What is that inhuman being on the picture? 
Cant wait for Tour to start,especially flat stages should be fun.
Who is your favourite for first yellow? My favourite is obvious. 
If Peter will escape the possible carnage of first nervous stages. And beat Cav...

Btw. Sagan said after winning the national title that he feels he impoved his climbing before the Tour, i hope for some crazy attacks to snatch mid stage points, but who will let him go?

Actually that would make for an interesting race! Because Sky would then have to come out and do something. Froome would have to go on the attack, and that would be awesome to watch
Well, they might have an emergency plan, and only God knows what the hell that is(!!), because in normal occasions they drop everyone with 1 or 2 riders, so their emergency plan must put them from 1st to 9th position in the GC taking 30+ minutes on Contador or something like that. |

Brailsford says they have a very different riding plan for this race and people will be surprised.
I'm guessing it's put someone in every break, but it may turn out to just be more bullshit from Brailsford. We'll see.

A praying mantis.
And the second picture is Froome on his bike.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but is there a PCMDaily fantasy tour league on Velogames?
If so can someone give me the league code?
Thanks |

Can anyone explain to me why it is not possible to place accumulators / multiples on TdF markets at basically every online betting site? I just want to place £10 on the winner of each jersey really, but I've been through about 7 different sites now and they all say that those selections are not possible. I don't see how the outcomes affect each other  |

I say we will see a different Sky. Froome can attack and doesn't necessarily needs that train to get him the win. We'll see more Sky tactics à la Giro (where Uran attacked to put pressure on Astana) |

They might say they will attack, and Froome is probably (and supposedly, at Sky and among his opponents) so much stronger than the others that he might afford to attack and provide entertainment. But should he struggle to achieve a victory or jeopardize it with not working attacks, and they'll switch back to the cold lethal but oh-so-efficient tempo train tactic. |

I can't seem to figure out who will be the strongest sprinters in each team. I'm trying to beat a friend of mine in the managergames around. Can some of you elaborate which riders is the better bet for stage 1, and why. Here's the one I'm in doubt about.
AG2R:
- Samuel Dumoulin (Will he perform?)
Astana: (Which one is better on tomorrows stage?)
- Francesco Gavazzi
- Assan Bazayev
Euskaltel:
- Juan Jose Lobato D.V. (Will he perform?)
Lampre: (Who will be sprint leader and will any of them perform?)
- Roberto Ferrari
- Davide Cimolai
Lotto: (Who will lead out Greipel as the final rider?)
- Jurgen Roelandts
- Gregory Henderson
Movistar:
- José Joaquin Rojas Gil (Will he perform?)
Omega Pharma Quickstep: (Who will lead out Cavendish as the final rider?)
- Geert Steegmans
- Matteo Trentin
Sky Procycling:
- Edvald Boasson Hagen (Will he perform? Is he allowed?)
- Geraint Thomas (What is his role?)
Sojasun: (Which will lead the sprint, and will he perform?)
- Julien Simon
- Julien El Fares
- Cyril Lemoine
Team Argos-Shimano (Who will lead the team in the sprints?)
- Marcel Kittel
- John Degenkolb
Team Europcar (Who is their main sprinter and will he perform?)
- Yukiya Arashiro
- Yohann Gene
Team Saxobank:
- Daniele Bennati (Will he perform? Is he allowed?)
Vacansoleil: (Who will be the main sprinter?)
- Boy van Poppel
- Danny van Poppel
- Kris Boeckmans
Do these teams have a riders suited for top 15 tomorrow?
Belkin
BMC
Cofidis
Garmin Sharp
Radioshack
I hope you'll help me out. There's no money involved, it's for a meal at McDonalds between him and me

No Garmin doesn't. I know why.
Why would you want to eat at McDonalds? If it was me and my buddy the loser would eat at McDonalds.

Steegmans is leadout for Cav.
Henderson is leadout for Greipel.
Kittel is first sprinter for Argos.
