Sorry to see Roglic crash out- probably his last chance.</p> <p>There were lots of great individual stories - Bardet, Cav, Girmay, Campanaerts and the gravel stage was utterly awesome. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21567#post-375876 Tue, 23 Jul 2024 07:41:17 +0000 gembo 375876@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Our Velogames Fantasy competition was close this year as we all had Pogacar. Usual top spot looked like going to @Paddy Irish as per usual but he was pipped at the death by Allez Rankin, a very nice man from Balerno. Similarly I just pipped @Urchaidh for third.</p> <p>The overall winner of the whole shebang had figured out how to pick Pog and Remco and were fortunate that Girmay did so well in week one when Jasper Disaster was still huffing and puffing.</p> <p>Was a very great tour but there is no way to my mind they can do all that work and recovery without some form of as yet legal assistance.</p> <p>Both Jonas and Pog saying very tired and Pog not going to Olympics. Will he go for La Vuelta? He is in the best form of his life. For sure. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=21567#post-375863 Fri, 19 Jul 2024 15:28:28 +0000 gembo 375863@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Stage today unprecedented.
