The Cycling Thread

So, all it takes to impress a lady is being able to discuss tea with a Yorkshireman. :thinking: No mean feat obviously but i’ve clearly missed a trick here.

Considering @SBYMs prowess with the ladies, knowledge of hard foam sausages and mankini’s he is clearly the the man.

Now where’s that masculinity thread again?

My mate was actually the the flag-waving marshal dude on the south side of Tower Bridge that day, like this guy.

Sean Kelly’s reaction to the above was fucking all-time…

Stunned silence

‘What’s that about?’

:rofl:

Was that you in the corner of the room?

Pretty amazing by QuickStep to delivery Jakobsen his 1st win, especially having to bring Yves Lampaert, the yellow jersey from TT, back after an accident that brought Lampaert down, and then have the yellow jersey acting as domestique and lead out.

EF Education did not have a great stage… involved in multiple crashes.

Finally on the fourth attempt? Pffff. Perhaps more science less art would help Wout dial in those victories. It’s as easy as being more Merckx less Sagan darling.

HAHAHAHAAHA

50% failure? Underwhelming… Is he angling for a job at ManU after cycling?

Superhuman. Sprints, breakaways, mountains. TTs…he’s got it all!

Roglic has fallen, a rogue bale of hay for cunt’s sake.

The Tour is over on Stage 5.

He could have at least waited until the third week to screw the pooch.

Geez…he dislocated his shoulder.

Fark. Got up and finished, across cobbles no less!!!

They’re tough blokes.
