tombeej Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 I know this is a race, but maybe Tekl-polka-dot should ease up the pace and save the legs for tomorrows KOM stage point, which is 99.5km into the stage... (Just a thought) Best variant so far
Gen Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Best variant so far [emoji106]But in the break he scores me points[emoji13]
RoddieJ Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 But in the break he scores me points[emoji13]Agree... But I think @tombeej was referring to his name...
SwissVan Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Seems Nibali was very cross and actually threw his bidon and Froome... hmmm http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/racing/tour-de-france/chris-froome-heads-to-astana-bus-to-talk-with-vincenzo-nibali-after-stage-six-crash-181620 As he says though, “Did we clear it all up? Yeah! We are not footballers, we are cyclists!” haha - too true. I watched Tony Martins fall a number of times and cannot figure out why he fell, seemed to be all of his own doing...but the overhead film footage does not get close enough to see what happened. Looks like to me he tried to lean right maybe to avoid something on his left as he was near the railing maybe a spectators camera or phone on a selfie stick?
Gen Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Agree... But I think @tombeej was referring to his name... [emoji106]Oh [emoji85] I am having this whole selective reading going on ...again

Looks like to me he tried to lean right maybe to avoid something on his left as he was near the railing maybe a spectators camera or phone on a selfie stick?He said he touched europecar rider's wheel. And I think he lost balance and tried to compensate for bike and body going in opposite directions and then down he went.
Gen Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 And sagan wins the sprint. . Out of the rest.. breakaway collected most of the points. Correction apparently Degenkolb was in front of sagan..

Looks like to me he tried to lean right maybe to avoid something on his left as he was near the railing maybe a spectators camera or phone on a selfie stick? The commentators also mentioned a wheel touch with Coquard but I could not see anything. Also looked to me like he suddenly veered/leaned right.
Gen Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 118km to go gap at 2'30.. peloton looking relaxed and joking abouts a bit.. the sun is shining.
isn Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Out of interest, does anyone know if the TdF race rules are available on the interweb? And are the daily fines published eg long bottles, irregular feeding, peeing in 'public'? The google machine is letting me down.....

isn Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 http://www.procyclingstats.com/race/Tour_de_France_2015_Stage_7_Fougeres Best place for all results and stats
StevieL Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 The gorilla in green better watch his back, Sagan is creeping up slowly... 3 points adrift
RoddieJ Posted July 10, 2015 Posted July 10, 2015 Here's a link some may find interesting... If you are interested in the points and prize-money on offer... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/othersports/cycling/tour-de-france/11703357/Tour-de-France-2015-Stage-by-stage-guide.html Great weekend to all, and thx for all your updates (It's Friday, and my beer's calling...)
