I predict that this year the Tour will be blighted by drug scandals


Oh, statistically, I also predict that someone will die on the Tour this year. I also prddict that one team will either be disqualified or pull out of the Tour.

Ha, I think they’re all a bunch of pussies. I followed the whole ’92 Tour on a mountain bike (loaded down with panniers front and rear) and easily managed to get to the end of each days stage the same day as they did, including the mountain stages (except when they did vehicle transfers). At one point in the Alps the marshalls stopped me cos I was riding with tailenders :- )

Pah, I speeet on ze stage racers, like zis (spits)

(Original post edited – someone pointed out that the info was personal and made it easy for someone to find me - not a good idea, especially as I’ve only just managed to get rid of my last stalker!)

I think a bloke on a bike will win it.
