Tour de France: Success wears Lycra in a UK tour de force
Inspired by Olympic and road-race success, Britain has fallen in love with cycling. Retailers and sponsors are forming their own peloton, but will the phenomenon ride and ride?
Friday 04 July 2014
When the Tour de France arrived in Britain for only the second time in 1994, thousands lined the streets as the world's elite cyclists raced between Dover, Brighton and Ports-mouth in the fourth and fifth stages of "La Grande Boucle".
Chris Boardman, a gold medallist at the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, had already won the prologue of the Tour and was tipped to eventually become Britain's first winner. Yet the event failed to capture the public's imagination and it would be some time before cycling became a mainstream sport.
Twenty years on and the 101-year-old race is back in the country for the fourth time. Prince William and Prince Harry will officially launch the race at Harewood House in Yorkshire on Saturday, when riders and spectators will be able to witness just how big the sport has become in Britain.
"When the Tour arrived in 1994, I don't think people really knew what to make of it. But since the 2012 Olympics in London, it's been enormous," Boardman told The Independent. "Cycling is the new golf."
According to figures from the London School of Economics, cycling contributes about £3bn to the UK each year in social and economic benefits.
The LSE said factors like the expansion of the National Cycle Network, urban cycling schemes such as London's Boris Bikes and the success of Mark Cavendish, Sir Bradley Wiggins and Chris Froome are driving this. Separate figures from Sport England show that 200,000 more people are cycling on a regular basis than they were before 2012, bringing the total number of people of cyclists in England alone to just under two million every week.
This weekend's event, known as "Le Grand Départ", is forecast to benefit Yorkshire's economy by £100m, according to Gary Verity, chief executive of the organiser, Welcome to Yorkshire. He claims the impact will be far greater than when the Tour last visited the country in 2007.
"This is being taken live on TV in 190 countries around the world for five hours on Saturday and another five hours on Sunday. We have a 10-hour global TV advert for Yorkshire," he said last week.
The event will also pass through the capital on Monday, when at least one million spectators are expected to line the route. Organisers estimate that the Tour will bring a £13m boost to London's economy.
This all means that cycling has become big business and with "Mamils" –middle-aged men in Lycra – among its biggest fans, the sport's rise in popularity has not gone unnoticed in the business world.
Corporate sponsorship deals now include Prudential Ride London, a two-day cycling festival that was launched last August, and the Rapha Condor JLT team, which is backed by the insurance broker JLT.
Broadcaster Sky also has a high profile sponsorship deal with British Cycling and operates one of the most successful teams on the Tour, home to both Froome and Wiggins.
The impact has also been huge in retailing, with pre-tax profits at Halfords rising by 1.1 per cent to £72.8m last year as interest in the sport boosted the bike chain's bottom line. Last month the London-listed company boosted its credibility by acquiring a stake in Boardman Bikes, a brand set up by the former Olympic champion and used by athletes including the cyclist Nicole Cook and the triathlete brothers Alistair and Jonathan Brownlee.
"We sold our first bike in 2007 and since then it's been a challenge keeping up with demand; it was getting a bit too big for us," Boardman said. "This deal will enable us to expand our range, which is now being sold in 86 countries."
Other beneficiaries of the cycling boom include Wiggle, the online cycling retailer that is considering a stock market float. Chaired by the former Asda chief executive – and cycling enthusiast – Andy Bond, the company was bought by private equity firm Bridgepoint for £180m in 2011.
Another retailer, Cycle Surgery, has just opened an outlet in Harrods that includes models of high-end bikes as well as Tour replica jerseys.
But is this all just a fad, inspired by a successful bunch of athletes, or is Britain's love of cycling going to keep growing? If it does, the opportunities for the business world are huge, Boardman claims.
"Our customers tend to be middle-aged people with a bit of money to spend, so the market is huge. However, the Government has got to play its part and make cycling safer, and I'm not all that confident. It needs to make some serious commitments as more people take to the roads."
For now, though, the golden era of British cycling looks set to continue, especially given the poor performance of England's footballers in the World Cup, the cricketers' series defeat to Sri Lanka and Andy Murray's quarter-final exit from Wimbledon.
It's safe to say that this weekend's event will capture the public's attention – and the world of business is ready to cash in.
Chris Boardman profile
Chris Boardman won an individual pursuit gold medal at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona and broke the world hour record three times. Although he did not ever win the Tour de France, he wore the famous yellow jersey on three separate occasions.
The Tour's UK history
The Tour de France first came to Britain in 1974 when the second stage of the 61st Tour was held in Plymouth. It returned 20 years later for two stages, but it was not until 2007 that the UK hosted Le Grand Départ, with the race setting off from the capital. This year the race will start in Yorkshire and also pass through Cambridge and London before heading to France.

