The mou-meme was perhaps tangentially funny last Tour. Been quite a while since he morphed into the kind guy who is funny at the start of the party, but at the end is dead-drunk, spouting nonsense and just wont leave. Time to stop giving him oxygen.

Kids, I put inexorable in the title as he'll one day be free of the yoke of Jonas.

Hard to beat this for wacky/cool-combo:

How about we do a homage to the worst unipuerto stages of La Vuelta, just set in China? No? Ok - how about we throw a long finishing descent into the mix in addition? YES! THAT'S THE GOOD STUFF

I foresee a conundrum on whether to rename this into "The bald assassin" by 2027.

Not one to solve, but a headline I still pine for someone to use: Job Bungles

Just like Mikel himself I'm out of the running already on the first stage, though his pain is markedly bigger than mine.

I've heard that Remco is a Roar Ljøkelsøy-stan.

As I feared. Hope he find peace now.

Cracking the top 10 :cool:

Should accept that the injuries have left him with a too narrow base for a GC-tilt at the Tour. Target a few stage wins and build for a sustained peak in the fall rather than wear himself out. Could start to fear for his longevity

Hey man, he didn’t sit up! Progress!

The Stefan Küng of the Ardennes

Yes! Rode the sportive which was both wonderful and excruciating. The tarmac of Flanders and Wallonia is probably equally bad, but feel it most with the repeated descents of the latter. And riding the parcours before seeing the warriors take it on really makes you appreciate their effort even...

I’m going full Marco Haller and attacking on the flats to have a head start on the climbs.
