 That was quite a fun thing to read. Following Sylvain it feels like what happens when I do high jump or something, get a descent top tenish and then sit there while some amazing person goes for ages. 
Means I should get a post from Sylvain out soon though.

Certailny will be writing up a couple more rider posts, hopefully before the first race comes out. Plenty to react to as well as a general pre-season chat.

I'll take ninth in the climb, and then eighth, seventh and then fourth in the jump.

Thanks. Glad to see the interest still high going into season 3 and almost reaching the anniversary
Sorry I didn't get the preview out tonight. Truth is I got my marks back from an exam and they were pretty bad and I've got another exam coming up in about a week, alongside this internship so some measures were needed and I got to buckle down for a week and get this French in my head.
Will still try to make the preview tomorrow or something. Just need some time management  |

First posts are up for Dubois and Forcellini. I think my banner's are likely too big but I'm fedup of fighting Photobucket to get them to work so I'll have a look at shrinking them another time.
If someone could let me know roughly how much they think I should shrink them down by (height wise mainly) it would be appreciated as it's a little hard to tell when my Internet isn't always the best.

Was trying to pressure Vague into racing classics and to raise there status as I whole as I feel not many people care about them (or just value classification races higher), ended up starting up an argument about commercialism.

I had no problem with the size, personally. |

Also, for new players but also for older players:
I'm always keeping the 2nd post in the Game Thread updated: you can find links to all old reports there. In the spoiler below the 2016-2017 banner you can find the season preview I made, including the race profiles and calendar. Just in case you ever wonder where to look |

Dubois already on first name terms
So pumped, time to blindly believe tactics make us better for yet another season!

Jandal picks a fight with everyone he can, it's a surprise his riders can still finish races.... for now

I was just saying...
Milan is like Forrest Gunp, unassumedly getting involved in things out of his league
No but there I was just saying that it was weird to see him say Milan when they never even talked. I would always say Listerijn or Lipawsky, however confusing it may be with those two, until they knew each other. To each his own I guess, I won't make a thing out of it.

@Jandal
Let's just say everything will be revealed in due course, though if it makes you feel any better in the Interim I will say he wouldn't exactly have competed in the beach games without introducing himself to at least some of the other competitors for the season during that time.

"Vague" in the background, is this taken out of Milan's wet dreams?

Very very nice report, love it!
But that's also the worst luck I've seen here since Lisbon. So close to being in the lead, then that damn mechanical.
Louis and Dirk, time will come. Lachy, not bad but could and probably should be better. Arthur, good effort on a terrain to his dislike. Mark, very very very impressed.
