Hey everyone, I've had to make the tough decision to take a break from The Cycling Raven project. It's been a blast for the last 18 months, but my life is taking me in a different direction. However, it's not dead - I hope to be back as soon as I can! cyclingraven.cc/2018/04/23/t…

Hey guys! The site domain has gone down because I need to renew it. Instead of running two blogs on two domains, I'm going to merge my portfolios into one, so you'll see TCR hosted on another domain in the coming weeks. Sorry for the inconvenience :)

There will probably be some activity heading into Worlds as well. I'm going to change the blog focus from constant writeups to just opinion pieces because that's more my passion than just mindlessly doing race previews.

Hopefully this change of direction will motivate me to keep this alive while I juggle my esports coverage too!

First time tuning into cycling after TDU (burned out). Saw that horrible crash in #RVVWomen. Jesus, that FDJ rider got nailed. #UCIWWT

Like the sport doesn't have enough on its plate. As soon as a rider has been even had an AAF on their Biological Passport, they shouldn't race until they are cleared, or banned and un-banned. xitter.cf/TeamSky/status/9604547…

After this year's #SunTour, I've reflected on The Continental Revolution going through Australian Cycling right now. It's great, it's glorious, and it's going to set Australia up for the future. cyclingraven.cc/2018/02/05/t…

Looking at the @UCI_cycling Calendar, there is a 1.1 race in Bahrain called the Desert Pearl. No idea what it is, can't find any info on it, and it's in 11 days. Interesting...

You know it's #TDU day in McLaren Vale when you can get roadside assistance after your CO2 canister carks it, and you catch up with riders like @JessicaAllen93!

Riding into Willunga with huge headwinds, expect echelons and crosswinds today and a headwind climb up Willunga. #TDU

I'm going to be roadside today and tomorrow and at the carpark climb tonight. Blog posts to follow on Sunday and Monday. If you catch a guy in a Giro 2016 Grand Depart jersey on a CAAD 5 around the course today, pull me over! #TDU

Although it was hotter than forecasted today, Hansen made the best decision he could for the riders with the info he had. You can't hate the bloke for not being able to predict the weather perfectly. He's a cyclist, not a meteorologist. xitter.cf/HansenAdam/status/9542…
