Gen Posted July 10, 2019 Share I obviously missed something..... why is Simon Yates down by 26 minutes on yellow jersey?He lost time during the TTT, he sat up today, saving energy where he can to be able to support Adam. seanp, DieselnDust and Vetplant 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vetplant Posted July 11, 2019 Share For those not getting the "Secret Pro Newsletter" "everyone is visibly nervous about la Planche tomorrow. We're all hearing conflicting reports on what the last kilometre which apparently hits 24% actually looks like. Gravel? Dirt? Paved? Something in-between?" What do you guys think, are we seeing one or more of the supposed GC contenders dropping out of the running today? Or all-together over the line, with 5 to 10s lost at most by the top guys? I think this will be a massive test for Geraint and Fuglsang... Bernal on the other hand would probably like to steal some more seconds on his rivals. m-squared 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nochain Posted July 11, 2019 Share Why would they have Impey leadout Trentin? I would think it should be the other way around??Can't wait for tomorrow..really hope Ineos dont hold Bernal back! Will be good for the race if they let him do his thing. Vetplant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottCM Posted July 11, 2019 Share Amazing to see EBH finish 12th after he dropped on the final hill. That sort of grit and determination is somethin DDD has missed while supporting Cav Gen, Underachiever, Mntboy and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vetplant Posted July 11, 2019 Share Please post link to full articleNo link to share, I receive a short mail in my inbox every morning. You can sign up at Cyclingtips. Here is the full text of the email that popped in my inbox at 2AM this morning: The Secret Pro's Tour de France newsletter comes straight to your inbox throughout July every weekday.   Bonjour readers, The official transfer window opens up in August but now is when everyone is scrambling to firm up their contracts. We hear the same rumours as you do but one that I haven't seen reported anywhere is what's happening to Mikel Landa. Apparently Movistar has not offered him a contract for next year and word on the street is we won’t see him working for anybody as of yet. Nobody is interested in him.  Here's a photo of Landa before today's stage chatting to Dave Brailsford. Trying to rebuild some bridges, perhaps...? Everything's pretty quiet in the team today – everyone is visibly nervous about la Planche tomorrow. We're all hearing conflicting reports on what the last kilometre which apparently hits 24% actually looks like. Gravel? Dirt? Paved? Something in-between? Until tomorrow...  Yours truly,    TSP ScottCM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwissVan Posted July 11, 2019 Share Today might turn out to be a bit of a disappointment for us spectators, hope I’m wrong. Its still early days and the GC contenders have to think of that last week. I think we will see the weaker GC contenders loose some time while the rest will all be marking each other without attacking flat out. Hoping for a good showing by Enrique Mas to take over the white jersey and my wild card rider Romain Kreuziger to try make a move.
