Watched it live, what a group of 4 that was. Great stuff

 

Milan  San Remo, Paris Roubaix and 2 rainbow jerseys. Quite the season

Imagine if he gets the MTB XCO too!  First male Elite rider ever to do it.

IMO I don't think he will.  I think Sunday would have taken a lot out of him, plus he hasn't ridden any of the World Cup rounds at all so will be gridded quite far back.

I don't really watch the MTB so don't know much about. Going to tune in for this  though

@spongebob toonpantswow. Just fucking wow. To watch Pidcock win today's world's in front of a home crowd is spectacular. 

 

When he was 16 I raced against him. He was superb then on the MTB. Technically he was head and shoulders above anyone.  I've raced against him on the road. Again he was head and shoulders above. 

 

Today I went to the Ineos truck with a mutual friend. We were invited in. I had a chat with Pauline Ferrand Prevot. Then Tom and our mutual friend had a laugh. He won and wow. What a champ. He's come on leaps and bounds and emotional saying this but he's a legend now.

I was in Glasgow yesterday and saw the road races 

First time I've been to Glasgow. Spent most of it looking at the architecture. Fuck me. Some absolutely stunning buildings. What a city.

Have you watched LBL?

I must say Amstel has been the best Men's race this year.  The rest have been a fucking snooze fest.  The Women's racing has been fucking superb.

Its almost Giro time, someone always get's popped before, so I hope it's Pogi, that cunt deffo has a motor lol

Jumbo have had fuck all luck this season.

DVB and Kruiswijk both out after that crash. DvB is a massive rider for them in the Tour so hopefully nothing serious.

Albeit moot as Poggi will have an upgraded motor by then anyways.

Cavendish is to be knighted. 

 

I fucking loathe the establishment and tbh if I was a sportsman I would politely decline any honour. 

 

Cav is a fucking beast and has given me so many great memories. He's a legend. 

 

But

 

Sinfield?
