You silly expert bicycle man: I have bitten my tongue until I shan't be able to taste my lunch today, and even so I simply must take exception to this passive/aggressive attack on the very integrity of Le Tour de Meaux. Just as there is only one (and here I quote you, "REAL") Tour de France, there is only one REAL Tour de Meaux. And making it oh-so-rarer than that little yearly contest in France and its ~~hundred-year-or-whatever tradition, there will never again BE a Tour de Meaux! And thus you shall wear the TdM sprinter's green beret for all of eternity; just as TRFKAFBM shall (possibly: see below) forever wear the yellow jersey; just as I shall forever wear the addition to my multi-compounded, adult-onset right knee scabby scar.
Harruuump!

(Formerly known as Meaux)
Mr. Yellow Jersey Wearer: Publically allude to my age just once again and see your name forever stricken from le Tour de Meaux record. I'll be waiting, right here, with my eraser poised....
