Simon Yates is “picking his lines all the way through and he’s writing them as well. What a script it’s his choice how dramatic this is going to be. “. I am going to scream next time he says it’s a very select group or that a rider is taking a toot(a drink). Ned Boulting and David Millar on ITV4 for the Tour are just so much better. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18798#post-282970 Sun, 20 May 2018 17:21:44 +0000 minus six 282970@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>another awe inspiring stage today</p> <p>the giro never disappoints </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18798#post-282969 Sun, 20 May 2018 16:21:20 +0000 gembo 282969@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Froome had huge number of ticks in his interview afterwards. Looked like he was coming down off some kind of stimulant?</p> <p>Has been a great race. Yates looked knackered. He needs to put more time into Dumoulin again in hills today. Dumoulin can take two mins from him in a time trial which is a poor way to win in my book. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18798#post-282903 Sat, 19 May 2018 09:33:28 +0000 minus six 282903@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>massive day at the giro</p> <p>monte zoncolan </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18798#post-282467 Sun, 13 May 2018 17:46:18 +0000 gembo 282467@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Smiler that I used to pick was fortunate on Etna </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18798#post-282465 Sun, 13 May 2018 17:09:16 +0000 minus six 282465@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>fantastic stage finish today </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18798#post-282220 Wed, 09 May 2018 21:03:15 +0000 Cyclingmollie 282220@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Good grief, Team <strike>Banana</strike> Suggestive Fruit are in second place!

Does anyone do that? </p>
