Popit Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Well ridden Aru ....To hold the bunch at never more than 14 sec for 12km is brilliant . Just shows how bad some of these guys want to win .......Loved it ... Cycling at its best .
Bonus Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Ja ja and Froome's enhaler and failure to pitch for doping controls. Let's not go down this route now let's actually just enjoy and discuss what we see...[emoji39] We have seen Bert have to ride against his rivals and his own team.. We've seen him isolated so many times... but he keeps on fighting. No crying to mommy not to many tantrums I don't think.. Quintana too is calm and collected (most of the times.). You have gotta be tough as nails physically and mentally to be a top GC Contender. EDIT.. to be a successful cyclist Remember Bertie on Astana with Lance and Co? He was a One-Man-Band and he shat all over everybody. "Contador is a man from a poor family in Pinto, whose parents didn’t have enough money to buy him a bike or come and see him race. He was first spotted at 15 by Javier Fernandez (team Embajadores) who saw him putting older riders to the sword whilst riding a very heavy Orbea and his tracksuit flapping all over the place. He has been winning ever since." Shame about the meat story, it put me off a bit but I still like him.
'Dale Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 STAGE 4 The average speed after two hours of racing, incidentally, was 31.6kph. The block headwind means that the race is currently lagging well behind the slowest predicted schedule - which means all the more action when live television coverage starts later in the afternoon.
'Dale Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 After 16 kilometres, our three leaders have an advantage of 3:30 over the peloton as they approach the town of Châteauneuf-de-Galaure.
'Dale Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Maxime Bouet (Etixx-Quick Step), Bryan Nauleau (Direct Energie) and Frederik Veuchelen (Wanty-Groupe Gobert) represent the break
Mntboy Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 As Bouet, Veuchelen andNauleau approach the category 4climb of Côte de la Chapelle-de-la-Tour, they hold a lead of 3:55over the peloton. The latest from CN's live coverage. 95k's to go! Sent from my GT-S6790 using Tapatalk
'Dale Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 BTW there is one non-starter to report, as Damien Howson (Orica-GreenEdge) has withdrawn from the Dauphine. Considering his exploits in support of Esteban Chaves at the recent Giro d'Italia, the Australian must have running on empty here.
'Dale Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Bouet, 82nd overall at 11:02, is the best-placed man in this move, so they ought to have no problems in getting a day pass from Tinkoff.

HappyMartin Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Long shot makes him look better The slightly out of focus image also helps
