fabs Posted July 6, 2018 Share If this race were politics it could play out as follows: - Race is under threat from disruption and image issues. - Sky taking heat because of Froome. - Froome in potential danger from lunatic fringe. Solution. Froome rides a few days, has a minor "incident" and withdraws from the race and is compensated for his disappointment and comes back next year and wins his fifth tile...…. Minor "incident" being a French frozen baguette across the face, to the chant of "allez les bleus" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMartin Posted July 6, 2018 Share Stopped cycling 18 months ago and stopped visiting here at the same time. Turns out I still like watching the racing and really enjoyed the Giro, obviously. Then I remembered how much fun it was to watch with you lot and decided to join in with the fun. I seem to remember everyone was really friendly and no one ever got nasty and we all agreed with each other about everything. Oh and there are no Sagan fans at all and we all love Froome and team Sky. Is it still like that. Will I be safe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirt Tracker Posted July 6, 2018 Share Do you think the fact that BMC are mostly likely folding could effect Richie Portes support from his team? A lot of the riders will have been negotiating, looking for or signed with new teams, teams that are also riding the tour with GC or stage ambitions. There is always the comment about riders at worlds being called on to ride for their trade team leaders in certain situations. Could there be a worry for Porte in keeping the team he's brought rallied around him for the whole tour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMartin Posted July 6, 2018 Share I assume you stopped cycling due to a crash and you fell on your head as to me it seems as if your memory might be slightly faded ... Fair question. I did fall on my head on several occasions actually. Fell on everything just about. It was fun. I may start again but no more racing for me. Too time consuming. Truth is I missed the enthusiasm and knowledge I found on this forum when watching the races. It added a whole level of fun to the races. I see a lot of the same names around still. Is that mad woman with the passion for Sagan still around, Gen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMartin Posted July 6, 2018 Share And the Lady Pro’s thread is still going. What a disappointment. Can’t believe women are objectified like that. Awful. Imagine a woman behaved like that about a male cyclist. Wouldn’t happen of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
