Tankman Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Fans have caused crashes before ... flag into Lance's wheel, twice that dogs walked into the peloton causing crashes.A rider was punched in the stomach by a fan, the rider went back later and found the fan and gave him some of his own medicine. Contador punched a fan that was running next to him, that fan deserved that punch!Some fans took the piss out of Cavendish. Lunatics will be lunatics and lunatics will be part of the tour (or any other sport/event)
Eugene Oppelt Posted July 15, 2013 Author Posted July 15, 2013 Fans = occupational hazard It is up to the the organizers to set up different viewing scenarios.Obviously, they want the intimacyOrHow do they possibly create barriers over hundreds of kms.
CAAD4 Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Litres of warm Beer + Hot weather = heroics and k@k soek... eksemaarnet...

Why is it up to the organizers or the fault of booze? So lets assume your both cycling fanatics who support pro riders who race in tours and you get the opportunity to stand next to the road on a famous race climb one day? Would you do the same as some of these chops do OR would you stand on the side of the road and wave your flag / shout / jump / take pictures / get excited / etc BUT stay out of the way? Honestly....
Eugene Oppelt Posted July 15, 2013 Author Posted July 15, 2013 Tomorrow, the show goes on. This Tour is not over.Green and Yellow jerseys are firmly in hand for Froome and Sagan, BUT ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN IN SPORT.The chase for Polka and White is still very very interesting. http://www.letour.fr/PHOTOS/TDF/2013/1600/PROFIL.png

Hmm, maybe, but I think the white jersey is also secure now, the Polka jersey maybe but Rolland looks like a spotty Giraffe in it anyway, not very flattering, but we will see. TiBones 1
T-Bob Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 I see Pinot & van Poppel out Thibault Pinot? Where'd you pick that up from? Another one of my TdF Fantasy picks going to the wall.
GrumpyOldGuy Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Not much been said about Andy in the media, okay the 2 Ps have done a pretty good job but even they have to concede at some point he is pretty much out of it, I haven't even seen any release from the Shack defending his poor form, even old man Kloden held on longer.
jcza Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Thibault Pinot? Where'd you pick that up from? Another one of my TdF Fantasy picks going to the wall. I also picked him Conflicting reports, Daniel Benson the Editor of Cycling News reported the Pinot story. Since changed his mind.

T-Bob Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 I also picked him It's amazing how many riders that were so prominent last year (and even up to a month before) have been shelled out and are way off the mark in this edition.
Wez-O Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Thibault Pinot? Where'd you pick that up from? Another one of my TdF Fantasy picks going to the wall.Pinot along with van Garderen have been the biggest disappointments of the entire tour.
