Starts in Israel next weekend. Dumoulin back to defend title and Aru there too. No Quintana. Froome getting a ridiculous amount of money to ride. He was disqualified in his last appearance in 2010 for holding onto a motorbike. Froome will not finish on podium imo. His best days are behind him and he will not win another Grand Tour and will hopefully get a long ban.
Why is Froome not banned? He was caught red handed at the Vuelta. An absolute farce of a sport.

Froome not in the best form but the prick will be there or thereabouts. Dumoulin looked strong at at Liege. Pinot looked decent winning the tour of the alps last week. George Bennett will go well. Fabio Aru riding but don’t think he can win. Nibali not riding. I’ll go for Pinot.
May the best chemist win.

It’s all about those marginal gains
Now that they’re all hopped up to the eyes again, he may be right 
Again?
Pathetic all right.
Tom Dumoulin won the prologue in Jerusalem today. Froome was well back 37 seconds down. Froome crashed in the morning on his recon ride of the course. Sky say he is ok but we’ll see in the next few days. Aru lost 50 seconds. Simon Yates did well to finish seventh, 20 seconds down.

Sam Bennett third in the sprint today, won by Viviani.
Looked like he did all the hard work for viviani in the finish, leading him out and allowing him to get the jump on him. Novicey by him and his team?
Yeah he’s a bit green yet. Same thing happened a few times last year. Viviani did brilliantly considering how he lost his lead out. Experience.
Viviani wins again. Bennett third. Bennett led the sprint out and was picked off easily. Wouldn’t be surprised if he was disqualified because he was all over the road.
Her tits could have caused a serious crash all jokes aside.
Giro back on Italian soil today. Tim Wellens won the stage. It broke up a bit at the finish. Chavez, Dumoulin and Pinot were in the lead group. Gollum lost another twenty seconds.
Sam Bennett won today’s stage in the Giro.

He did brilliantly to get on Viviani’s wheel and stay there.
By the way, Simon Yates is leading now after finishing second on Mt Etna behind Esteban Chavez. Dumoulin is second and Gollum is eight. Nico is about 30th.
