My favourite sport is reading. Love the 'Grand Tours' because above all, they are at worst, small narratives. Live by the ocean, cycle only for fun and I'm not good or brave, but as a sport it beats all but the ones that take place in the ocean.

Oops, you seahorsed. Well that was certainly damning with faint praise.

Props to Astana. They've done a great job and they've been a man down for at least a week.

That would be silly. He just has to stick to Uran like glue. And hopefully, he'll climb
