dev null Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 I am afraid to bring you this tiding, but I think Bardet will implode this week, and I think he will loose at least 2 minutes on the TT. He looked very tired today. I think in this 3rd week his young age will count against him.
jimmycool Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Has anyone noticed how funny the bikes spokes look in those photo finish shots? http://www.letour.fr/PHOTOS/TDF/2014/1600/FIN_STD_IMG.jpg

Yeah, it's a long way to Paris Pinot has a lil more experience in the Tours What a talent Bardet isAnd Betancur must've thought that AG2R would be adrift without him
'Dale Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 "I think there was a fair bit of joy coming out there. I’ve tried many times and I think I’ve changed mentally. I am more hungry, opportunities are more clear to me and I’m not scared of the outcome any more. Previously, I was already scared to try something because I was scared of failure.” Rogers
'Dale Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 “We have to be satisfied with how the stage went... Nibali is solid, but we were able to distance van Garderen, who was the most dangerous rider for the time trial [saturday]. It makes things more comfortable for the podium.” Valverde Read more at http://velonews.competitor.com/2014/07/news/van-garderens-podium-hopes-take-dive-movistar-ambush_337822#6HhtUxVURyWrQQ7S.99
'Dale Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 “I just didn’t have the legs. I felt a bit empty... I am really hoping I can bounce back tomorrow and recover the legs I had in the Alps. It’s not finished. There are still three hard GC days to come, so I’m hoping I can bounce back.” TVG Read more at http://velonews.competitor.com/2014/07/news/van-garderens-podium-hopes-take-dive-movistar-ambush_337822#6HhtUxVURyWrQQ7S.99
Bonus Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 So now, le Tour is venturing into the area of the world where we want to buy and run a Bed & Breakfast guest house :-) Actually we are looking at just south of the French border - in northern Spain. But still only a stones throw from areas annually used by both the TdF and la Vuelta, in the foot hills of the Pyrenees. I hope some of you guys will be coming to visit us . . . :-)
DJuice Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Did 50 Col Challange in 2012. Check out VeloPyrenees, would like to go back one day.

Wendy Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 hmmmm we have to learn how to speak Spanish first. Don't forget.
Shebeen Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 HmmmShark teeth Tomorrow - don't blink would be nice if one of the guys on the bounce decided to attack tomorrow. peraud is sitting in 4th, 6 minutes down, he might as well klap it on the peyresoude and see what happens. thinking about flandis attack when he was juiced up.
Wyatt Earp Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 would be nice if one of the guys on the bounce decided to attack tomorrow. peraud is sitting in 4th, 6 minutes down, he might as well klap it on the peyresoude and see what happens. thinking about flandis attack when he was juiced up. Interesting thing about the Flandis win that day, the peloton made no effort to hunt him down, and to top it all he was juiced up.If they actually made an effort his dope would have let him down.But then again he didn't attack on a monster of a day that tomorrow will be.
Gen Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Jissie.. tomorrow looks crazy.. and then they follow it up with 2 big mean climbs on Thursday. . Hells bells.
