Tour de France 2017

Cycling's sponsors make me lol. It's laser-targeted at MAMILS.

Magic shampoo that brings back your hair!
Fancy watches to woo your secretary!
Yes, you can be young and attractive (just like these pencil-thin lads) if you throw enough money at the problem!

This wins for me:

Watching the highlights show yesterday my ladywife saw the WF ad and said "he's riding fucking slow, what are they selling? It's shit whatever it is. PUT SOME EFFORT IN!" which made me lol.

I love this cooking revolution.

Seriously, has anyone seen the Macej Bodnar 90-minute cooking show though? It's been pulled from YT, presumably for a copyright violation.

watchfinder guys seems to be permanently running at 1/10th normal speed
or is he just being really careful with that expensive watch

You reminded me that The Oatmeal exists, and that's not an ideal situation.

^hair required @Aroogah ;)

Nothing has made me think more than that WF ad that cycling is the new golf.

This is his 18th TdF in a row.

He rode his first Tour aged 18? Impressive.

This is his 18th consecutive GT ride, but he's started 25 GTs so far in his career.

18 in a row is insanely consistent. Chapeau.

it's raining musettes

thats where you want to be, 2km after the fed station

Why is he fingering the brakes on a flat, straight road with no traffic? This annoys me.

Wearing an expensive watch while riding also annoys me, obviously. Presumably expensive watch wearers wouldn't risk smashing their beloved time piece by riding in it?

rehydrating ... wtf ?

he's only travelled about 200m

I'm as excited to see a new advert with him, as I am to see his sprint finish wins. Bora should have a 100000% increase in sales if only cyclists bought one less bike per period.

Re Watchfinder, the complete reel becomes an epic narrative of purposefully slow progress:

^ that's awful, couldn't they find someone that's actually ridden a bike before? And that guy isn't exactly a super model.

Advert for luxury goods worth thousands, can't stump up more than £150 for a bike and kit for the advert.

Man wants to spend £250 on a bike, but £2500 on a watch.

Oh. 2slow.

I'm seeing hairy legs, Sora and a suspicion of S&S couplers