"We build out profiles on LinkedIn and include key words people might be looking for such as 'certified mediator' or 'land zoning,' " Reichl said. "We use terminology from a lawyer's practice in the profile. It's up to how conservative they are."
Her legal clients are advised to avoid one-click endorsements and to be cautious about who they link to on LinkedIn.
"I think LinkedIn is a legitimizer," she said. 'It really sounds as if the Bar wants to be fair so firms can generate new business and compete. We have to wait and see about some of this."
Arbiters of compliance
The small law firm of Gallagher & Associates in St. Petersburg has been using social media networking to keep in touch with clients, present itself to potential clients and offer legal news it thinks is important. The firm communicates via Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook and Flickr.
One person decides how to do this without violating Florida Bar rules: lawyer and founder Charles Gallagher III.
"Policing each one is almost a full-time job," he said. "We try to be very topic specific, and we don't endorse comments. It's all going to be more time consuming with the new rules."
The firm also routinely sends drafts and templates of advertisements and other communication to the Bar for approval just to be certain of compliance, although it can be expensive since Bar review costs $150. All of the firm's videos go to the Bar for review, Gallagher said.
For other communication or networking, he is the final arbiter and makes sure the firm's four lawyers are thoughtful about their messaging.

Newly Completed Fire Pit and Patio
I just got finished building a fire pit and flagstone patio in the woods behind my house. I've been posting construction pictures in the "Gardening With Stone" forum, but I thought I'd post the finished project here too.
Here's the before picture:
The first thing I had to do was scroll back to find out where you live. I want one!!!
This is gorgeous. It's amazing. I love how you incorporated space for the firewood as well.
A couple questions - how far is this from your house? I have been thinking about a fire pit and wondered where to place it. This is just so beautiful, I think I'd want it close enough that I'd see it all the time.
It's about 100 ft. behind my house in the woods. You can see my neighbor's white house in the last picture. My house is about the same distance away. I can see glimpses of the fire pit from my house, but I don't really want to see more. I like the natural woods. It comes right up to the back of the house. I'll try to remember to take a picture tomorrow when it's light out.
Seeing how beautiful your woods are *almost* makes me miss the brush I had removed from mine last fall. Except your brush is nice looking evergreens, and mine was all chokecherry, poison ivy, and other plants that made a tick-highway into our yard (and onto us, the cat, the dog ...)
You really have an eye for this stuff, the plantings around the pit & patio are so natural looking. I hope that when I add back in some (attractive) understory plants on my yard I can achieve results half as good as this.
Do you do this for a living? If not, you could!
Pam, this beautiful work took a lot of time. Note the growth of the trees and the addition of houses in the background. Making it economically feasible is another thing entirely.
That's what makes this special. He did it himself with a minimum amount of money and a lot of thought, work, and time.
Like others, I have followed this project from the beginning. Way to go, Jugglerguy!
Thanks for the compliments, everyone.
Mike, you're correct that I couldn't do this for a price than anyone could afford. I work very slowly! However, the before picture is misleading. It was taken a few years ago, I just forgot to take one immediately before starting. The first two pictures are roughly the same shot. The spruce tree to the right and behind the fire pit is the same tree, but with about 6 years of growth. The houses were all there when I started. I began this project last spring so it took me about a year and a half. By the way, Pam, I'm a math teacher with some time on my hands during the summer.
Here's a picture from my back door, Pam. The fire pit is above the birdbath in the picture. It shows up a little more in real life.
I keep thinking how far you had to transport those rocks once they were in your driveway. Not only the distance, but it looks like it's uphill!
