Hi all! Thought I’d create a list of people / teams etc to follow for the UK National Cycling Scene!
If there is anyone I’ve missed let me know.

Herne Hill South London GP was amazing! Watching track cycling at the velodrome is probably the best experience you can get as a spectator.
Took the camera as usual and got some amazing pics. Instagram for them (or my website for all of them).
Was tough but here are my favourite 4…

My Velogames team for the Vuelta...
All in on Visma and Ineos...
Jonas will win easily, Jorg should be a podium - top 5 at worst candidate (and is way too cheap).
Ciccone, Bernal and Landa are wildcards but should be decent GC and stage results.
Visma breaks + assist points (hopefully)

So who's starting the Florian Lipowitz to Ineos rumours or am I?
No brainer from either side... Lipowitz won't have a mega contract (like Ayuso) to break and only has a year (or two) left on his contract.
He'll never lead the TDF with Remco there and he's just came 3rd on his first attempt.

Obviously 31.9% could potentially say the same thing but lost out of potentially winning - but that's part of the fun.
Would have swapped out ELB (0 points) and Le Net (122) for Le Court (912) and Labous (531) which is 1331 point net loss... or in other words almost 400 points over 1st place. :(

28th in the world (out of almost 30k!) is pretty insane!
Almost the perfect team!
Riders with the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 7th, 8th most points is an insane core that I built the rest of the team off.

The Velogames team for TDFF…
6 GC candidates… expecting all 6 to be in the top 10 GC. Vollering is too expensive with a lot of podium candidates that you want as many as possible…
Le Net for Vollering assist points 👀
Koerner and Valliefor UNO-X / EF assist points while being having sneaky good 👀

If every day it rained and was 10c... Arensman would win the TDF.
With the power of Ineos and Total Energies backing him, he's got the right backing to create climate change.

The moment I've been waiting for!
109th overall too!
Tomorrow, Stage 20 and 21 will be the big days in terms of make or break. Fred Wright, Lewis Askey, Harry Sweeny and Bini in the break tomorrow would be ideal.

1st (Pog), 2nd (Jonas), 4th (Onley), 7th (Kevin will be 5th after next stage), 10th (Healy) and 12th (Bini) riders all in my team!
I underestimated how hard the versatile sprints would be with Wright and Askey not having any chances.

Pog + Jonas as only two riders who can win TdF.
Onley + Vauquelin 2nd and 3rd at TdS & Healy. Sneaky top 10 GC / KOM contenders and all should win a stage from the break.
Girmay, Wright and Askey as sprinters. All should be breakaway contenders as hilly sprints.
