apyssjw I had to get up at 4 and ride to the start for 5:15. I’m fucking shattered.
Along_the_Wire Harsh. Yeah I rode to the start and back, but dispute having a start time of 8.50 didn’t actually start until nearer 10. The front group (you?) we’re coming back down the A12 as I was going out.
apyssjw I was the second group as it got split due to a crash. Still annoyed about it.
Missed it as I’ve been slumming it at an all inclusive in St Lucia.
Some mates blagged it and even got medals at the end the cheeky duckers!

Cavendish looking good going into Le Tour. Can’t wait for things to start.
LT42 I’d be surprised to see him on the start line, but he did his bit today.
LT42 He’s not made the team sadly. No Alaphillipe either.
Along_the_Wire yeah, disappointing. Was looking forward to seeing him again. Ah well, last year’s memories will last a long time. That 1st stage win was one of the best sporting moments I’ve ever witnessed.
Just watched the highlights it the national race, Cav is literally on fire at the moment, what a shame he won’t be on the start line this friday
I don’t understand the sport enough but why would he not be selected? Its obvs not a form thing
LT42 His team have another sprinter who has won more races this season is one of the reasons.
He is younger and very talented but Cav has proven his quality in the tour so a tough shout.
The manager can be erratic also
I also think they don’t a Belgian team want him breaking Eddy Merckx record of most wins.
An injury and he jumps in? Like last year
Is Bennett involved this year?
Think he’s letting off some steam Liqui.
Someone put out the flames on Ed’s back, on fire!
Lol!
Guilty!
Saw the Quickstep team out on stage last night in Copenhagan with a pic of Cavendish from last year’s race on the big screen behind them. Strange.
Apparently Cavendish found out he wasn’t competing on social media. Stinks if true.
Thinking of rinsing my cycle to work scheme for a gravel bike. Hit me with your recos, you daft cycle weirdos. Current front runner is the Cannondale Topstone 4.
Millsy This feels familiar, have you mulled this over before??
