Maybe a family trait 😉 - Mrs. vS bought a colt out of another daughter of Thanks. Ran a good 4th on debut - then got progressively slower. He was more of a 'clown' - wanted to have fun all the time.
I think the main contenders and their teams let those 2 Yates Bros go as they do not do a lot of work on the front so could be vulnerable tonight. Good start to the tour instead of the normal flat sprinters stages marred by mass crashes.
We need some more competitors - c'mon have some fun and the banter is great 😝
pump up your tyres, lube ya chain and put on your skinsuit - we are about to roll out 🚴♂️ 😨
