Vetplant Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 55km to go, 5.5km to the top of the CAT1 climb. Lead group has 7mins on the GC favourites
Vetplant Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 I don't know who the Producer is on the TDF feed at Supersport, but they sometimes choose the most shocking time to go to commercials. The lead group just had an attack and 5 seconds later the adds started...
JCA12 Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 Quick question, does it happen often where a person, who hasn't won a stage, wine the tour.

From the sports channel to "Channel 1". First time it happened I didn't know it was going to happen. Being used to advert breaks I sat watching the next program for ten minutes thinking it was an extended advert break! #fool
Stretch Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 At least we know someone will give it a big go today: Romain Bardet (AG2R-La Mondiale) told letour.com this morning: “I'm ready to fight. I've got nothing to lose. I already finished second in the Tour de France last year. Mental will prevail.Apparently he has stuck something on his top tube that says along the lines of "rather give it a go, and if it fails..at least i tried" in French it is probably like 2 words!

Bonus Posted July 20, 2017 Author Posted July 20, 2017 Whoever programmed the riders names into the graphics package for the tour spelled Atapuma's first name wrong. Every day when he's in a break etc it comes up as Jhon. #muppets
Bonus Posted July 20, 2017 Author Posted July 20, 2017 I see Louis is at the back of the Peloton. Hope he's ok
Oxter Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 I see Louis is at the back of the Peloton. Hope he's okwhat do you mean, isnt he the cummings op the gc guys? without the attack
Bonus Posted July 20, 2017 Author Posted July 20, 2017 I think the GC riders will catch Lutsenko.8km uphill is a long way
Oxter Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 Well...I was there and thereabouts! thought i saw it somewhere, but i like it
Patchelicious Posted July 20, 2017 Posted July 20, 2017 http://road.cc/sites/default/files/styles/main_width/public/romain-bardet-bike-19.jpg?itok=wcZU9R0UMerida needs to print that, and pin it to the guy who rides second last wheel in the front bunch so that Meintjies can read it!
