'Dale Posted September 7, 2016 Share "I’ve had a rough season, not much was working as I wanted – I had to abandon the Tour de Suisse and the Tour de France. So I came here and I told myself I want to have fun, get a good feeling back. To finally have a victory after more than two years, winning a Grand Tour stage, it’s just amazing."

Mntboy Posted September 7, 2016 Share He's as cool as ice, manA real introvert My kinda PROLet his legs do the talking ????Davide Formolo shaping to be rather similar ito approach to racing. Just gets on with it. Looking set to get a decent result out if this edit of the Vuelta. Like the Argyle lads. They seem to have a lekker team spirit!

Mntboy Posted September 7, 2016 Share Mmm.. I reckon Bert will take time on Chavez in the ITT.Ja Friday is going to be a banger of a day for the GC. Can Monotron hold on to his race lead? Not entirely sure 3:37 is a big enough lead. Not if Froome can dig deep and find his ITT form. Sent from my GT-S6790 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted September 7, 2016 Share Meanwhile, in the women's peloton: Just one month after her horrific crash in the Rio Olympic road race, Annemiek van Vleuten (Orica-AIS) is looking to make her return to the peloton at the four-dayBelgium Lotto Tour starting Tuesday, Sept. 6. “I’m excited to be back,” said Van Vleuten, who just a few weeks ago was still bruised and battered with a severe concussion and three broken vertebrae. #soccersissies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted September 7, 2016 Share Cool PRO blog: Being part of the grand tour circus is, I surmise, a bit like having amnesia. I keep reliving what is essentially the same day over and over again. Like a cartoon character I wear the same outfit every day, I eat the same thing for breakfast (two bowls of oatmeal, an omelet with cheese, and two pieces of toast), and the same song loops over and over again at the race start. I feel stuck in an infinite loop of overly complicated computer code.

dev null Posted September 7, 2016 Share That last climb had more than double the incline of the Steenbras climb, at almost the same distance. I can understand how hard it must be. I have to take 2 rests up the Steenbras climb just so that I can get my breath back and let the heart rate subside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
