SwissVan Posted September 4, 2014 Share A few things in that pic that should tell you it was not during the TT: 1. Handlebars2. Spoked back wheel3. Helmet And, the following vehicle is NOT ALLOWED "along side" or "in front of" the rider during a TT. Work getting in the way so did not have time to view the video and that's why i asked and said "damn shocking" if it was the TT Sometimes riders ride a normal light weight bike when there are long climbs involved and then switch to their TT bike at the top, during this TT I saw one guy doing just that.

Pure Savage Posted September 4, 2014 Share what about the sprinters? I would think they would easily manage on a time trials which usually flat and short distance, I can only think it affects their cadence maybe? That would be true if the TT was 800m.

SwissVan Posted September 4, 2014 Share I think 'Berto needs grip tape on the saddle Yeah on his TT saw that, damn it was irritating just watching him shift back every few seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOldGuy Posted September 4, 2014 Share Tomorrow: What’s Spanish for déjà vu? Because this stage is a repeat of the 2012 loops around Logroño. It was a sprint finish then and it’ll surely be one again. The Inner Ring Looks quite bumpy, maybe suit John Degenkolb again.? I have been hoping to see Ferrari in the mix but so far he hasnt really featured, but I am quite impressed with Pardilla's performance, he is up there on the climbs, in the sprints, he is everywhere, MTN got a good signing there.

jcza Posted September 4, 2014 Share I'm going for Bouhanni but only cause he is in my fantasy team meathead 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheese Posted September 4, 2014 Share Would be Nice If Sbiragli for MTN can get there, but it does not seem they are working as team, In the last sprint he and Ciolek was sprinting next to each other and always to far back. If One can give lead out to the other maybe they can get top3. ScottCM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted September 4, 2014 Share Boonen and Sagaaan play along in the sprints after Bouhanni crashes out... Otherwise a relatively uneventful stage hey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted September 4, 2014 Share "I thought maybe after the rest day and the time trial, I would be better," he said. "But I had not recovered from the virus that caused me fever for three days, [the race is] not worth pursuing."

Capcha Posted September 4, 2014 Share I must say im rather disappointed by the support for our local MTN boys. Been here a week and yet to see a local fan. TDF didnt have one SA rider but you constantly see a SA flag that has effall to do with the race. So ja its just a little sad. Yes its not the hight of holiday season but must be a downer when the boys see all dif nationality flags being flown except for their own. Rant done!
