Bardet can't time trial? 

and did I read even the TT is on the hometown of Pinot or was it Bardet

 

Fair play, it's the Tour De France, I'd also try and tilt the course to suit a French winner.  Problem is the young guns on the scene will probably smoke them anyway

Yep, they will try to negate Bernal or Froome, and then some other youngster will come and demolish them.

 

There's a better video of a lion storming from something like 200m while rams fight, but I can't find it now. But this brings the message across.

Warren Barguil.

 

Another great French hope that often amounts to nothing more than a damp squib

In what way is he a damp squib? Genuine question here.

 

Cause he hasn't won a GT? He isn't hunting GC at Tours.

Cause he has been having some issues health/injury related in 2019 and a huge crash at Paris-Nice? 

10th at TdF?

2nd GC Norway?

1st National Champs?

Pinot’s apparently

The frenchies attempts to conjure a local winner is normal, AND will only fuel froomies and the other “expats” fires to beat them.... roll on

Froomey bringing up the rear of the peleton by some distance. He'll be hoping his form improves

Yeah... he should have opted for Boss....Hugo Boss

Hectic... His CV is about as impressive as they come for a pure climber.

 

Top 10 grand tour finishes, stage wins, Polka jersey, combativity prizes.....

 

Top 10 finishes at some of the classics.... Dunno about a wet squib.

 

I don't think he was ever a GC hope in anyones eyes was he? 2017 he lit up the TDF.

 

What interests me will be whether the current World Road Race champ gets 2 GT's or not.
