As a rule, I hate retro crap. I'm like Barney Stinson, "New is always better".

 

But I really dig this, and the classic Pug is a nice touch.

And, crucially, no white shorts. I got a warning for expressing my opinion of those just the other day.

I had a green Pug like that(without the rally trim)

Called it The Cockroach

This has to be one of the greatest retro outfits and reasoning for a retro outfit in the history of road cycling.

Holding thumbs for MvdP to get yellow for Poupou...

For sure.  I'll pay good money for that jersey!!!  Nothing beats class....

 

Imagine MvdP getting yellow on stage 1.  I certainly wish that dream comes true!!!

Weather still rainy in Brittany as forecasted a week ago? 

Not necessarily pouring, but it isn't summer sunshine either.

Seems the entire Brittany will be overcast with some drizzle for the first three days. Classics stages at the start of Le Tour? Yes please!

Oooooh... Eh... Eh...

Some GC contenders to lose minutes in the opening days, meaning they need to claw it back.

We can only hope!

Fine, if you play the sentiment card like that, I will concede.

Stage 1. MvdP(1st) - WvA(2nd) - JA(3rd)
Stage 2. WvA(1st) - JA(2nd) - MvdP(3rd)

This way, WvA takes over Yellow after stage 2 ????

Thats sounds like a plan to me .... ????.  Unfortunately it never works out how we want ????.

I'm a Merckx, Lance and Valverde fan. I hope Wout wins. Sentiment with winners, not eternal seconds...
