Any chance we can leave out the unfounded doping accusations? Too much cynicism is a bit of a downer.

Dammit.
So you're telling me there's absolutely no chance of a Spoonio Ligna thread? Not even a Premio Nascondino, for those adept at hiding in a bush until their opposition had ridden past?

In Belgium it’s all part of the sport so no.

Actually they did give Taco breakaway points, despite him being dropped just before half way according to PCS. Still, I'm not complaining.
Go Taco! King of the breakaway!

So if we're doing this properly (ha!) we ought to track the runners and riders. Apologies for not tagging people in, but if a job's worth doing properly then it's worth not leaving it to some lazy-arsed joker.
Anyway, Mike P's Bramble Wheelers are currently miles ahead and 20th amongst all players. At the other end Archie's optimistically named GoForIt signally failed to comply, with only the inexplicably sensible pick of Rogliç disrupting an otherwise perfect start in the race for the spoonio ligna.

And I'm 2nd after day 1. Don't think I've ever been that high in the CC league

It's just cheap and nasty low effort snark that - like some Belgian pundits - adds nothing to the conversation except toxicity. It's as tedious as a 250km sprint stage with a one man break.
Only one way though now given how my climbers stumbled today.

I think you’re following the wrong sport then.

I've been following cycling for over 40 years, I know what I'm watching. I also know that just pointing at anyone that rides a bike fast and saying "doper" is some pointless, cynical - and libellous - toxic bullshit that serves nobody well and actively pisses on the chips of people who just want to enjoy the sport. That's why I politely asked that we didn't just randomly sprinkle the conversation with unfounded allegations like it was salt on frites. But hey, you do you. I'll mute or something when I've worked out how this forum software works.

He is the only person here I have on ignore. You can set him to ignore by just hovering over his name next to a post, then click on the "ignore" button. If you change your mind later, then it will be "unignore".
