  1. YES PLEASE. DM me, I'll pay for it, and shipping.
  2. Evenepoel already signed a 5yr extension. or should I say for 5 years. Alaphillipe and Asgreen with 3year extensions.
  3. Yeah as stated in my above comment, Was busy reading the article about Bennett and Almeida leaving and Sagan joining, mind was abit wonky.
  4. LOL sorry was thinking of the Wolfpack when typing this and Sagan as I was just reading he may be joining them next season, Proper fail my side
  5. So no punishment for the way Sagan pushed and barged his way through the bunch to sprint on stage 2 because nobody fell. If riders had fallen, Would Sagan only then have been penalized? So UCI are reactive rather than proactive in their approach to penalties for dangerous riding?
  6. When I see things like this, It makes me like the kid even more and pray he has a massive career ahead with many more stage wins...
  7. I also still have my Livestrong band on my arm. I wear it as a reminder of all the cancer patients out there and the friends and family I've lost to cancer. From the 1st time I put it over my wrist up until today, it has never ever been taken off. When I was still playing cricket and football I had to put tape over it to cover it up as it bulged when trying to put it under my glove straps, mainly for football though as it wasn't allowed as no accessories are. It's extremely thin now and stretched, everytime my 5yr old daughter pulls on it i get scared it's going to snap but hasn't as yet.(If anyone has a yellow Livestrong band laying about, Please let me know)
  8. You named your son EPO?? LOL i kid i kid, I love the bloke too. I still say, if you have given every rider at the time the same PED's Lance was taking, he would still have won everything he did. I may be wrong, I may be right, but we will never know.
  9. The wolfpack did a solid job and getting rid of all contesting team sprinters to set it up for Sagz, But Taco had the ride of his life!!
  10. 3 stages(OK forget the 1st, the monster Ganna was always fav) But stage 2 and stage 3 had 2 GT debut teams and 2 GT debut riders and 2 stage wins. I love this kinda thing, no matter what happens for the rest of the Giro, these guys will never ever forget their 1st ever GT.
  11. Luckily he isn't related to Nico...
  12. And already he isn't liked by many because the ignorant loud mouths are unhappy with him saying that the older guys need to step aside and he wants to start working with a younger squad to build up for the future.
  13. The OP stated the he was contacted after an OLX ad so bikehub pay not applicable here.
  14. https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/chris-froome-salbutamol-case-sparked-fall-out-between-uci-and-wada/ So neither organization wants to take responsibility then.
  15. The only problem bigger than the scamsters are the cops in terms of reliability, Let's hope you get a good detective, otherwise that case file is just going to gather dust unfortunately.
  16. Hi Shawn, Where did he get your contact info, where was the bike advertised for sale etc. Was his MO the same as many others that it's a gift for a cousin or nephew and it's a surprise? You say the driver only collected, Where/How did the scammer contact the driver, Who does the driver work for, from whom did the driver get your address, who paid the driver for the collection and how was he paid and where did he deliver the bike to once he picked it up and left your place? I reckon these are all the questions the cops need to be asking the driver and doing an investigation on. Dump the drivers phone, check all records, signal towers etc. Anyway, Real sorry to hear about your misfortune, Some expensive school fees paid.
  17. So no SAFFAS at the Giro this year then? Can Assos-Qhubekha really call themselves the "African" team then? Yes maybe they will have a SAFFA at the Vuelta or TdF later in the year, But the 1st Grand Tour and not 1 SAFFA riding? Sad times..
  18. https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/israel-start-up-nation-unveil-new-kit-for-giro-ditalia/ Different from their traditional white and blue, But nice.
  19. Over the 2 legs Kante was simply phenomenal. Doesn't get the praise he deserves unfortunately. League winner with Leicester then Chelsea, also a WC winner. If Chelsea manage to get over the line vs City, I feel Kante is going to have a massive role to play in that match. Also, How Good was Mendy last night, Real could've been 2-0 up in the 1st 20.
  20. If anyone is wondering why the United fans are protesting against the Glazers, I think the Super League is just a crumb in the loaf of bread. Follow the thread below and it will explain the all the fans unhappiness.
  21. I think you're talking about the Ellis Park disaster in 2001. Stadium capacity was 60 000, At the time of kick off there were already double that total in the stadium and still 10s of thousands outside. It was the fans outside who forced their way in when the game kicked off and this lead to a stampede essentially where over 40 people were killed. Two seasons or so ago at CT Stadium, CT City were playing Kaizer Chiefs, they only had tickets available for 35000 and all those tickets were sold, When the game kicked off, the thousands of fans outside the stadium forced their way in causing a massive delay and game had to be restarted.
  22. Not sure if you've ever heard of the place called South Africa, The above is a daily occurrence and full time job for some.
  23. Maybe he's a #KetoForTheWin kinda guy?
  24. And then add a massive carry bag under handlebars too??
  25. Yes ofcourse how could I forget 2018/2019. Liverpool vs Tottenham UCL Chelsea vs Arsenal UEL
