Padraig wraps up his trip around western Sonoma County with thousands of other riders. Levi’s GranFondo is always one big rolling party with a little pain sprinkled in.
Fatty takes us through his collection of gloves as his attempts to identify the perfect pair.
The rainbow jersey but no rainbow flag. Our big discussion this week, one that already has some social media momentum, asks why there is no openly gay man in the pro peloton? Other sports have had athletes come out but the silence remains on the World Tour.

And it’s round two of This Week’s Picks. Fatty, Padraig and Michael have the findings of their deep Internet research.
