Tour De France 2018

If that is the longer term goal then it will be interesting to see if he stays at Quickstep, not the team to be on if you want to race for the overall, just ask Dan Martin.

I also like the comparison to Begbie

hard man, maybe a bit too much... (although he didn't feel it was broken when he decided to try to finish the stage with 2 cols to go after his crash). ouch.

I can’t help being extremely nervous for G. Suddenly he has something to lose and I’m desperately hoping he has a good enough day to hang on to yellow. My personal view is that he has been simply brilliant for British cycling both on the road and the track and it would be a fantastic reward for all that hard work. He’s approachable and seems to have a straightforward view on life on the bike.
‘Let’s just smash it and see what happens’.

Yep. I’d love to see Thomas win it - or at least podium. Fingers crossed.

wfh ftw

I think anyone expecting fireworks tomorrow is going to be sorely disappointed.

Just flares and piss then?

Nearly all the makings of a good weekend in Moscow. Just needs midgets.

Everyone should register fake accounts and ask variations of the same question today... and for the rest of time.

That. Looks pure mario kart

Fake, it's just closer to the camera

Shit is what I mean

So weird

will they have someone holding the bike, like they do at the track, or will they have to track stand, or will they just have their foot on the floor?
so many questions..

Only team sky will have someone holding the bike due to budget.

There can't be 20 extra pedestrians on the grid. It'll be foot down I'm sure.

Pinarello kickstands - marginal gains.

Stands that elevate the rear wheel. Get it spinning then slam it down for mad traction starts.

Like, you know, a clutch.

Self balancing bikes, surely.

Should also help mr. Thomas keeping upright.
