Try shouting for "B&B hotels vital concept"....when yer pissed !
Failing that think about King Kelly commentating,I'm sure it's going to be "dat hotel tingy"

Should have kept Dan Martin's bro...Guillaume

Not specifically TDF but Ineos leaders for the Giro,TDF.
Will Froome make it back to full fitness in time ?

I have no doubt that he's going to be there.

 

[roadrash]

I would need a spine transplant from a 12year old gymnast to do that

Can somebody cleverer than me (tough call, right?) . Are you there Adam, Roadrage?...
... explain to me how it's going to work out with Froome, Thomas and Bernal as joint leaders à la Movistar? What happens when one attacks on a mountain? The other two sit up? Fraught with trouble I'd have thought, and it was hard enough for Geraint last year when he had to back off Bernal.

Lol..tough call allright.
I'll go with..If Froomes hitting his targets,numbers he'll be the "chosen one" so to speak and looked after as long as possible.Hes not going to be a domestique I don't think.
Scenario 2.
Same as last year if it's Thomas and Bernal,It seems like maybe Thomas last chance whereas Bernal seems to have plenty in front of him ?
There's no way Dave the master of smoke and mirrors is going to be saying "tell you what lads just go and have some fun and see who's best !"
Scenario 3
I haven't a fecking.clue.

 

[roadrash]

I haven't a fecking.clue.

And that's exactly what brailsford intended, don't give the other teams any clue as to who they should be marking.
