world’s most famous, and arguably the hardest, cycling race. It takes place every year and lasts for a total of three weeks, covering almost 3,500km. History of the Race During the late 19th century, cycling became a popular hobby for many people. As time went on, organised bike races were introduced and professional cycling became very popular in France. On 6th July 1903, 60 cyclists set off on a race and covered 2,428km in a circular route over six stages. 18 days after setting off, 21 of the original 60 cyclists made it back to the finish line in Paris. The winner was Maurice Garin and the Tour de France was born. Except for war time, the race has taken place every year since then and has become more challenging with the addition of mountain climbs and longer distances. The Modern Tour de France Each year, the tour begins in a different country. The route changes annually too, though usually finishes on the Champs-Élysées in Paris. In 2019, the race starts in Brussels, Belgium on the 6th July and ends in Paris on the 28th July after 21 stages totalling a distance of 3,460km. There are 22 teams taking part in the Tour de France, each with eight riders. The reigning champion is Welsh cyclist Geraint Thomas. Coloured Jerseys Yellow jersey Green jersey Red polka dot jersey White jersey (maillot jaune) (maillot vert) (maillot à pois rouges) (maillot blanc) Worn by the Worn by the King of the Mountains jersey Fastest overall race leader at rider with the – worn by the first rider to rider under the each stage.
