Confused by weird Danish surnames though, as the TdF's webby SCIENCE refers to the rider who pwned the first climb of the day as “J Wilsly” while French TV had him as “J Gregaard”.  When he's actually J Gregaard Wilsly in the same way that last year’s Super-Dane is M Cort Nielsen.

These reports are more difficult to read than Feersum Endjinn to dyslexic hed branes like mine.

EC Boardman isn't related to the Sickos man from a Stan kelly cartoon for The Onion, perchance? :demon:

These reports are more difficult to read than Feersum Endjinn to dyslexic hed branes like mine.

Still more interesting than watching cycle racing thobut.

I find/found it easier to read in globs of maybe 3days at once. This is of no use if you want to follow actual race progress, but there's another thread for that. (I'm only really her for the vautours, and the CBoardmen 😉)
and cos Bethany [13] might beat me up

Much like Feersum Injun and also many Irving Welsh novels, I find a need to embed my brane into the linguistics, so it's not conducive to dipping in.

And sadly we are lacking in both vautours and Boardmen thus far.  C Evans has left after today’s stage, but probably not because of Eleanor of Aquitaine or Bethany’s Mum.  Dunno whether they've got a willing replacement lined up, or kidnapped Dan Martin's children again.
