Dauphine 2021 (With Spoilers)

[GuyBoden]

A bit of a stretching of the legs for the TdF.

Alejandro Valverde is currently in 4th place in the GC, early days, but not bad for an old man. 41 years old.

It will be interesting to see who is the leader for Ineos.

Primo Roglic must be fav to win GC.

This Roglic must be good if he is favourite to win a race he hasn't entered!

Stop trying to spoil the thread with actual facts.

It may be a pre TDF Tune up but there’s been a lot of great aggressive racing so far. The Sprinty boys are doing well but it will be won in the last two mountain stages.

Yes, he is that good......

Anyway, TT today, I like the TT, but this seems bit short and twisty.

Put the Dauphine on, promptly put it off again when I heard Carlton Kirby rambling and snickering and babbling inanely over it, like someone's half-cut, inappropriate old uncle filling in on hospital radio.

Won it quite convincingly to be fair. Coverage was a bit poor but there was a three up race to the line so the assumption being he had caught his one and two minute men!!

Richie Port rode well, especially seeing as he's from Tasmania.

Brian Smith was lost for words a few times and could barely disguise his irritation.
We should drop a line to Dan Lloyd!

Just finished watching the TT
Surprised to hear absolutely NO mention of Chris Froome - is he still in???

G did OK - seemed to have underestimated the final hills maybe.
We shal see when it all starts to go uphill!

His main target is the Tour de France - so we're mainly discussing him over on that thread.

The tours weeks away and going on current form unless he lays off the pies I doubt he'll be going.
