id="wpa2a_2">Share/Bookmark</a></p><p>As many of you will remember I spent a week in July at <a href="http://lovingthebike.com/pro-cycling/bikeschool-allez-le-tour" target="_blank">Le Tour</a> with <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/SteamyWynndows" target="_blank">@SteamyWynndows</a> &amp; <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/AndyMWild" target="_blank">@AndyMWild </a>and as a result of that trip, ended up the proud owner of a limited edition Team Sky jersey signed by the riders. Since returning from the Tour I&#8217;ve been determined to make that Sky jersey the centre piece in my lycra-man cave&#8230; less affectionately known as &#8216;the 3rd bedroom&#8217;. Now finally, the room is complete. The hand painted World Champion stripes are finished, the jersey has returned from the framers, the pictures are hung and the adminration has begun!</p>
<p><a href="http://lovingthebike.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/IMAG02491.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-7328 aligncenter" src="http://lovingthebike.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/IMAG02491-577x1024.jpg" alt="" width="224" height="397" /></a></p>
<p>But this room isn&#8217;t just for looking at, it&#8217;s become my motivation. Where better to punish yourself in front of a Sufferfest video (or two if you feel particularly anarchic!) than in a room surrounded by memories of World Champions and pioneers of the sport!? Short of riding your turbo in Jens&#8217; garage, you can&#8217;t get much more motivational than my new bike room! I&#8217;m very pleased with it and I hope The Sufferfest see fit to add me to their list of bike torture chambers.</p>
<p><a href="http://lovingthebike.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/IMAG0192.jpg"><img class=" wp-image-7319 aligncenter" src="http://lovingthebike.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/IMAG0192-300x169.jpg" alt="" width="418" height="235" /></a></p>
<p>So when a friend asked <em>why </em>I had decorated the room in homage to my idols&#8230; I answered, &#8220;Because I can!&#8221; Check out the video below and let me know what you think.</p>