I did a lot of rock work in thirty plus years of landscaping. People were always surprised how much more it cost for rock work in the backyard vs a wall and outcroppings next to the driveway in the front yard. Access makes the difference.
Moving the rocks to the back yard wasn't too bad, but I guess it did add some work. I gathered the rocks myself from rock piles in farm fields. I spent tons of time searching for rocks with fairly flat tops and bottoms. I then rolled or lifted them into the back of my Jeep and drove them home. After all the searching, loading, and driving, the wagon trips to the back yard didn't seem so bad. It probably would have been cheaper to buy a pickup rather than make so many trips with my Jeep!
I just completed my version of a fire pit in my backyard. I cleared out a very weedy flower bed. Check it out!
Here is a link that might be useful: Fire Pit with River Rocks
GREAT job. It's beautiful! Now I'm itching to get to work in our backyard...but no rock-hauling for me for a bit. (DeQuervain's tendonitis...I'm in a brace.) Still...your post gives me inspiration. Is that wall drystacked--or mortared? I need some retaining walls in the backyard...
Beautiful! We're just starting on a landscape project and were just talking about sitting walls and benches yesterday. Love your benches!
Smiles... ribidibi
Mjsee, the wall is dry stacked, but the fire pit is mortared. I'll put a link at the bottom of this message to the stone forum discussion with lots of construction pictures.
My wife ordered the benches from an Internet site fo $70 each. They're not super high quality, but they're ok. I can ask her for the address of the site if you're interested.

"I took the original photograph that inspired the Partner in Crime series under a bridge near Yosemite National Park in California. There were layers of civilian graffiti on the wall and we decided to add some of our own. My friend Lauren had never used a spray can before and took a turn. I shot a few photos while she sprayed and I didn't look at them for another year or so. I remember vividly how wide her smile was and how ecstatic she was after doing it. "

Echo Park Lake 1920
June 1920: Panorama of Echo Park Lake looking north from Temple Street. In the distance is Edendale, where early movie studios were located. Later in the 1920s those studios moved to Hollywood.
This photo was published in the June 27, 1920, Los Angeles Times.
Edendale is no longer a district in Los Angeles. Today its split up among Echo Park, Los Feliz and Silver Lake. In the photo, Allesandro Avenue, now Glendale Boulevard, is on the left.
This photo was later published in the 1998 Times postcard book, "Times Gone By."

It's a very telling photograph of the neighborhood prior to the high density construction that came afterwards. The view from the lake south bound towards the downtown skyline is still a majestic sight. It is just too bad that the area has declined; too many multi-family dwellings were built with the usual negative results.
Nevertheless, I try to get over there when I have out of town guests because it continues to be a very picturesque and peaceful place in L.A. standards. I am glad that the surrounding neighborhood of Echo Park is undergoing a rebirth.

This is my second visit to this hotel, location is good, it is near to underground station, breakfast and diner are good too. I can not say: Staff are so friendly and they do not know english, but staff of reception knows english and they are very frendly.
Clean and good hotel. I can prefer that hotel for stay on the future. - Anonymous

Really cool place! Very cozy, comfortable and good-designed hotel
with quit relaxed atmosphere. You feel like owners were trying to
take care about all your needs and at the same time make everything
simple and still functional. It seems people feel very proud about
working there.... From the receptionists, to the cleaning staff, to
the host at breakdast. Btw, excellent breakfast! Also, this hotel is
very close to metro.
P.S. special thanks for the beautiful complimentary champagne, card, and s - Anonymous
Hotel is quite new and very good looking; staff is very helpful, there is a sauna and fitness room. Hotel Restaurant serves tasty food, great atmosphere. - Anonymous
The hotel is well located close to Red Square - about 1 Km away but the
walk to the centre is well worth the effort for the street traders etc
on the route. The room - we had a junior suite - was comfortable and
spacious. The view over the river was nice. The staff were excellent. I
booked at 60% off the rack rate so it was good value too. - Anonymous
Hotel is located near Expocenter which was the most important for us.

