I reckon 25% of the posts on this thread are about cycling.

In case you were not aware this is the ProRace forum. There is a forum called CakeStop where you can post all you banal and inane musings there.

C'mon Frenchie, smile.

It's called banter.


Sean K now doing the anchor commentator role for ES - sounds good. Carlton must have been caught short in the loo.

MrTapir

Sean doing the linking bits??? that sounds well weird. Carlton must be having a comfort break.

If the riders are allowed to delve in to their musettes then so are we.

You stop posting about fashion, we'll stop posting about sex, deal?

Whenever I have the beginnings of the vaguest feelings of warmth towards you and your contributions here, you crush them immediately.

Well I've just had a cheese sandwich, the break has 7'35" and Sky are on the front of the peloton.

Pickle?

Mayonnaise.

:shock: In the name of all that is good and holy, WHY?

Oh the humanity.

Cheese and mayo sarnies are fantastico. I can't remember how I accidentally fount that out but, mmmmmmmmmmmmm

If there's tomato involved, yes. Mayo on the tomato, obs.

Girls don't cry. Girls are stoic. As impassive as Quintana.

So I happened to be looking at my home town's local paper's website last night, and discovered something amazing. Dan Martin isn't from Birmingham, he's from Tamworth! He would have been at the primary school that shared a school field with my secondary school while I was there!

The Tamworth Herald have hysterically claimed him as their own. He was apparently the Tamworth Herald's 2012 sportsman of the year. Apparently it was a close run thing between Dan and Dave who had to run to the chip shop last March.

Lol! I'm originally from Taworth as well, Glacote Heath to be more specific. I'll have to start shouting for Martin, I thought he was a proper 021'er

So who's in the breakaway group?

My stream died Anyone know where I can watch it? I'm UK based but IP address goes through Germany so no ITV4 or Virgin TV Anywhere... stopstream ones have been 'banned' (which I was watching earlier) and I can't find one anywhere else
