Default Off to Bookies for Next Year's Tdf now

Looking at this article on Eurosport..I am off to put my silver down
at the bookies on Jan to win the TdF next year

It looks like Lance is stepping down from a few spring classics, and
with him losing his right hand man..not a good signs for a Tour
victory

Either way you're going to have to put down a fair amount of silver
for a decent return

hmmm

Armstrong 1.66 : 1
Ulrich 2.25 : 1
Beloki 14 : 1
Hamilton 14 : 1
Mayo 20 : 1

I'd be tempted by a punt on Ulrich and a small amount down on
Beloki as an outside at those odds. Hmmmmmmmmm

You will never beat the bookies - get lucky occassionally maybe but as a way
of making money its only slightly better odds than supporting your friendly
Nigerian offering cash.

Hard-earned? Nice of you to say so!

Indeed. Having never made a bet before I might be tempted to now though
for some fun.

It's the fun that's the key. Gambling is a game, and if you enjoy doing
the game even if you come out financially behind then that's okay. A
bit like spending money on bikes.
