I think he might actually beat the record on stage19 before Paris, but to do it Paris would be so good! He seems so grounded these days and has so much respect for the race, and seems genuinely surprised at his success this year, but, and it’s a big but, I wonder if he might just back himself to win in Paris and not try to beat the record before. Altho having said that I just think he loves winning at Le Tour so expect him to go for 36!Originally Posted by Packerman
Chapeau Cav, as already said i also had a tear when he won Tuesday, favourite for green now and in with a shout at the cannibals record, absolute legend in my eyes and what resolve to come back from what could have been a career ending illness. i rate him the greatest ever british cyclist above Froome, G and Wiggins and without doubt the best ever road sprinter,
dream scenario would to win the sprint in green on the Champs-Elysees to equal or surpass Merckx
we can but dream
