Tour de France 2016 **SPOILERS**

TDD Qhubeka team looks star-studded!
Berhane (1st tdf) renshaw, cav, EBH, dan tek, pauwels, cummings, bernie h & rensburg should see a few of the black white & green in the pton & breakaways?
I just hope their one of the teams thats got the sprinters & leadouts to put an end to sagans dominance?

Question is, which stage has Cummings earmarked as his? I reckon stage 16 could be a good one to bet on.

Look for The Chain.

Bouhanni out due to his hand not recovering from colliding with a set of dentures in his hotel punch up. He needs to take some lessons from The Badger or give up the boxing.

Cheers, i've removed him from my velogames team.

I'm starting to look at the weather for the first two stages. Stage 1 looks like it will be hit by a nasty westerly crosswind, made worse as the route tracks the coast for much of the day. ...
(It'll also be in my face for the ride from the ferry at Caen to the finish at Utah Beach. Fecking great )

I've just taken a refresher on Météo France and for Stage 1 they're now predicting 25km/hr westerlies on the coast with 55km/hr gusts. I predict entertainment.

You heard it here first. Cummings will get greedy and win 2 stages!

Replying for no other reason that if this doesn't come off you won't be able to to delete your post and claim you never said it ;-)

On the BBC website there is a useful stage by stage analysis by Geraint Thomas

S at in Mt st Michel, it's very quiet. Do not understand. Why? Parked in a field with many others saying the same thing.

 

[themosquitoking]

It's quiet but you're with many others?

They must be expecting someone else to be interestingly noisy....and then complain about it

Bl00dy foreigners no doubt.

Sitting here, parked in a field, nobody making a noise. Looking at other people being quiet and parked...

...and then them fecking foreigners start speaking.

I'm on the ferry to Caen and its heaving. We're talking all the languages of Europe. It's just beautiful man.
