Ha ha  :thumbup:

 

I nearly did, until I realised that I actually hadn't put Bardet in my team last night, like I though I had. This fantasy league thing plays with my mind!

Nibs's peaking strategy towards TdF remains the same as last year.

He also pulled out of the heat during last year's climbs.

Some say he cracked. I say he's following his plan.

Nice one Bardet.. I love Tuesdays and Thursdays.. drop the boys off at extra maths and head to the bike shop down the road. . Get a lekker cuppa there and watch the cycling with everyone that has gathered there. Timing is perfect cause the boys finish at 3pm.

Ja, he has been saying the same thing in the media in the run up to the Dauphiné, so I hope this is just his way of getting ready for the showdown. :thumbup:

Absolutely, we must be careful to judge the performances of the top guys at Dauphine.

Its a bit of a false positive.

Is that like an Astana B team testing positive yet the A team testing negative?

IMO Nibs was looking quite comfortable compared to Froome and the other top contenders.

Didn't look like he cracked. . He just moved aside and checked the view.
