Ok, who of you was the guy with the "Ulle war sauber" (Ulle was clean) poster on thr climb a few minutes ago?
My pick would be @Bavarianrider

I'm disappointed that @QueenStagiaire or any other forumite at the race didn't dress up as a car exhaust. Remember the fans dressed up as syringes running after Froome. Now that was funny.

Couldn‘t find my car exhaust costume, must have been stuck at the very bottom of the drawer

@Netserk , can you please choose a different avatar? I think this might lead to confusion. Just change it to Bambi or a GIF of Valverde sliding into a fence or something.

There are now at least 5 threads about Pog. I remember when mods limited the number of Froome threads.
Pog is dominating cycling. I don't want him to dominate the forum.
Is Pog more or less popular after PdB? On the forum and generally.

Pog will lose some popularity after the Tour. He has always been a cycling monster but July humblings definitely attracted some people to him as he showed human side, showed some weakness. This year it's just demolition after demolition after demolition. Following PdB and Isola H-bombs even I was like What's going on? The guys feels no fatigue after the Giro.

Or a black and white photo of Tom Boonen.

I aim for maximum confusion until @Samu Cuenca picks a better avatar!

How many avatar bets did you get involved in?
What would you have done if you'd lost them all?

State of cycling: gassed
State of the forum: exhausted

The prr forum is unreadable (mutton dressed up as lamb).
The clinic is amusing but could really benefit from a good fight between fmk_rol and The Hog.

This Bambi?

Classic X-files character!

Just to let all you fans know, I'm semi-retired from cycling analysis. Gymnastics is where it's all happening. I will make the odd guest appearance but you'll have to figure most of it out for yourselves.

Wow, that's shocking information. You we're doing cycling analysis?

It's comments like this that made me turn to Gymnastics. A much less controversial sport.

I would have thought the Gymnastics forums were quite judgmental, but I'm happy if you've found a community that appreciates your genius.

I only joined yesterday. Probably only a while before I get the anti-Irish hate. Before that I got permabanned from reddit for asking a mild question. It's been an emotional rollercoaster.

Yeah, those b*stards will probably start harassing you soon, and say stuff like Dara Ó Briain is a bald fraud and Riverdance is fake.

As evident by the Guess Who game thread, it's clear that there's something strange in the water supply were both Netserk and Samu Cuenca are living.

I don't think people will be surprised to hear that we live quite close to you.
