See Robbie feels somethings wrong with the cutoffs this year..certainly have not seen 5 sprinter leave in 2 days..not normal at all.

 

I agree with earlier posts..really really hope Reinie and Impey get a chance now to go for something..they both really strong sprinters on the right type of finish.Same goes for EBH.

Sad fir Nibs..he had sone good form and was probably along with TD the best chance for an upset.

 

And what a ride by TD!!Not a climb that suit him but he was right up there! If they had 2 ITT's in this tour like normal I think Sky would be in trouble..

That ride by Kruijswijk

My word

That was courageous

I've been up and down the Col de la Croix de Fer on my amateur pins and it is massive

The run on valley floor towards Bourg-d'Oisans cost him just a bit too much

I am sure that this has been posted before, but for those who have not seen it, Enjoy.

 

Nice shots of Suikerbosrand for those wondering what it looks like

i think it's actually quite simple, they need to speak to the Katusha blokes, or just get Oleg back. because the ruskie cops did not take any nonsense like this last month!

I think the badger would back this plan

I often wonder why some of these self serving clowns call themselves cycling fans, there was one box running next to a rider (Nibali?) trying to take a selfie of himself and Nibali (?) WTFlip !!!!

 

And that’s just one incident, there are many more at every mountain stage at every race....

So we get an easy sprint day and then again two interesting days.

 

Saturdays finish up what used to be called Montée Jalabert is brutal. I once rode up it on my morning leg stretcher to get some croissaints, saw a short cut back to my friends and went over. Puked my croissaints back out near the top. 

 

Sunday is beautifull and near my back yard, not sure if I am gonna watch cos I am riding it with the ladies on saturday. There is a group of ladies who do all the stages the day before and a mate of mine joins them every year for one or two so this time I am going along. https://www.donnonsdeselles.net/donnons-des-elles-au-velo-j-1 Lets hope the heat stays away as predicted. And that last climb Pic the Nore has some brutal sections(been up it in the bus and up and of it on the mountainbike. Close enough to the finish as well for stage win brutal action.

Yip, and Nabili crashed as a result of a fan and has now abandored the race.
