Later on when the riders came past where we'd parked, around the 28km to go mark, LM saw the flags on the car and, whilst riding flat out in the Froome group, gave Wendy a smile and a wave.

 

This guy is unbelievable!

 

Also, every DDD car that went passed us also gave us a beep and a wave. Top guys.

Awesome.. flip no I need to move to Spain... do you need a gardener or a maid.. I can do it see.. I will work hard.[emoji6]

I wasn't talking about the link or team Sky, was talking about you trying to blast at me.

No, you reference was to my research and the incorrectness of it... so do not try to make it out as personal to you!!

 

However if you wish to post your personal views with regard to Sky and Froome, then expect comment!!  Rather keeps your own views to yourself and discuss the racing, tactics etc.

 

Lets face it, these guys are busting a gut, bleeding through the eyes day in day out for us to revel and enjoy, whether you like them or not at least respect what they are doing!!

Then we wandered around the sign-on area and, accidently (honest guv’nor!) into the Riders Only area which was still being set up. I managed to grab a few snaps before we were noticed . . . :-)

 

Check the guy on the "Virtual reality" bike!

Next we put our bikes together so we could take a ride around the town checking the place out. Hoping to catch sight of a team bus at a hotel and meet some riders but it seems that no team stayed in Sabiñánigo that night!

 

Gotta keep them cars clean!

We did see some bits and pieces though, including some of the motos that bring us the coverage we enjoy! Inside the blue side box on the bike is a satellite link setup that transmits the live pics. The box was open when I started taking photos but the camera man who was there shut it – he apologised but said the equipment was “secret”. . . .

We're trying to, have been the whole season. (you would've known I don't like Froome if you participated more)

 

Bonus is trying to share his awesome pics and your still carrying on about sucking Froome off.

 

So keep your replies to yourself. 

I hate Froome, Sky and now You. So get the hell out of my way.

Back to the carpark and a short time later the team buses began to arrive. Amazing atmosphere, lots of very tolerant police and lots of well mannered fans.

Love how Cannondale kept the Argyle on their kit/bus etc.
