Gen Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 Wishful thinking, know something we don't. .or just a gesture in support of Sagan, but his bike is on the way to the start Take a look at @TourDeJose's Tweet: https://twitter.com/TourDeJose/status/882511395576852480?s=09 Sent from my SM-N9005 using TapatalkAlso that bike on that car during the stage is going to get a lot of press.. a lot Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Fat Boab Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 What I find strange is the drone footage which shows the incident clearly is nowhere to be found/seen. It was the fault of the gunman behind the grassy knoll.......
Andrew Steer Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 From twitterdom #Cavendish knocking over Tom Veelers in Stage 10 Tour de France 2013. Result? Absolutely nothing. #TDF2017 #Sagan #noconsistency @LeTour Agree 100%, although that did look a lot more like a loss of balance compared with putting someone in the barriers with your change of line.
Jakkals. Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 I see my video links not working... this one hopefully does. You'll note Cav is on Demare's wheel the whole time... Sagan picked the wrong wheel pretty much. Cav lost Demare's wheel actually, he had his timing wrong, Sagan jumped for it. The elbow was a reaction not a action. Even on a Sunday ride with mates, if you feel you are against each other, the elbow follows naturally to keep you upright.
Andrew Steer Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 I know there are lots of Sagan fans around... and he's an incredible character and add's so much to the race, but he's definitely got a bit of aggro in him from time to time. A bid from the past to serve as a little reminder https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeRfygzw-ag&feature=youtu.be Anyways, looking forward to a cracking stage today!
Meentb Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 This picture clearly shows Cavendish trying to squeeze through a gap that wasnt really there. He leans on Sagan. Sagan regains balance by using elbows up. Knees in etc. I call Sagan not guilty of anything
s14phoenix Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 I think whoever sticks their head out first of the GC riders today is going to get it chopped off... Wont be surprised if all attacks are pointless and neutralized almost immediately. with 2 fairly flat stages to come before the big 2 before the rest day - going today may be too early. Will we perhaps see a win for a strong break away group?

Will we perhaps see a win for a strong break away group?I think some of the guys really have no choice..especially someone like Quintana.Not many hilltop finishes so they have to use it.Dan Martin will also give it a big go..He looked very sharp the other day.
nathrix Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 What does Lance say, for those who care or not (thousand apologies if the link was shared somewhere)... https://youtu.be/yyQHyGbS8aQ
JScottP Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 A quick question for those with better rider knowledge, and perhaps a bit of a conspiracy on my part, but does the DQ of Sagan help perhaps a frenchman like Demare or Bouhanni regain the green jersey for the French?

brucem76 Posted July 5, 2017 Posted July 5, 2017 Please can people stop posting single frames saying "this picture clearly shows..." No picture in isolation shows anything! There are 50 different stories to be told if any one picture is chosen. Only the multiple video angles in entirety tell us the story, and even then, there's stuff we're oblivious to.