A native New Yorker, I love my city, but I also love leaving
it. I've traveled through South
American and Europe (even living in Milan for a brief period of time),
and have done two Habitat trips already—Tajikistan and Sri
Lanka. I love the experience of these
trips, I feel like you really get a sense of the people and culture that you
just can't get on a standard vacation. I
also love getting to know the families and their stories as we build their homes
along side them.
Up until a few months ago, I had a glamorous job working as
a photo editor for magazines, but left to work in the family business. We own and manage residential apartment
buildings in Brooklyn and have actually backed a builder in a small condo
project for the past year. It's VERY
interesting to see how intricate our homes are here compared to the simple walls
and roofs we construct with Habitat.
I'm looking forward to meeting you all in Vietnam!
I have lived in Washington D.C. for about three years, but
went to college in Seattle and grew up in northern New Mexico. I've had the
opportunity to travel in Western Europe (studying abroad and backpacking around
Italy, Austria, Germany, France, and the Netherlands), England, Russia (I did a
three month internship with the U.S. Embassy in Moscow in 2008), and Mexico (I
spent a week building homes in Juarez.)
I'm really looking forward to this trip because I'm an
adventure junkie at heart, and I would much rather spend my vacation time
serving and engaging people than wining and dining at some posh tourist spot. I
have never traveled to Asia before, either, so I am excited to experience a
new culture and part of the world
I came to Columbia
four years ago, after a long career in journalism, working for newspapers,
magazines, and National Public Radio. In the late 1980s I was NPR's Moscow
bureau chief, and from 1992-95 I covered South Africa and much of the rest of
the continent for NPR. After that I was executive director of the press freedom
group Committee to Protect Journalists for eight years. I love teaching,
especially at the graduate student level.
Our students are highly motivated and
very hard working -- and often more optimistic about the future of journalism
than I am. Their optimism rubs off, to some degree. It's also a real plus that
my husband (and fellow Habitat volunteer) Larry Heinzerling and I live about 10
blocks from Columbia. We're looking forward to this new experience.

Ohio Governor's Police Panel Calls For More Oversight
A task force studying Ohio police and community relations has narrowed down list of potential recommendations.
A settlement has been reached in a class-action lawsuit charging that Ohio's state insurance fund for injured workers overcharged employers hundreds of millions of dollars over several years.
A new study shows Ohio's property taxes have been shifting from business to residential and agricultural for 35 years. And it's a shift that's accelerated over the last 20 years.
The latest monthly report from the state reports a November unemployment of 6.8 percent. That's down from 6.9 percent in October and the lowest since the summer of 2008.
Some Ohio businesses are pinning their hopes to a new federal program that matches companies with potential partners overseas.
The next text message you get may not be from your BFF, best friend forever – saying they'll BRT be right there. Instead, it could be from your doctor's office or local library. WOSU reports some businesses are moving away from snail mail notifications to quick and easy texts.
When it comes to neighborhoods in Columbus, the South Side often is forgotten. Now neighbors and city planners are trying to change that. They are studying the areas needs and formulating a development plan for the future. Neighbors and city leaders will discuss the plan at a meeting tonight.
The Ohio Civil Rights Commission's new rule, requiring most small businesses to offer at least 12 weeks of unpaid pregnancy and maternity leave, is on hold for at least three months.
This summer the state provided hundreds of thousands of Ohioans with free identity theft protection after a computer backup tape containing their personal information was stolen. Some of the information on the tape included businesses' information. But businesses are not covered.
Strip-club owners and dancers will try to get voters to overturn recently approved restrictions that will forbid touching of strippers and nude dancing after midnight.
There's a new development in that battle over a proposal to require that strippers stay a set distance away from patrons at topless bars and other x-rated businesses across Ohio.

