Not really got going yet. Usually they have a week to get rolling, but this year it was straight into the hills. Today was like watching paint dry, apart from the last 10 minutes.

Geraint Thomas isn’t’ours’. And for that matter on another thread neither is Andy Murray.

Another saving grace for Thomas possibly ?

Shame his nation isnt really represented on the flag of the union though
Which must mean he's just English .

For some reason I had a feeling that something was going to happen today, but wow! Really enjoyed this years tour - and I'm going to enjoy watching the other 2 grand tours in quick succession. Anyone got any views on their winners? I fancy Geraint for a strong showing.

Discredited sport.

Wonder why Team Sky left out the previous winners?

Says Ineos.

Maybe drug testing was taken seriously this year.

The sport has zero credibility.
