udxcob Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Did you see the cameraman push the one spectator out the way?
rouxtjie Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) What a stage...man I was on the edge of the couch. This is what its about.... Sky did very well even extending their lead. Frenchie took the queen stage. Berto goes until he blows...Quintana climbing like a goat and Porte helping a injured soldier...it had it all. Only loser was poor Raymond...he kukked a bit, spent the pennies too early. Roll on today...wish we can do a wash rinse repeat of yesterday. Edited July 19, 2013 by rouxtjie
DJR Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) I swear I dont know how these guys dont start dishing out PK's left and right. When I am kakking off I want to be left alone. Some dude sreaming in my face will really pee me off. That is why they are respected pro's. SuperhumansThe only time my wife swears, is when the stupid drunk idiots run with the riders and slap them on the back. Myself, I never swear , but I would deploy a good old PK if they did it to me.

SwissVan Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 So it's a 20 second penalty for both Froome and Porte I saw in the local press, is this correct. Quintana must have woken up early today chomping at the bit...... All the riders in front of him must be nervous especially AC, going to be riveting stuff again.
scotty Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Wonder if Conatdor snacked last night on steak with clenbuterol clams on butter roll Go Froome
Tumbleweed Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 Michelle Cound @michellecound10hRide of the day to @richie_porte #legend Someone pass that man a toblerone (and a spare one for @chrisfroome )Um, but maybe not in the last 20km… Zook 1
'Dale Posted July 19, 2013 Author Posted July 19, 2013 From Inner Ring Watch today's stage. It's technically the hardest stage! Km 33.5 – Col du Glandon (1 924 m) 21.6km climb at 5.1% – category HKm 83.5 – Col de la Madeleine (2 000 m) 19.2km climb at 7.9% – category HKm 143.0 – Col de Tamié (907 m) 8.6km climb at 6.2% – category 2Km 165.0 – Col de l’Épine 6.1km climb at 7.3% – category 1Km 191.5 – Col de la Croix Fry (1 477 m) 11.3km climb at 7% – category 1Some said yesterday was the Queen Stage but today is longer, has more climbs and more vertical metres. Presumably Alpe d’Huez wins on branding but technically today is the harder stage by most counts.

hayleyearth Posted July 19, 2013 Posted July 19, 2013 How long do you guys think it will still be for TdF to be broadcast on the radio (like rugby on RSG)? Cause I am on the road from 12:30pm today and will be for 9hours... so no chance to watch
'Dale Posted July 19, 2013 Author Posted July 19, 2013 Some race dynamics, I reckon: Quintana will want to gain on 'Berto and claim a 2nd spot on GC.'Berto will not want to be overtaken by the rookie. Froome bonked yesterday and it will inspire other attackers.Is he cracking or was that just a poor feeding strategy? His foes will test that out. Valverde will want to impress. Schleckie will aim to improve on his showing. Riblon will feel like the King Of THe World and will do his best to show that it wasn't a once-off victory.Tejay will want to taste glory after being overtaken in the last kay. DON'T BLINK FANS
