After watching the criterium de dolphin last night I came to the caustic decision that road cycling as a professional sport would be best disappearing entirely from the face of the sporting world. It is the saddest joke of a sport. You have the pellaton basically stopping to wait for some poor sap who happened to have fallen off. What a facade of sportsmanship. All the while they are all either dopers who aren't caught yet or ex dopers. The biggest of all is that stick insect Froome.
Meanwhile you have the two at the front who seemed to be excused from slowing down and waiting for Froome for some reason unknown to me. Anyway they were putting on their own embarrassing display of cycling sportsmanship by refusing to ride at the front or even ride at all, and battle it out like men instead insisting on trying to use the other to get a wheel and pop across the line at the end for the win. Yes, I know that is how the sport works and yes, that is my point.
