Pro-cycling thread

I think we need to wait and let this get resolved by the relevant authorities. All we have so far is one French politician/civil servant saying he doesn’t think it can go ahead and, as is the norm, the cycling twitterati have jumped on that and made a big story out of it. I’m sure ASO and the relevant authorities are in discussion and once they’ve come to a decision we’ll be informed.

yeah sure but what's the fun in that? I'm OUTRAGED!

I think we need to let the DSs and riders do their jobs and wait for the results of every race.

Thread closed.

Lol. A mod needs to hide this post ASAP.

Reported to the ADSA, the Armchair DS Association.

I think you're forgetting that I have friends on the committee.

I think you forget who chairs

Another second place for Cavendish in this morning’s opening stage in the Coppi-Bartali race in Italy.

Loving the armchair DS in the thread, if he'd have pedalled he'd have won.

You have no authority here - Read the standing orders. Read them and understand them!

Angry Cav is almost back!
We can all start hating on him again...

Second to a pro conti rider in a chipper.

True, but B team sprint train, for currently C team sprinter.

Looks like DQS only took 5 people to the race?

I see there’s a TTT this afternoon. Would be nice if they could win to put him in the leader’s jersey.

Cav in the leader's jersey.

Hurray!

How?

I thought you meant French Cav(agna)

ASDA: Cycled faster over the two stages than the other dudes*

*4" time bonus for finishing 2nd this morning and DQS were only 2" down in the TTT

Sounds like he pocketed the difference.

Whoops! My bad. Thought it was only one stage today. 😅
