'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 !!! Dan Martin has decided that he wants to be in the break and he's set off in chase. He's 39 seconds ahead of the peloton but he's got another 3:40 to make up if he wants to join the seven out front.
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Difference between quitting and crashing dale.HuhWho mentioned quitting
Pure Savage Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Breakaway stands a good chance Sky won't burn matches chasing and control the race They'll only chase if there is a clear GC threatLike if Porte attacks ?
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Martin was the victor when the race went over the Tourmalet in 2013 after Garmin blew the race apart.
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Like if Porte attacks ? Imagine thatLike déjà vu when The Dawg attacked Twiggo in '12
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 A mechanical problem for Pinot. A quick wheel change and he's on his way again. Eish!
Gen Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 A mechanical problem for Pinot. A quick wheel change and he's on his way again. Eish!That guy must have the worst luck/equipment in the tour this yr.
isn Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Well they now at the foot of Col du Tourmalet. I believe this will be the deciding factor. The front pack seems big enough. But if one them breaks away and wind then that will decide mostly the days winner and not much influence on overall.

A lekker downhill decent attack will be awesome... but it won't happen. . Sky will stay infront and froome will hold them all up on the decent[emoji6]
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Andriy Grivko is now with Martin. They're closing in on the leaders
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Race situation: The advantage for the escapees continues to grow. They've got 6:12 on the bunch with the chasers 3:16 behind.
nochain Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Nibs was not really a proper contender ever, never won a grand tour with Froome, Quintana or Contador in it. Even his team has said Nibali no longer leader at TDF this year.Interesting Froome is the only one that has won with all of the Fab 5 present.Conto has beaten I think Froome and Nibs at the same time but Not Quintana?
Gen Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Interesting Froome is the only one that has won with all of the Fab 5 present.Conto has beaten I think Froome and Nibs at the same time but Not Quintana?Quintanna crashed out at last yrs Vuelta. . It was during the TT.. can't think of other races they both race till now.. I could be wrong., there must be some race somewhere.
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Richie Porte is in the mountains jersey today, as he looks after it for his teammate Chris Froome. Thankfully no polka-dot shorts in sight
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 The leaders are on the Col d'Aspin. Let the fun begin!
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Grivko can't keep up with Martin and he's shelled out. Martin continues alone and he's cut the deficit to 2:30.
