Most news breaks on here, right?

It’s not just armchairs copy and pasting headlines from cycling websites without source as if they’re investigative journalists, is it?

Plane over Old Trafford, the only medium a football club owner understands.

Nairo contract extended! Tour 2025 podium is shaping up great!

Just need to coax Rigo out of retirement and into a super-domestique role; that would undoubtedly give Pogi sleepless nights.

still waiting in blissful ignorance* for Nairo’s baby brother to explode on the scene so they can do a one-two

*i at least know he rode a bike at one point

Just remembered, I had a dream about Rigo a couple of nights ago. He came to a wedding (I think it was mine, but don’t tell my wife).

/csb

My dream the other night was i was with allaphilippe and he had a go pro in his big black boot toe . He pealed back the toe cover to reveal his great invention !! Then i woke up !

You have a fevered imagination. My dreams involve people of great beauty and loose morals.

And sheep.

You from Yorkshire originally?

Well this time next year he will not have any competitors so place your bets now.

Nah, Sarf East London innit? Where anything of beauty is as rare as a 13 year old virgin and sheep are only available in plastic packaging.

The sheep in Yorkshire are better looking than Tom Pidcock.

I do wonder if he pukes after every single sprint race he does, and what that does to the body. And if he ever considered a change of food choice before races.

And if he ever considered a change of food choice before races

I don't think it's a food choice, track sprinters at all levels regularly get themselves to a bin after proper deep efforts in training & racing. It's a lactic acid thing iirc. There'll be better qualified/experienced folks here can clarify.

I thought the length of time the camera man spent showing us it was a bit much
