We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

Route designed for him and he's out on the first day. That's what you get for using through axles and discs

What's everyone's predictions for the tour then?

I'm going
Yellow - Pinot
Green - WvA
Polka - Pogacar
White - Pogacar

Bernal withdraws with a back issue. Roglic and Carapaz are on the podium.
There’s no way Pinot wins the GC (unfortunately).

Wout with freedom to do what he likes would be excellent but he will probably be riding for Roglic most of the time.

Disappointed to learn Ben King isn't in the tour this year. I thought he'd be in it for sure since he's running a charity that spans the three weeks of the tour.

Seeing all the French riders working for him at the dauphine makes me think he's got a chance. I know in reality he won't but must be the best chance for years.


Another crash, this is getting a little farcical.

the whole thing was pretty much the perfect outcome: team that starts it has the guy crash, he's not injured, everyone else gets to yell 'I fuckin told you so'
