Patchelicious Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 So it turns out this was not Simons first big win of the season! We thought this name rang a bell and then found this bad boy: 99er.PNG Took top spot at the 99er earlier this year, that kind of pre season warm up is what TDF stage winners need. Also to note, I was only 3 min behind him on that day, unlike some Mr yellow jersey today Great to see the oke do well today, he was not gritting his teeth that much at the bottom of Vissershoek compared to today. Only 3minutes you say? He beat doper Froome by more than that!! Do by Hub science that makes you dirty!! Sis!!

In fact, will post it to anyone on the hub that wants No save it, there are a few pros that we can go throw it at! All we need to do is draw on some thin mustaches and speak with French accents!

I also remembered his name, and now I am officially calling for Phil and Paul's heads, as they said his only 2 previous professional victories were some minor nonsense like the Criterium International, and some other rubbish. The 99er,too,numpties!!
T-Bob Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 Jeez didn't see the world champ pulling put today. Saw no coverage of that. Nice to see Simon G' crying like a baby in the interviews. Love the emotion.

NixM Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 How does the best placed team work? Is it an average time of all the riders in the yeam, top 5 riders in a team? Can't be the sum of all riders because some teams are down to only 5/6 men.

Gen Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Okay.. full -ish story here. Bert seemed to have hit a hole or a something and went down.. Rodgers and Sagan stopped to help fix Bert's wheel then Bert & Sagan proceeded down the descent, but had to stop a little bit further as it seems the wheel was kaput or something and Sagan gave him his bike. as stated somewhere yesterday, Bert stopped on the last climb to get one of his spare bikes, there was apparently communication issues with Majka's radio and he didn't hear the call to stop and wait for Bert (that's the story Majka is going with and sticking with).. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FB146_3PiHM&feature=youtu.be
Gen Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Oh flippen hell, I forgot to set the PVR... I'll be home just after 3.. so i will still get to watch that pretty climb hey, it's mos close to the finish.
