Never mind first shame he had a terrible year in the stripes

 

Can't see the same curse going down for Sagan in '16. 

 

So here is a Q: If it's ultimately bad to wear a replica race jersey like the WC stripes through Fishhoek, go training up Chapmans in your yellow jersey or take the Llandudno speed gun in your Rosa, what about world champ / grand tour replica bikes? Kool or ***?

Personally I would not wear a WC jersey. The WC bikes are different IMO. They are tribute bikes for the WC win. So would any of us say no to owning a Sarroni tribute Colnago? As long a the Sagan Tarmacs have same paintscheme minus his name on the top tube.

The ever smiling Chaves of OGE took out the queen stage nicely today. Wout Poels crashed out on the final corner after chasing down the Colombians attack and hitting the front straight away to get bast exit out of the 180 degree corner.

 

Hopefully he's done enough to take his first stage race win as a pro. Aru is 16 back and Woet at 26. Better believe Astana will home out guns tomorrow to drop Chaves and OGE.

"“I can only say sorry to Poels for what happened to him but that’s a race situation,” Chaves said. “When I won I didn’t think it was correct to raise my arms and celebrate. I won but that’s sport.”

"“This was the hottest race of my life,” Chaves said. Today I used between 30 and 35 bottles of water to stay cool. We used ice bags on our arms and legs to keep the body temperature as low as possible"

 

35 bottles?!! Like riding in an oven.

And that's it.. Chaves wins the GC.. (first of many I think)

 

Viviani just just wins the last stage.. great sprint between him and Sagan.. but Viviani is the faster man.. ag we like him too

 

And now they had their UCI award ceremony and everyone can go have a couple of beers.. eat some cake and enjoy the off season.. until the madness starts again in Jan. Phew.. what a season it has been. .
