Mind the gap

Sorry meant, check that gap......

He still had a lot left in his legs and was eager to get to his trainer for some spinning before the podium show.  :lol:

I don't follow Sky on social media, but do they do live FB broadcasts?

 

I follow Tinkoff and they do a Live broadcast every day before the stage starts , I always love watching how much time the guys spend greeting the fans and especially kids before they head off to sign in.

 

I know that often causes Sagan to be late for sign in an so on ha ha ha.

 

But I see Bertie also signs as many caps and papers at what he can.. shame now he even got his bike after signing and then still first stopped again to sign some more and take pics with the kids.. and all that while being ushered on by a staff member.

 

 

The biggest issue was to stop people from touching the shoulder he fell on.. cycling is probably the only sport where people get to get so close to the athletes while they race and before and after. Really is a special sport.

Pathetic dig

Come on Swiss. Don't be so sensitive. I thought it lead to an even greater comeback.

and make Cav even more upset jealous? [emoji317]

Cav isn't upset..only traumatized after Froome's celebration[emoji6]

 

Wait today Froome will do that little bike throw thing on the line.. so funny it's the only time he doesn't do his chicken imitation.

 

 

You know Froome is a great rider.. we all will admit that..but that makes me think of a young kid that has seen the sprinters throw their bikes at the line and when riding gets to his finish line and then remembers to throw the bike on the line.[emoji23] [emoji23]

I'm filled with envy. (any pics of you and Tommeke?)

But i'll chill now.

By now everyone should know that I can not stand Froome. Even if he crossed the line nonchalantly I'd still be pissed that he won the race. 

 

But seeing as he's winning everything (During GT's) I'll play nice.

 

Go Froome, Go  :unsure:
