jcza Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 I guess it was a case that he was on his own and had to do it for him self, a team unsure if he was going to make the cut and couldn't risk other riders going down with him if he faltered. Like alot of teams so far plan isn't really there so it's now stages and you need as many peole in the mix for that one. If he made it through bonus, he was all but packed up half way though the day anyway and who knows if he'll get much further but respect for the effort. I agree but harsh to watch it unfold.
Spoke101 Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 As a friend of mine said Talansky rode 180km in 5hrs mostly on his own, try that on your next ride and you not injured. Huge respect.

Frosty Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Sagan questioned on a move to Astana... @TheRaceRadio: Sagan to Astana? http://sporza.be/cm/sporza/wielrennen/Tour/140716_Sagan_richting_Astana_bron De letterlijke vertaling van het interview met SaganSchotte: "Gisteren heb je aan tafel gezegd dat je toekomst onzeker is. Kan het Astana zijn?"Sagan: "Wat bedoel je?"Schotte: "Ligt je toekomst bij Astana?"Sagan: "Wie heeft dat gezegd?"Schotte: "Een betrouwbare bron."Sagan: "Ah, oké, we zien volgend jaar wel." if your Dutch is like mine then here's my translation: The literal translation of the interview with Sagan Schotte: "Yesterday at the table you said that your future is uncertain. Could you be at Astana?" Sagan: "What do you mean?" Schotte: "Is your future in Astana?" Sagan: "Who said that?" Schotte: "a reliable source." Sagan: "Ah, okay, we'll see next year." Interesting hair style too
crasher Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 This day belongs to Talansky !!! A new hero is born ..... man that is sheer guts and glory. Yes how tough was that he got back on that bike wiped away his tears wiped his nose and gritted it out I dont think anyone really knows how much pain he was in but it must of been really really bad that will be a day he can be proud of forever. I dont know if its wise for him to carry on today and suffer just for the sake of it as its a long way to go still but I suppose medical staff will help make decision today.
Jaco-fiets Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Talansky should look at the bigger picture now. He has proved that he has haert now time to bow out
jcza Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Also see a rumour that Sagan will be at Tinkoff next year. Nobody has a clue.

Shebeen Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Also see a rumour that Sagan will be at Tinkoff next year. Nobody has a clue.Sagan is a bit windgat. That can have good and bad repercussions for him.
'Dale Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Also see a rumour that Sagan will be at Tinkoff next year. Nobody has a clue. Both Astana and Tinkoff have big budgets.Either way, Sagaaan might be on a Spez. I'll have to buy a Spez from Wyatt' then.
NotSoBigBen Posted July 17, 2014 Posted July 17, 2014 Both Astana and Tinkoff have big budgets.Either way, Sagaaan might be on a Spez. I'll have to buy a Spez from Wyatt' then. Mon dieu :eek:
