Trackz Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 Allow me to dream for a second.<dream on>Froome in the break today, he's far enough back to be allowed to go, then attacking the break with 50km to go and soloing to stage victory, Giro 2018 style, salvaging his all but lost chance to make Ineos team for TDF 2020.<dream off>The way the last few weeks in the peloton have played out, little will surprise me.
Wayne pudding Mol Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 Really hope so. He is Saffa and we need to support him! Not sure what has happened the last two years and those in the know do not share. My point of view: Ride with intent if you protected, domestique or hunting for stage wins. If he is a protected rider, sit up in the peloton, show a collective strength. Team mates around him and pay back for their support by showing your team colours in the finish. If he is a domestique ride like that, support your team leaders, pull at the front for your whole worth and sit up after job done, once again showing your team colours. If he is in the hunt for stage wins in a breakaway, be in the front not at the back... I agree with everything you said but I was joking about him sandbagging, no comic sans on my phone
Wayne pudding Mol Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 Yoh Thanks 2020... You can't make this s#it upI have posted this story before On the 4th of Jan I sat in the Full Stop pub in Cape St Francis a little too early in the day with my mate - we'd both had a terrible 2019. A few too many Wildside IPA's in he or I said, at least it can't get worse, here's to 2020 So basically I'd like to apologise to everyone for making 2020 so sh!t

Gen Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 #Dauphine - Fast start. "Breakaway" with Lutsenko, Castroviejo, Sivakov, Pinot, Alaphilippe, Dumoulin, Kuss, Van Aert, Bardet, Pogacar, Yates, Hirschi, Landa, Neilands and Barta. GC riders who missed the break: Lopez, Martinez, Quintana and Porte. #Dauphine
Vetplant Posted August 16, 2020 Author Posted August 16, 2020 Crazy! What do you call a breakaway which has the GC contenders representing?! And yet no live TV of how it happened. I get that helicopter fuel is expensive, but can't we just have 2 motorbikes with video cameras for the first 2 hours? No commentary necessary.
Vetplant Posted August 16, 2020 Author Posted August 16, 2020 What time does the SS live coverage start?2 hours from now...

Eugene Oppelt Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 I still remember Pinot's painful sobs on the mountain slopes deep into the 3rd week of the Tour de France as his injuries overcame him. Winning this 'home race' will mean tons for the Frenchie and his team, never mind a rare GC jersey to frame in his training room at home.

I think the whole cycling world mourned that day..
The Ghost Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 [emoji632] #Dauphiné As a result of his crash yesterday, Primoz Roglic - leader in the GC and points classification - won’t start in the ultimate stage today. The evolution of his injuries will determine the plans for the upcoming races. Speedy recovery, @rogla [emoji1696] https://t.co/xvam2hlX69Oh man [emoji17]
Gen Posted August 16, 2020 Posted August 16, 2020 More and more attacks.. while we refresh twitter [emoji17]
