That was cool though. The LIDL stuff is just a mess. Or is it ALDI? Whatever bulk buy supermarche it is.

The founders of Lidl and Aldi are brothers. Awks

Not true, you're thinking of Aldi sud and nord

Good interview with Remco. He's very open and gets into details that most would avoid.

he's bang into hardstyle which is cool (one of the songs he listed)

Not sure how you can be into that? I kind of understand that you could be in a situation where that is happening and go along with it, but to actively choose to listen to it would be an odd thing to do.

Ah, I now read it’s a common myth. Love those.

yeah - -really warm to him after this.

I cant get my head around how he went from a bit of cycling on the side and playing football to winning junior races in his first year.

Uk Tour series revival idea: all teams represent & are bankrolled by uk supermarket chains.

^ sort of thinking they should be having at BC towers & uk sport.

Right, no more tittle tattle. Remco will ‘normally’ stay at Quickstep. It’s sorted.

Shame Tesco discontinued there Tesco Value blue stripes. Could have mad a kit to rival Lidl Trek's

Eurosport are showing the Tour de l'Avenir next week. Stage 7 has two stages, an uphill time trial in the morning and a finish at Mont Cenis in the afternoon. One of the most beautiful places I've ever been too, should be a good race and lovely to watch.

Farmfoods Cycling ftw.

Spar

Spar Switzerland sponsored this year's Tour de Suisse

This is from the interview I embedded above. CN have just ripped off the transcript without even linking to the source, which is pretty bad form.

Yeah watched it last night. I think a fair translation of the second-language English would be: “I will honour my contract.”

I'm warming to this new Remco who effectively tells Lefevere to STFU, then demands improvements at QuickStep. I suppose he's got all the power right now and is one rider Patrick can't afford to get huffy with.

If there are no gold BOAs on his shoes it's a missed opportunity.

For a moment, all is right with the world.

Boring/crap WC bike paintjob IMO
