Time's up for Suisse Watchers

Hello, the Tour De Suisse wrapped up the other day, but I only just noticed. Overall victory went to little Richie Porte, who might just be a Dark Horse for the Tour, but not far behind was another Tour hopeful, Nairo Quintana. 


The Bile Beans started off strong, but fell apart in the mountains. So heading up the Fantasy Fun were Enrico 666, who also seem to be heading up the overall season competition too. 


Next up, a little race called the Tour De France. Perhaps I will see you there?

Dauphine Round-Up/ Swiss Roll-up

The Bile Beans performance at the Dauphine can be summed up pretty simply -SAD!
Like many a rider though, I was just using the race to hone my performance ahead of the Tour De France. So surviving some last-minute puncture drama, the original G'ster, Geraint Thomas, won himself the Criterium du Dauphine.


Things went pretty smoothly for Mungo, but as they us say, the Dauphine winner never wins the Tour, (except when he does).


Over in Switzerland, the Tour de Suisse rolls along. We've had three stages so far and thanks to some sprinting luck, the Bile Beans are not languishing in last position. Lets have a quick look at the scores, while I can still take some pride in them.
