  2. Robbie !!! Great pics gummibear, any of Froome or Daryl ?
  3. My first choice is Segan, but the others should be Cancellara, Wiggins or even Gustav Larson. I think the course it to short for Martin and Evans.
  4. Luckily you can join multiple Leagues The code does work for both leagues, just tested it now. If you make your team choice it will be the same over all the Leagues, no need to make it again for the others. I've joined both, good luck guys, and ladies. Let the racing begin.
  5. I know we are running our own competition on theHub but, I found this game on the net last year that is being run by Bicycling.com . It is one of the best, if not the best, Tour de France fantasy game I have ever played where you can buy and sell riders and teams during the Tour to try and get the most points. On each stage the riders and teams get awarded points for EVERYTHING you may think of. So if you ever thought that it will be cool to be a Pro Manager or if you think you know your riders come and join me on this one. Below is the link to register ( if you haven’t played it already ) and my league name and code ( just copy and paste it ). The rules are explained nicely on the website. First picks need to be in by Saturday morning. www.udt.co.za/tourdefrance League name: Go for yellow League code: 17584280905296
  6. With about 6 or 7 good contenders for the GC it will be an awesome game. The KOM, Best Young Rider and Team classification is also wide open this year. Thanks Geraldm24. Ps. Your first post says 2011 and that might confuse some newbies, maybe edit it to 2012
  7. Don't be surprised if they have 3 riders under the top 10 at the end of the Tour.
  8. We will know this afternoon after the Radioshack press release if Andy is going to ride. Doesn't look like it. Rumours have it that he is out for almost 2 months.
  9. Wiggins. He has the strongest team in the mountains.
  10. One more from the parade
  11. At the Spain game on Friday :
  12. My wife with the Brasil fan handing out free stuff.
  13. Brazil vs Korea There were about a hunderd Brazilean people outside of Ellispark handing out info about KAKA and his Christian faith plus we got free water as well from them.
  14. We went to 2 games so far (Brazil vs Korea and Spain vs Chile) plus the parade in Sandton. Here are a few of mine :
  15. Both are good mags, but I like Ride. More roadie stuff in it, with race reports.
  16. Got some pics of that stage gummibear ? I see Frank won that stage and lost the tour by 1 second.
  17. Us roadies also get down and dirty sometimes
  18. This was one of the best Giro stages, hell, any Tour stage I have ever seen on Saturday. Wish Paris Roubaix could look like this again one year
  19. ACQUA E SAPONE
  20. Some of the porn on display at the Giro, please post some more if you can find
  21. Slave ... response not directed at you personally. ? Because humans ?feel that only their OPINION counts; they better than other human beings but they forget one fundamental fact ... GOD CREATED ALL EQUAL ...?if you have more intellectual capacity' date=' try and share with (help)?those that?has less than you .... ? ?[/quote'] Why am I thinking of the book Animal Farm. "All animals are equal BUT some are more equal than others" Alas, I don't think we are all equal.
  22. We are still in shock over what happened to Adam. We are so sorry for your loss Bruce and Angela. What each of us can also maybe think of doing is joining hands this Saturday in the cradle. There is a BIG awareness program for cyclists that will hopefully be the start of bigger things in the future. The problem with our country is that we have First World Roads with Third World Drivers on it ! Also motorists are always in a hurry, I personally still don't know why and they get irritated by the smallest thing when they are behind the wheel ??!!??
  23. And what the ... happened last night on E-News ?!? How can they put a AWB leader who is clearly very emotional at the moment next to a black female "analyst" and not expect fireworks. It happened already on Monday and Tuesday on Freek's program on SABC. The media is putting more fuel on the fire !!!!!
