Tour De France - 11
Biomatematický model BMM: Tour de France - 11. etapa Na programu jubilejní 100 Tour de France chyběl klasický prolog a tak jsme vhodnou trať pro BMM museli počkat až do 11. etapy, kdy přišla na řadu první individuální časovka. Náročnost 33km dlouhé trati notně zvyšoval silný vítr, se kterým se všichni závodníci potýkali. Hned v úvodu nasadil nepřekonatelnou laťku favorizovaný Tony Martin (Omega Pharma-Quick step), se kterým vyrovnanou partii sehrál jen žlutý Chris Froome (Sky Procycling), výrazně tím navyšující své celkové vedení. Mezi ostatními jezdci top 10 to byla vyrovnaná bitva. Roman Kreuziger (Team Saxo-Tinkoff) zajel výborně a udržel celkové 5. místo a samozřejmě velmi emotivním zážitkem pro všechny byla ostrá jízda paralympika Jirky Ježka v roli oficiálního předjezdce. Jak se mezi špalíry diváků dařilo na trati jezdcům v programu BMM? Vítr nám dal zabrat, co?

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 of Britain ‐ 8A
Biomatematický model 2014: Tour of Britain ‐ 8a. etapa Tour of Britain, probíhající současně se závěrečným týdnem Vuelty končila dělenou etapou – dopolední časovkou na 8,8 km a odpoledním hromadným závodem. Skvěle se v ní dařilo Janu Bártovi (Net App – Endura), který potvrdil svojí časovkářskou extratřídu a dojel 4. a o pár pozic níže skončil jeho týmový kolega Leo Konig . Karel Hník (MTN‐Qhubeka) dokončil lehce za polovinou pole). O kuriozní situaci se postaral Mark Cavendish (Omega Pharma – Quick step), který si z předstartovního soustředění zapomněl vzít na start kolo… Nakonec mu ho přinesli pár vteřin před povelem „Go“. Mark se do toho opřel opravdu pořádně a dojel si pro solidní 15. místo. A jak se na širokých Londýnských ulicích dařilo jezdcům BMM?

TOB1DA – Tour of Britain Media Pack Content
TOB1DA – Tour of Britain media pack content News release (general) DUO GEAR UP FOR TOUR OF BRITAIN CHALLENGE TO ASSIST BRITISH CYCLING TALENT A business leader and world record holder will be the first riders to complete this year’s OVO Energy Tour of Britain, as they take on the route one day ahead of the elite professionals in a bid to raise £50,000 for the future of the sport. Phil Jones, managing director of Brother UK, and James Golding, holder of the world record for the furthest distance cycled in seven days, are cycling the 1,136km route to raise money for the Dave Rayner Fund, a trust set up to help promising riders fulfil their potential as professional cyclists. Departing from Pembrey Park at 9am on Saturday 1st September, the pair will ride the first seven stages of the route over consecutive days, before completing the final stage in London on Sunday 9th September – the same day the elite cyclists will cross the finish line. Phil Jones, pioneer of the fundraising project, said: “The recent Tour de France victory of Geraint Thomas has helped to shine a spotlight on cycling and show people across the country what talent we have here in the UK. “What’s not always recognised is how challenging it is to become a professional in the sport, particularly for those who don’t have the financial backing or are not part of the elite programme of British Cycling backed by Sport England. The Dave Rayner Fund helps to overcome this by providing promising cyclists with the funding they need to make it professionally, helping to ensure British cycling continues to thrive outside of the Olympic programme.
