2017 Tour de France

A nice pic of that elbow

 

 

Can clearly see that the elbow is being used for balance - ja right

How many people balance like that on a bike ??

ASO is pronounced 'arsehole' if you speak English with a ridiculous French accent. Or is that Mexican. #random

My man Froomey... Every day.

Except that is not true. There are a number of cycling fans (possibly biased due to loyalty) and a number of past and present riders that say ot is the correct descision.

 

As for the media houses, Sagan is on £6m a year because he draws the media attention. They are seeing their tour star attraction being excluded and know that it will cost them viewership/readership numbers. No wonder they are acting like fans.

Will be interesting to see how much exposure he has garnered over the past day with his expulsion. It will have been a substantial amount more than normally, but the tour is 3 weeks long. They have got a much further reach for their sponsors as not just cyclists are now exposed to the story. Normally just cycling fans would be exposed. 

 

IF BORA were REALLY smart, they have bought hours and hours of ad space with eurosport. I would have Peter Sagan in the studio first thing this morning or last night making a video of him cooking on a BORA stove and then showering under a Hansgrohe shower. and do like a VLOG each day in their advert spot. Would give them some massive exposure and lots of people would talk about that.

Fact, repeated:

 

The rainbow elbow never touched the Manx Missile ????????

I don't think the French even know that there was a crash yesterday. They only saw Demare win a stage at the TDF. 

 

Hey, anyone know why Demare had no FDJ branding on the biggest tricolor skin suit ever? Wonder if FDJ are peed about that.

They apparently do have a lot of advertising slots. .

 

BUT

 

They are handling this very well..

 

Spare a thought for Juraj who as his room mate would've had one hell of a job keeping Sagan calm.. and I know Sags is a chill guy but no way he would've been chill last night. Even if they change the decision it would've already had a negative impact on the team..don't think many people at Bora would've slept well if at all last night and we know cyclist need rest.

Ok 10 bucks on Porte being first to attack today...will be him or Fugelsang..They both a bit overcooked and need to gain time while they have the form.

Or Froome is going to surprise us and go big.

YES I know. .

 

Ha the commentator spoke about it yesterday.. their team manager is a purest and believes the French jersey doesn't need to be covered in sponsor logo.

You gotta do the best with situation you are served. 

 

Do you think anyone would notice if Peter slipped into his brothers Slovak national jersey and rode today?

 

*obviously would cut his hair and wear motocross goggles. duh*

A post with no mention of the word fact, elbow, line or unfair. You seem to be missing the thread today, we are beating a dead horse still
