Well, hat trick for Froome?
If he avoids illness and injuries he will do this .
Can't really see anyone besting him |  |

After Brexit the French have said he's only allowed to race if he uses a square back wheel. |  |
| An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it. |

The course is well known to me.
Highlight of my sporting year.
Without doubt the hardest sporting event in the world | |

Looking forward to it to, Perchie, it's fab.
Hope Froome can do it, but I note those pesky French have made it more about climbing and less about time trials this year. That Colombian boy, Froomie's main rival, has apparently been training intensively in the mountains, I read somewhere, and he was pretty good on climbing to start with. He thinks it's his year this year. |  | | |

When you say "my sporting year", do you really mean "my year sat on my arse watching others do sport" like the rest of us? | | | |

Understand him being the favourite, odds of 5/4 for such an exhausting event with so many variables seems a little strange | | | |

Lol Leon.
Exactly right.

Sky have picked one hell of a team full of climbers. Think their strength in depth will see them through again. As long as froome stays upright. | | | |

Taken many holidays in France.
I've been to Berne too .
Carcassonne is a stunning location.
It's a feast for the soul | |

Sky have been clever in their recruitment this year. Froome will have a lot more support in the mountains than he has done. |  |

F*cking hope not, especially since he's a big-headed arrogant ponse.
A Welshman helped him through the mountains last time, hopefully that's not the case this time.
He's Kenyan like Mo Farrah is Somali anyway, not one of "ours" since I'm using this UK/British term loosely. | | | |

Well his wife was born in Neath, so he gets my support and arrogant is an odd term to describe someone like froome.
Anyway, blood doping is cycling is becoming a thing of the past, it's all about mechanical doping now and having little motors hidden in the frame. | | | |

Phenomenal athlete, just not likable.
Hopefully G can get top 5, Landa is a great climber who might drag froome around a fair bit, so G might not push it up the mountains like last year, time will tell.
Movistsar have powerful 2 pronged attack with Quintanta / Valverde as have Astana with Nibili/ Aru.
BMC will be interesting to watch Richie Porte & van garderen both could/should be lead men.
Looking forward to the sprints, Cav has part of his old team with Eisel/Renshaw but cant see him getting ahead of Griepel,Kittel, Sagan, Degenkolb. | | | |

I'll be in Carcassonne in nine weeks' time, Perchie. Me and five others having a two week holiday on the Canal Du Midi.
Starting off at Bellegarde near Nimes, then going West, with Carcassonne being our halfway point before we turn around and come back. Can't wait. | | | |

No, not all druggies pross.
Certainly no worse than althletics
Hereford.
Ensure you hire bikes and cycle the tow paths of the canal.
The castle at carcasonne and the enclosed village is awesome but rather touristy | |

Yes, we've hired two bikes for the boat. Yours truly will be off to the local village in the mornings for le pain et les croissants..... | | | |

Hmm..
If you go to beziers you note the many locks that are something to behold.
If you go there, avoid the town as its a dump. Cap d agde is excellent for broad minded adults | |
