The Ghost Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 No pressure here Landa Vetplant and Gen 2
Vetplant Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Clawing back the time on the leaders up the road, could be down to 1min30 by the time the GC guys reach this summit. Opens the door for Pog to claim bonus seconds and get within pouncing distance of Roglic by the end of this stage... Looking forward to that bike path! Gen 1
daveno7 Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Bahrain on the front at the moment...too early?....Unless Landa is strong today and is planning something... Vetplant 1
Bonus Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Great to see Dan Martin in the break :-) Vetplant and Ispeed_V 2
The Ghost Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Great to see Dan Martin in the break :-)Feeling overshadowed by the other 2 countrymen and needed to lift his game? [emoji1] Bonus and Vetplant 2
The Ghost Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 (edited) Rain starting apparently.It must be very light, can’t see it and the roads still look good Edited September 16, 2020 by The Ghost Vetplant 1
Chris_ Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Pog might have gotten KOM jersey with that sneaky move DieselnDust and Vetplant 2
The Ghost Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 He did DieselnDust, Chris_ and Vetplant 3
Vetplant Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Pog might have gotten KOM jersey with that sneaky moveWinner of the stage gets 40 points according to the commentator... More than Cosnefroy has at the start of Stage 17 today...
The Ghost Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 How big a gap to this group of leaders is too big to bridge on the final climb?

DieselnDust Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Stage 17 summary: "Both Primoz Roglic and Tadej Pogacar who occupy the first two places of the overall classification spoke about stage 17 as the queen stage of this year’s Tour de France. They’ve recced the unprecedented uphill to col de la Loze. After the lockdown period, the Jumbo-Visma team made Tignes their permanent training camp, so it wasn’t far for Roglic to go to col de la Loze several times. It’s a fairly new road. It’s actually a ski slope that has been recently asphalted for mountain bikes to go from Méribel to Courchevel and vice versa" This has Roglic written all over it with a big incentive for Teddy to at least get the thickness of a tubby in front to gain 4 bonus seconds over Roglic. Its going to be fireworks, unless it isn't Vetplant 1
Gen Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 20mins.... [emoji317] I don't think they will survive the charging GC contendersNope they will finish well behind the peloton... think a few riders on a cycle about out front are doing some last prep for Worlds next week.[emoji6] The Ghost and Vetplant 2
DieselnDust Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 What is missing is the combined Jersey. That's the one that looked like a hastily cobbled together jersey from offcuts from the other Jerseys. Cant remember when last that jersey was used in LeTour. I reckon Teddy would be wearing it today if it was still part of the show Vetplant 1
The Ghost Posted September 16, 2020 Posted September 16, 2020 Rain starting apparently.It must be very light, can’t see it and the roads still look goodWell that ended up being a non event then hey [emoji1] Vetplant 1
