Fair play to Cyanide, some of their fake names are quite funny this year. From Team Sky alone, Rigo Moran, Richard Morte, Jon Cake, Bernardo Diesel and Benos Swat all made me chuckle a little.

I'll tell you whats more annyoing than a fucking late release...
It's people sending me emails in the meantime and getting me all excited
Especially Sutty....
Cant wait for tomorrow! I am going to day 1 of the European Team Championship here in Dublin, and I'll see Churandy Martina going head to head with 2 time paralympic wold record holder (and best irish Sprinter) Jason Smyth!
Other stars at the championship include:
Jonathan Borlee (BEL/Olympic 400m finalist),
Brian Gregan (IRE/crashed out top favourite of the 400 indoors in Gothenburg 2013)
Pavel Maslak (CZE/400m European Champion)
Jason Harvey (IRE/Irelands best 400mh Sprinter & clubmate of mine)
David Hynes (IRE/Trashed me in our heat in the Varsities this year...)
Also, Churandy Martina is just awesome! Never, ever, saw a more positive person than him. We worship him here because of that
I hope Jason Smyth can beat him... Afterall he only just missed out on Olympic A-Standard by 0.02 seconds... Obviously Id like to see a nice race, and Martina is one of the most laidback and positive people I have ever seen, but Jason has Homefield Advantage... Sort of... (Well, he spends most of the year training with Tyson Gay )
Just back from the European team Championships! Great to watch. Martina cleaned up in the hundred ahead of Jason Smyth (!) and later set the Dutch up for victory in the 4x100...
Had a chance to chat to him, and he definetly is one of the nicest people I have ever met! But, somebody else stole the show from him, eventhough she "only" came 3rd... Im talking about Irelands Jessie Barr... (Yes, Female Athletics always leads to perving... )
