I wonder if Team Ineos will continue with Team Sky's Ocean Rescue commitment. I cannot see how gigantic diesel guzzling tankers transporting petrochemicals around the world fits in with cleaner oceans.

Maybe they’ll move over to Jiffy Bags instead?
And apropos: I am reading Peter Cossins' Full Gas at the moment which is about road tactics - individual and team.
There are only a handful of professional British cycling writers and they struggle to come up with new subjects rather than churn out the 10,000th book on the Tour, but Cossins has and he, for example, reminds us that people have short memories and that the domination of one team, currently Sky, goes back as long as cycling has existed.
I have several of his books (and not just because he used to live in Grove Road, Ilkley!) and this is one of the better ones.

"...as dry as the Atacama desert".
As a cynical non-fan of pro cycling, I'm also wondering if this "new" team will go through the normal pantomime of "and this time, we're really really really going to stop doping". If so, I will watch again with amusement while many (otherwise clear-thinking) cycling fans suspend disbelief at yet more superhuman feats of endurance.
