2014 Pro-cycling season thread

I bet Trek would love a Fromme vs Wiggins dilema...

Lynette 'Squeaky' Fromme? They want a Manson Family member to assassinate Wiggo?

Here's hoping Orica take at least one Yates.. Otherwise who we cheer for?

Your favourite rider or team for reasons of bike racing or personality, rather than the one which is relevant based on the lottery of birth (or in the case of Wiggins, not even that)?

COME ON RYDER!!!!l!!

You don't take neo-pros to the Tour, irregardless of how good they are.

Regardless.

irregardlessly

Work has, unhelpfully, given us new computers that don't have TV tuners. So I can't watch the TdF this year. Online feeds have never, ever worked for me. Is there something I can subscribe to on the iPad for a month or two?

Can you not think of a reason you need a TV on your desk? Everyone has them here. Do you not have IPTV?

Clue: "Media monitoring".

Contador.

this^

Contador can get to fuck. As can Riis. And that cunt Tinkov.

I am rooting for Cound's twitter.

"rooting"

she's sleeping now..

No need to mince your words, Andy :)
Tell us what you really think..

But... without fail the heart flutters every time Alberto starts dancing for us.

So is J.Rodriquez mended, fit and fighting for the tour or is the talk of 'free-rein for stage wins' just hot air?

Also Rolland is riding... as in riding The Tour after riding (extremely well) at the Giro. He'll be a hero if he doesn't fall to pieces.

Hopefully Cuntador and Skellator will cancel each other out and someone decent can win.

Not Ryder tho, he's a sack-300 quid sunnies or no.

Would quite like Van Garderen to have a good stab at it, and BMC's got a good line up-he's got Burghardt, Moinard, Schär, Oss, Van Avermaet, Velits, Atapuma and Stetina backing him up.

Valverde, and I'm not even joking.

lol

really?

You must be the only person outside Spain that thought has even occurred to.

He has just lost a race to Roche!!!!! <<< and I'm not even joking.

...however he's won pretty much every other race he's ridden this year.

Yeah - I have to agree.

(Not about Valverde though. He can >>>>>>>>>>>>>)

Him and that wee fanny Cunego are like the unwanted relatives at a family barbeque, you know that they qualify on some level but you just resent them turning up.

Ultimately I would just fucking love it if Sagan went full-Merkx and just monstered everything.
