On yer bike..............

A staple diet of more training for Wolves today - this morning in the rain back at the AUL ground on the way to Dublin and this evening more fitness work and running drills on the beach.
And for Mick McCarthy, a press conference at Bohemians training ground to promote Sunday's second and final friendly of the tour.
That also brought him into contact with a footballing figure sporting a bit of Birmingham history.
Sean Connor, the Bohemians manager, spent just over a year as Blues' press officer in the early part of the decade, picking up valuable footballing experience as he pursued his coaching badges.
From there he went to coach out in America under Wolves' public enemy number one John McGinlay, before taking the helm at Sligo Rovers in the League of Ireland.
Success there landed him the post at Bohemians, one of Ireland's biggest clubs, where expectations are high.
Connor, still in regular contact with Blues boss Steve Bruce, was keen to catch up on all things Birmingham and to be remembered to the Mail's 'Mr Blues', Colin Tattum.
Having sat on the other side of the fence, Connor knows all about handling the questions from the Irish press contingent.
And so too McCarthy, who in his usual top form was able to comfortably fend off any movements towards asking about, you guessed it, Sunderland and Roy Keane.
It was an entertaining 20 minutes, including one particularly surreal moment midway through.
A chap walked through the main entrance to the site, each of his feet covered in plastic bags, carrying a bike.
McCarthy's fit of giggles said it all.
