well fan for life

For what it's worth, I'm not actually a Froome fan. I think he's dull as dishwater. I'm also not "naive" enough to think that no one's doping now. I just enjoy watching a bike race. If I spent the whole 3 weeks ripping it apart and assuming the whole lot was solely down to drug use, then I wouldn't enjoy watching any of it.

At the end of the day, if Quintana had been able to stick to the front group on stage 2 he'd have won it. To immediately assume that Froome is doping isn't exactly taking in all the facts.

Same. If I was served that up I'd be delighted. Every plate looked fantastic.

Think Renshaw won it with about 107km/h on a descent. These guys must have some set of baws on them.

Usually you get the EPO, Cortisone dopers getting nicked midway round. But getting papped out for doing ching is an absolute cracker.

Think he lost his heid as much as he lost the Tour. Instead of sorting the situation out and getting moving he wasted as much time as he lost by throwing his toys out the pram. Even rejecting his team mate's bike. Cause taking someone elses bike never works out I guess...

My girlfriend thinks it's ridiculous that I've ordered the Pipboy edition. YOLO.

Yup. Same. FT Apple Watch. I might just wear my PipBoy full timer.

I actually cannot remember a game I have been this excited for. So many questions. Why are you the lone survivor from Vault 111? How have you survived 200 years? Why is it not out now? Also, I am ordering the Pipboy edition. I don't even care how sad that makes me.

The botchling is a fucking creepy looking thing.

I don't even think he had fully committed when he initially went. He seemed to kick a little bit and got the gap, then no one would chase and drag everyone back so he got away. Have to feel sorry for Luke Durbridge who probably wins inconvenience of the day:

In no order: Battlefield 3 - for the online play, no FPS has come close to this yet for me. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time - The satisfaction of beating the water temple is worth it. Bioshock - "Would you kindly?" enough said. GTA 5 - like San Andreas only much improved. Best game I've ever played can only go to The Last of Us. Completely absorbing story, wonderful environment, great gameplay. As flawless as a game can get IMO.

~240km of absolutely bugger all happening, followed by 50km of some of the most fascinating, enthralling racing I've seen in a long time. Genuinely could not pick a winner until Degenkolb had his hands in the air. Geraint Thomas looked very strong so would expect him to go well in the rest of the classics. Etixx needs to sort out their gear in that case. Twice in a week he's slipped a chain and cost him a chance of winning. He's been using the FSA cranks ahead of them using their full groupset but apparently changed back to the old SRAM one for today and still had the issue.

Astana now into full on taking the piss mode. http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/latest-news/artur-fedosseyev-becomes-fifth-astana-rider-test-positive-146781

This is how I feel about every game I look at now. It will take something earth shatteringly good to beat The Last of Us.

Bought a PS4 a while ago and picked up the remastered version. Completed it last night and I don't know how anything will ever come close to this as a game.

The actual episode itself was a bit meh, but Capaldi was absolutely supreme. Particularly the scene with the tramp when he was talking about his eyebrows, complete with a subtle nod to the referendum thrown in there. And while Clara is hot, she's nigh on insufferable as a character.

It's trying to raise and lower it in the right order to get the keys. And then you miss a fucking key and have to retrace your steps all the way back to the beginning. The Shadow Temple is a pain in the arse as well.

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. It's even better than I remember as a wean. I won't lie, I had to use a walkthrough for the water temple. I wandered round that place for 3 hours and got stuck a key short.

Definitely looking forward to the remakes. Thoroughly enjoyed Pokemon X. I'm finding Mega Mewtwo to be absolutely hilarious in battles. I've got bulk up on and then I just start mashing power up punch.

I actually wouldn't mind if Froome won again, but I would at least like it to remain interesting for a while. Last years tour was pretty non-eventful GC wise.

Froome comes across as a petulant child. And they way he's came out with this book just now is very unprofessional. I hope he bombs in the tour and that Nibali plucks some form from somewhere.

Worth a punt. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. He was right up there last year, but his main job was to babysit Cav throughout the flat days so he slipped back.

Schoolboy error from Martin. Gutted for him though, looked like he was in for a podium at least. Kwiatkowski is in some fine form this year. Definitely one to watch for the rest of the season.