Instructions - howtochangeyourname.com/idaho.htm
Homepage - howtochangeyourname.com
The Idaho name change for an adult as described in the State Code 7-801 and State Code 7-804 is done by filing a petition to the county's civil court where you are a resident. It is easier, if you were just married, to have your certified marriage license with the raised seal or if you were recently divorced to have your divorce decree. Typically, you will not have a court hearing in Idaho but it depends on the circumstances of the name change.
Must be a resident for at least 6 months
If just married, must have your original marriage certificate.
If just divorced, must have your divorce decree.
Step 1 - Fill-Out the following forms:
Idaho Name Change Petition ANC 1-1
Idaho Notice of Hearing ANC-3.
Step 2 - Do not sign until you are in front of a Public Notary. Make 2 copies of each.
Step 3 - File the Petition to the County Court Clerk's office in the County where your live (See County List Below). Pay the filing fee of $86.00 and you will be given a case number. Make sure to have the court clerk make your hearing at least 6 weeks in advance from the date you filed petition.
Step 4 - You will receive a Idaho letter of publication from the Court Clerk's office and you will be needing to send that along with your Idaho Notice of Hearing to the newspaper you choose. The ad must run for at least once per week for 4 consecutive weeks.
Step 5 - After successful publication, the newspaper will provide you with an 'Affidavit for Publication' which you will need to send to the County Court Clerk's office via standard mail or e-mail.
Step 6 - Idaho Code requires that the Petitioner be at the hearing. At the hearing, the Judge may ask you simple questions about the reasoning for your name change, but probably will just want to know the basic reasons. The Judge will sign your Idaho Order for Name Change which will be your official document for changing your name at any public or private institution.

Hmm…it looks like things are taking a while to load. Try again?

Album Rating: 3.5honestly idk how anyone whos heard his first two albums could say that this is above like a 4
because they're not really comparable at all
Digging: Lost Salt Blood Purges - The Voids We All Long For
Album Rating: 3.5i can definitely draw a lot of comparisons between them
Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound Offyea they're comparable but this is a lot catchier to me, and has that overly bloated bombast going on. :]
Digging: Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly
This is easily my favourite, although I'd say every Kanye album is equally catchy
Album Rating: 3.5devil in a new dress goes hard as hell tho
Album Rating: 4.0this and his first album are easily his best albums.
Album Rating: 4.2i think the college dropout is my favorite yeah
Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound Offthis and his first album are easily his best albums. [2]
That 3.5 saddens me, though
Digging: Joanna Gruesome - Weird Sister
Album Rating: 4.5CD isnt even top 3 kanye lol
jesus walks' a banger tho
Album Rating: 4.5
Pretentious. Get some people to play the violin for you, rap some boring stereotypical lyrics that have only digressed since his
debut album, and call it art. Add a few publicity stunts "GEORGE BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE" "BEY
ONCE DESERVES THIS!" " I AM WARHOL!" and Rolling Stone can't help but give you a cover.
Digging: Liturgy - The Ark Work
Note: If you want to give a short summary review, use the sound off feature.
Digging: Kendrick Lamar - Delete this album
Album Rating: 4.5Most Overrated Hip Hop Albums
can anyone verify it's even kanye on half these tracks?
Album Rating: 4.5LambsBread will know
Album Rating: 3.0I think I recorded three of these tracks when I was drunk.
Digging: Death Grips - The Powers That B - Part II: Jenny Death
Album Rating: 5.0Bumped this up to a 5, because fuck it.
Album Rating: 4.0I liked this, and I never listen to hip-hop.
You still have never listened to hip hop
