@looflol Vingegaard 😂 could easily argue Sagan is a waste of a space too. Armstrong won 6 Tours this millenia, Contador the best GC rider. Nibali won all three grand Tours and two monuments. Boonen / Cancellara / MvdP dominant in the classics.
You could add up every IPL, Big Bash or 100 game ever played and none of it would match the drama of what has just happened between Lancashire and Hampshire and this title race as a whole. Yet again the County Championship is proving to be magnificent drama. #CountyChampionship
@DaveBall65@Pabel5Pabel @KevinTurveyRIP @Nigel_Farage No it wasn't... I worked on a fruit a veg stall with the most prominent display being the price in imperial with metric displayed underneath. You buy 4 pints of milk still, with 2.26 litres printed next to it
@PentonyConor@VelocastJohn I think there's mitigating factors - faster pure sprinters absent or gone home, more sprinters are able to climb well like all rounders now. Cav hasn't done anything absurd this year, he could quite easily be getting beaten by Ewan had he not crashed.
@r_d_alexander That's a good point and in a normal tour it'd be a tactical master stroke. But yesterday Pogacar put 3+ minutes into everyone just by riding off. It'll be different in the wind, but this is a very odd Tour de France; almost nothing like modern cycling.
I think the only way to beat Pogacar is crazy long distance attacks, Landis style. Is it worth the risk of failing and losing a heap of time and GC position? The Ineos train today just made it easier for him to attack if anything, a bizarre tactic.
@carolinenotts Is it fair to say Brexit has made our streets less safe Caroline? No Europol, access to databases or European Arrest Warrant. I'd love to hear your views as a concerned Notts resident
@carolinenotts I probably wouldn't bother voting for the PCC usually but I'll make a special effort to do so this time, just to do my bit to stop you getting into office with that nonsense
@BarryHambly@WestemeyerSusan He can remember which doctors worked with which riders though? He hasn't gone out all guns blazing accusations everywhere. Just quite sensible points on hypocrisy and doctors really
