Bonus Posted September 5, 2016 Author Posted September 5, 2016 Where is Ronaldo and the rest of the pansy's to show them what real men do Ouch! My hair my hair!
Jewbacca Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Interesting you are now the 2e person i know to experience that.. my buddy in France goes to watch a few stages every year at the TDF and Dauphine .he also makes the trip to Belgium for Flanders..says the exact same thing.. says sky always corner off a big area and little to no interaction with the public. The one Sky rider that does interact is Thomas the rest Nada... Also probably explains why they aren't maybe as loved by the public as the other teams.. He also says DD ag you can walk up and go check the bikes.. you would probably even be allowed in the bus if you asked..[emoji23] [emoji23] Tinkoff much the same., very warm towards the fans. Those things make a difference IMOI've said before Bert spends a good 5 -10min before each stage taking pics and signing autographs.Wiggins was pretty vocal when he was there.... Always with the bad hair and the silly quirk. Must be a Froomdawg thing.
Gen Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 People just need to understand that to have firework days, you need boring days, or a blood bag... Something about cake and eating it...Absolutely.. you can't possibly go full gas every day.. I can't even go full gas for 2 consecutive days.. these guys aren't machines.. having 1 or 2 lumpy short days in between are awesome.. or chuck in a couple of spring classic type stages..[emoji106] but they have for the last couple of years been doing that in all the GT'S..
Cav' Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Wednesday and Saturday are 2 monster days again!
Gen Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 17km to go 13 seconds.. Tinkoff lead the chase..
'Dale Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 The race is heading to the coast but then turns right for a loop in land before hitting the sea front with the big left turn. The cross wind blowing from the sea will also play a factor today. Watch for riders to sprint up the left side if the breeze is coming off the sea.
'Dale Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 The breakaways are struggling into a cross-head wind. It is hurting the six riders but also affecting the peloton.
'Dale Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Gianni Meerman (Etixx) has won two stages so far but don't forget Kristian Sbaragli (Dimension Data).
'Dale Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 And the chasing wolves can see the leading trio..... 13 secs They'll sizzle there for a while before the sprint trains kick in
Gen Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Sky are trying to force the split.. but Movistar and Tinkoff are having none of it
Gen Posted September 5, 2016 Posted September 5, 2016 Roads are narrow and twisty hey.. lots can happen.
