I've decided to ride a stage of the race (I'm injured at the moment, so...) on my roller in tribute to their efforts. I was thinking about Blagnac > Brive-la-Gaillarde at 222.5km, then I though again and decided to do the Leige Prologue (6.4km). Wish me luck!!

That's an old photo - Luarent Fignon (RIP) and Bernard 'The Badger' Hinault....where's Bradley and Cav?
...and possibly the mercurial Robert Miller in the background?
Which is you ?
sad news today- lonesome George has died ( Galapagos tortoise ).
Grown men getting excited about watching grown men sweating in Lycra....??? F*cking hell boys (or should that be girls?)!!
oh no don't start the lycra obsession/fetish debate again.
Tarts!
I'd prefer women in Lycra myself..
I'd prefer the bikes covered in Lycra
Seymour, this is the hardest sport in the world. Lycra is the least of your worries.
Laurent'The Professor' Fignon leads out Hinault, followed by Pedro Delgardo. He won that year (1983), his first ever 'tour'. What a hero.
Nice touch when Bradley Wiggins met the press yesterday: 'oh fuck!'. Why would anyone want to see, listen or talk to a rider who is listed as a possible Tour winner? 'T was a tad naive from Brad, n'est-ce pas?
Randal these fcukers take more drugs than the entire population of upper Llynfi
misty NO ONE and i mean NO ONE takes more dugs than the upper llynfi valley
May be we should start a Llynfi Valley Tour de Rizla? Everyone gets given a bike, first one to the Job Centre wins a quarter? We'll kick the anti-doping lobby into touch and just assume everyone is positive......the first ever bicycle race where there's a level playing field (guaranteed).
