TDF 2023... Lets see what this year brings.

So the TDF starts next weekend.

British fans will be inspired to see the superstar Cavendish on the roster for Astana.... Can he become the winningest racer of all time ?

He'll be in the sprints against Jasper Philipsen, WvA, Girmay, Jakobsen, Groenewegen, Welsford, Ewan amongst others.

Then we're onto the overall GC contenders.. Can Bernal bring his form again for INEOS ? or is it a battle for Vingegaard and Pogacar again this year ?

He won the final stage of the Giro in Rome 4 weeks ago.

I've not watched any road cycling this year so I've missed out on who's doing what & how the teams are going,but as I now have time on my hands I'll be watching every stage,in full. :thumbup:
I hope we get some good battles between MVDP & WVA,I enjoy their battles in the cross races over winter & it's good to watch them on the roads,that stage that MVDP won in Brittany the other year & WVA's win in Calais last year,were great to watch.
I can't really see past Philipsen or Pogacar for the overall,hopefully one of the Yates brothers gets onto the podium
