    Which Tours did you enjoy so much more than this years? We’re you on the edge of your seat during the Indurain or Armstrong years?

    2014 Giro
    2014 Vuelta
    2015 Giro
    2015 Vuelta
    2016 Giro
    2016 Vuelta
    2017 Giro

    Any more questions ?

    You’ve not been cycling very long have you? Or has it just been best in the last 4 years?

    Wow you’re full of pointless comments. Want me to list every stage race that Sky haven’t won ?

    I probably agree with you that in general the 'other' Tours are more fun than the TdF, but this is a forum, people debate, there's no need to get personal, though I'm pleased to see you've edited your comment to be less antagonistic.

    I wonder if quintana meant to get to the start ramp that late?

    Unless I'm mistaken, BMC are the first team to lead all three GTs in the same year since 2006 (Discovery Cahnnel).

    He did a cracking ride if he was late to the ramp.

    I didn't see the pre-edited comment from Shipley but, in fairness, your original comment was quite personal, antagonistic, frankly a little bit juvenile and added zilch squared to any debate.

    He had only just settled with count on 2 or 3 seconds! He must have been talking to member of team on 10 seconds or thereabouts. Very close

    I’m sorry to have upset you both, it wasn’t my intention. And yes, you didn’t see the unedited comment. I enjoy the debates, I’ve no intention to get into arguments so I’ll leave it there.
