This weeks mag includes....

In this week's Cycling Weekly there's detailed coverage, comment and analysis of the mass confession at the T-Mobile conference and we look at its effect on the Tour de France, starting in London on July 7. This week's batch of confessions and revelations mark a turning point, with most sensationally Bjarne Riis admitting he used the blood boosting drug EPO to win the 1996 Tour de France.

We all know cycling is good for your heart, but as a cyclist are you immune to heart problems? Read the facts in this week's Fitness. In Tech we test the Wilier Le Roi XL, as ridden by the pro Lampre team. This week's sportive is the Forest of Dean Classic and we're with Chris Opie in Holland for Rides. Alongside the regulars like Q&A, How do I…, Off the Back and the Big Interview we've got race reports from the Giro d'Italia, Irish Ras and Richmond GP.

Pro Cycling - June

The June issue of Procycling continues with the Tour of Italy theme of our Giro special issue last month. Gilberto Simoni – now the race favourite, along with bête noire Damiano Cunego, in Ivan Basso’s abscence – and Saunier Duval team-mate Riccardo Riccò shoot the breeze about media pressure, Basso’s descending skills and rooming together. Staying with the Italian theme, Alessandro Petacchi – the Italian sprint star who, until last year’s Giro where he crashed and broke his kneecap, seemed unbeatable – talks about his attempts to return to the top, as does, another crash victim, Crédit Agricole’s Saul Raisin, whose injuries were so severe that it looked unlikely he would walk again, let alone ride his bike. There's a profile of the Tinkoff Credit Systems team – the brainchild of Russian Oleg Tinkov, Russian entrepreneur and former caviar salesman. Last, but not least: Chris Boardman delivers – his view on the great helmet debate.

Cycling Weekly

Cycling Weekly - May 17th

If you're in the market for a new road bike, the chances are you'll be considering one of the growing range of sportive models. There's a boom in long-distance, semi-competitive rides and the top manufacturers haven't been slow in creating specific models as an alternative to out-and-out race bikes.

This week features the annual Sportive bike showdown, pitching Specialized's S-Works Roubaix against the full-carbon Colnago CLX, Litespeed's entry-level Ardennes model, plus the Silk Road titanium steed from new kids on the block - Sunday Bicycles.

Also this issue: Irish legend Sean Kelly shows his favourite back roads in Majorca, there's the inside story on Chris Hoy's kilo world record bid, all the gossip from the opening days of the Tour of Italy, a chat with Olympic rowing hero James Cracknell about his cycling ambitions and the CW staff go back to school to try-out Bikeability, the all-new version of the Cycling Proficiency Test.

Read her body

The latest sex advice from Men's Health Magazine

Here are som telltale signs that'll make you read her body better:

Eyelashes

Hold her gaze for a minute. If she's blinking more than normal (which is 15 times a minute), there's a chance she's on the Pill; women on birth control blink 32% more than those who aren't. Put on your toughest, most confident face as you look at her. Due to a shift in hormone levels, research says, women on the Pill are more attracted to men with rugged features.

Brain

She's matching you drink for drink, but seems her same old self. What's going on? Men and women get different kinds of buzzes: men lose inhibitions, while women become sedated. If you want her in the party spirit, don't feed her more alcohol. Feed the jukebox. Research shows that up-tempo music will make her more social.

Small of her back

As she moves towards orgasm during sex, she'll begin to arch her spine. Hold her tight around the small of her back at this point and stay attuned to how much she's arching. And, for God's sake, don't stop; maintain the same rhythm and intensity of stimulation until she climaxes. She'll pay you back for this later, with interest.
