    Well the unfortunate Hobbs aside, my entire squad that went to Spain/Mallorca had a nice time on the beach, maybe turning in the odd training ride.

    Double or nothing - the electric Paul dognel thread

    I too will be rooting for him this week. 2 stages with climbing so he should at least be up there on GC.

    Well that's an odd reply.

    Pretty terrible day for me ... saved only by Kron, who is now pretty much my only hope of GC points, unless there's a surprise breakaway winner. Good race for the Vinos.... edit. Just checked, thankfully there is only one.

    I hope the young Dane kicks his ass again. No offence (I am Brennanless).

    This is the one rider I am truly miffed that I didn't pick, He is, as I have said before, a big fave in our house. So I will still cheer for him. I was just not confident that he'd continue his career if things went west early this season.

    Pellizzari says "How very dare you?" Aussies were a bit of a surprise even to the manager. Chamberlain and Dinham were legacy 2025 picks. The other two were cheap street corner floozies who gave me the eye with a promise of premature ecstasy.

    Don't any of you appreciate that my "pin the tail on the donkey" approach perhaps has its merits? Hmmm? Even if it is only for one or two weeks of the year, before I slide down to mid-table.

    .9 days to the TDU. What frivolity am I going to spend all that time on.... the Aussie Nationals are such a tease.

    Well, my customary decent start down under.... and without Plapp this time. Glad I stuck with Dinham and Chamberlain. Dinahm, Chamberlain and McKenzie all into profit. Nice.

    That was before we saw him riding like a numbnuts for a season with hope in our hearts.
