Moinard was 20th last year.. Maybe there is some progress there

I seem to recall Moncoutié saying he’s definitely going for the polka dots this year. Guess that’s not much of a surprise.

Oh yeah here it is:

I’ll be aiming for a stage win and, why not, the polka dot jersey. I’m not going for the GC, I don’t pretend to be able to challenge Evans, Contador or Valverde. For the polka dot jersey, I’ll have to adapt my riding style, I’ll have to get into all the breaks.

I love Moncoutie

He such a classy rider. I remember reading the ‘98 or ’99 cycling season preview fby some publication that I can’t recall where big things were predicted for David. At the time he was just starting his professional career and the French were touting him as one their best products in many years.

Too bad the sport has been spoiled by drugs otherwise David might very well have fulfilled his promise. A rider of his quality should at least have a Dauphine or Paris Nice under his belt.

A bike race isn't only mountains.. Too bad for him be he's losing a lot of time on flat stages and TT..

It’s like Perez Cuapio and Soler.. Not so worse but in that direction

A frozen 'cross ride from this last weekend. As you may be aware we have had siberian conditions here in the UK with a low of -14 degrees centigrade here on saturday morning. It was a beautiful sunny morning so i layered up and set off for a snowy 'cross ride along a roman road. I checked the thermometer when i got back to find it had been -10 throughout the ride! I had a lot of fun though and the views were spectacular.
