Itzulia Basque Country Preview 2023

Tour of Flanders Recap - 2023

What a race! Well worth the price admission. That being the L we took on our head to head bets. Too many of which featured Mohoric who took a wipe out, at no fault of his own at around the 70km mark. Could have been worse, he could have been

After listening to Carlton Kirby crack Dad jokes for a few hours in the early mornings of January during the UAE tour - you may want to send a shout for the commentary - personally we find it quaint and relaxing but we know it's decisive so we&

Dwars Door Vlanderen 2023 Recap

What fun! Breakaways, last minute catches and stand out performances from less well known riders (and teams - well done Movistar!) made Dwars Door Vlanderen one to remember. If only Kristoff hadn't been caught in the last kilometer by the bunch. We had him in a few head

My bet was marked incorrectly! What do I do?

Recently we had an E/W on Roglic to come top 3 at Volta Catalunya. We watched the race and saw him place 2nd and felt relatively content. We also had an E/W on Remco who placed 3rd so we figured we did okay for the day 💰. When we
