Tony Fearon has been dethroned, Hail the new Tony
I hope you are man enough to sit on that saddle and not have a flapping beer belly hanging over.
Well done.

Nice win, you're the 2nd skitehead I know who's won on those competitions, I've entered once myself

Great to see the Pro cycling back in full flight. Jumbo Visma going to be hard talked to at the TDF, savage strong looking team. Frome not looking too clever at the Dauphine today. His Tour spot not even guaranteed.

Froome was riding like this before he won the Giro. Although i fear those injuries might be just too much to come back from. Roglic is looking in serious shape although the tour this year wouldn't be the route he was hoping for. One 36km TT up to la planche des belles filles doesnt give Roglic the opportunity to put time into Bernal that he would have had if it there was a long flatish TT. So 2 mins or so advantage to Bernal there. Pogacar is my EW shout. Tour will be different this year in that there isn't an opportunity to "ride yourself in to form" as sometimes they do. There are mountains from the get go and if not on form in first week it could be curtains for plenty. Stage 17 looks a killer with summit finish over 2300mtrs.
Good to see Fabio Jakobsen on the road to recovery after arguably the worst crash i've ever saw in Tour of Poland.

Thomas & Froome both dropped from the TDF squad, bit of surprise with Thomas. Thomas to lead at Giro and Froome at La Vuelta.

Will any of the Grand Tours go ahead anyway tho the way Covid numbers are heading.

Given the dauphine form i suppose it isnt that much of a shock. Sivakov is going very well at the moment and could be outside bet to podium.

Yeah, not a major surprise and means there is less distractions for Bernal. Interesting to see how Carapaz goes too. Quite a mountainous route this year, should make for interesting watching.

I'll have to follow up on Pinot again after him breaking my heart last year, looked in decent nick at the Dauphine as well.

Jumbo Visma's to lose, savage strong team. Bernal got a bit lucky last year, I wouldn't put tuppence on him repeating it this year tbh.

You know something the more I think about this, the more I think the TDF is not going to happen because of rising covid numbers, Brailsford could be looking after British lads by diverting them to the other GTs.

Last years 3rd Steven Kruijswijk (Lotto Jumbo) out after Dauphine crash has proven worse than thought. He goes for giro now instead. A fair blow to Lotto Jumbo.
