    Tomorrow will be fcuking Jasmine fcuking tea. On a fcuking Friday. I ask you, what fcuking purgatory is that? Next it'll be fcuking pineapple and chia fcuking seeds, maybe a spot of fcuking yoga. Still, maybe I'll be quicker on the bike if my liver isn't concentrating on cleaning up alcohol.

    I'll be like the Dalai fcuking lama by Sunday, but woe betide any coont gets in my way before then. Bastards that they are. I might attach scythes to my wheels tomorrow.

    Done.

    I'd also invite you on our departmental booze cruise next Thursday but I dont think you could keep up with the alcohol consumption of 'Stevo's Angels'

    Hmmm. My dream stage has me winning the TDF on the streets of Paris.

    I see - one of those boring sprinters.
    Could be a long solo breakaway to overtake the leader.
    Attack while they are on the bubbly. Many options. :wink:
    What, you can't attack while they're on the bubbly! Poor show Blakeney, you''re not Italian are you?
    I'm sure that Bernard Hinault said something about the race not being over until the finishing line.
    He was quite correct.

    Cycling needs a new Hinault. Feck merckx, bernie's your man.

    Steady on Hopkin! Nobody mentioned not drinking on a Friday.

    Well summarised sloppy.
    They need to take a leaf out of the Giro tour route planning manual.

    So few mountain stages this year someone has to attack, and soon, for the benefit of the race, the fans, and the sponsors. Or have they simply conceded that Sky are the best team and there is no point?
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    I think it was a Tour route designed to 'open it up'. Otherwise interpreted as disadvantaging SKY/Froome.

    It is without doubt that the French broadcasting caption crew had a meltdown as they thought that no way a French rider could lead a race and possibly finish first. So they quickly put a nationality in the hat and plucked out Denmark.

    Or it's just the team name D(irect) EN(ergie).

    But I guess you knew that...
