I'll take an Cadel Evans avatar for a year if he finishes higher than a fit Gesink in the Tour (that means, no falls, no illness for both of them, fair battle etc)

Tempting bet, I'd be willing to do that one too. :D
Have you seen this years route? Sorry but you guys are pretty stupid and that bet it too funny not to say yes to.

Will Gesink be fully recovered by then??? Also i would make an amendment to that, I will take a Gesink Avatar if he places higher than Cadel at Valkenburg.

Well considering Cadel is working for Phil it wouldn't be surprising if Gesink finishes higher than Evans as Gesink is generally the team leader for Rabo at AGR.

Gesink has already fully recovered from his broken leg a while ago lad. He's been training very hard and will start his season in the Ruta del Sol

he'll probably just suck early season through to the ardennes with muscle loss and such.

could be a good thing. I don't really have high hopes for tour tbh, but I am still hoping for a situation where gesink goes vuelta gets him self in a good position and goes all out for the win.

gesink is still a bit of an unknown in regards to this season really.
 
Gesink at the TDF will invariably ( if he is fit enough ) find himself in the moves with Andy, Alberto, Samu and Dan Martin ( or any other climber ) to gain time on Cadel. However if he is not fit the best he could do is get a stage win but still finish in the top 20.

I also want Gesink to recover for the Vuelta ( the 10 MTF's suit him )

Why would you take that bet if you want to get rid of your avatar? Am I missing something here? At least take a bet that's winnable lol.

Say what, why don't you join the bet. You take a gesink avatar or signature if Gesink finishes higher than Evans?

If Timmy wants to get rid of his Evans avatar right now he can always swap to a Justin Bieber avatar :D

That is your only alternative!
