    Mind you, Sep is looking rather frisky...
    We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

    Where's the Valium?

    Left the room and came back to think the TV had switched to horse racing.

    I'm please that no one has criticised my inclusion of Vanmarcke as five stars. I realise this is probaly due to it not being read or no one bothering to post about it, but I'm taking it as acceptance.

    I automatically interpreted it as "stars if they don't get a mechanical". Without that adjustment he's one star at most. So basically, he's one star.
    And thus it came to pass.
    Carlton described Vanmarke as "corrupting his bike", which seemed unusually insightful.

    Did the commissaire's car go over the bike of the rider who crashed in the break? Must have been close.

    I'll say one thing, watching this race sober is weird :D

    Van Baarle looking very lively, gets caught and goes again straight away.

    Still a very big peloton. Riders clipping off and regrouping and van Baarle goes a third time.
  • ProssPross Posts: 32,835
    Decent gap now and has Bardet of all people for company.
  • rick_chaseyrick_chasey Posts: 62,410 Lives Here
