You know what? I'm gonna call out the biggest liar of this forum!

@Offline! Why you lying? I have seen you online!

@topcat probably isn't even a cat either...

Are...are...are you saying @Froome isn't....

 

[RedheadDane]

Are...are...are you saying @Froome isn't....

Yes!

However, I do believe that @Armchair cyclist could very well be sitting in an armchair, with one of these things in front of him:

While busy crunching numbers for the various CQ games he running.

Yesterday, I hit 7.5 w/kg for an hour at 2000m. It was a walk in the park.

Sorry, I meant I hit 7.5 km/h for 2000m during an hour-long walk in the park.

 

[Armchair cyclist]

We actually bought one of those for my mother-in-law, and I had my wife take a photo of me using it, in cycling kit, while sat in an armchair with the intention of putting it as my avatar, but I didn't like the pic in the end.

Now I need to crunch the numbers for the Spring Classics Game from Gent-Wevelgem.

I still can n't get over Red Rick yearning for the"Froome Era". It was a joke, right?

If he starts longing for Geraint Thomas to win the Tour again then we really need to start to worry about him.

If we define 'era' as a certain period of time, and not "i want Froomie back winning in July with that smug face again" then I mean it

I'm just being a nostalgic

 

[Netserk]

When you say it with love, you use the name "Nibali Era".

 

[Ripper]

What is the current state of the forum? I mean, there are oldies and newbies, trollers and debaters, experts and ill-informed. Same as it ever was I say.

But you don't know that. So you are potentially spreading your own falsities!!!!!!!!! Don't drink the hateraide!

Hateraide? Is that another quality cocktail in a can from the Kardashians?

It's part of retirement. Next comes Fantasy memories of Greatness and Wisdom, then the phase where your Grandkids help you operate anything mechanical or technical.

Marketing is too Klassy for their product line.

Mou has come down from altitude in the Sierra Nevada absolutely flying, I don‘t think anyone will be able to follow him the next few weeks.

Yeah, Pogačar is a nobody compared to mougačar.

I think I might have just seen an example of Armchair Cyclist modding away one of his own posts.

You did, but anyone can do that. I removed it because someone else said it first rather than it being something that shouldn't be on the boards.

I'm not a mod, but I'm hereby banning topcat from any sort of alcoholic beverages!

Spare a thought for the people of Turin who brace themselves tonight for an infestation of military aged men. Nearly all unmarried, they are completely UNVETTED and have taken up any available accommodation in the city. Reports are coming in of a tented shanty town in the outskirts.


Look, I am not Sportist at all but I simply wasn't consulted. Nobody minds a SMALL number of cyclists but most of these are not genuine cyclists, more akin to soccer players. Dozens are known to have red cards in other jurisdictions but they tear them up on the journey here.


Police say they are aware of the situation and have brought Larry and the fella' with the moustache out of retirement. Both were given batons and told 'Be sensitive, in the name of feck.'

I've been accused before. I don't drink. It's for the unimaginative.
