"Ever noticed that a few weeks before the tour starts there and increase in the amount of blokes in Lycra riding racing bikes out on the roads  "
Not really.. Cos there's so many of them.. Me included..out there year round these days anyway.
The whole cycling thing has just exploded in the last few years.

"So the next three weeks will be full of bulging thighs and discussions of suspected drug use.
Do you watch it? Do you like it?
Looking good so far. What a course in the wet."
Been watching the tour since the 80's, seen brilliant riders come and go. Cycling is a soft target for doping, but then look at other sports it is there just not wildly publicised. |

I totally agree about the fact it's a target. I first started watching it late 80's and have loved it ever since. I just wish we could focus on the cycling and not the other stuff. But with the high degree of testing it's bound to catch people just other sports don't test to the same degree and therefore have less news about it.
Today was great and at last G has got a well deserved stage win and to wear yellow for at least a day. Looking forward to another great tour. |

Poor Cav breaking his shoulder. And Peter Sagan getting disqualified. I thought that Arnaud Demare did worse by cutting across 3 riders! His actions were just as bad and Peter used his elbow to protect himself and it was in front of Cavs body and only seems to touch Cavs arm.
