From my experience living in Europe the French have the worst personal hygiene..... Closely followed by the Irish. ????

TheoG Posted June 28, 2021 Share I would not mind at all if Cav or Sags take todays stage. Long Wheel Base and Vetplant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselnDust Posted June 28, 2021 Share interesting that Davide Ballerini doesn't get a mention. Today is a day that Quikstep can play games. The only thing we know is that Alaphillipe will attack. Which brings Ballerini into the fray at the finish Edited June 28, 2021 by DieselnDust lechatnoir and Vetplant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which brings Ballerini into the fray at the finish So many sprinters that one can mention, the list will be very long if we need to consider all the contenders for the stage. Arnaud Demare for example, pretty sure FDJ would want him to contest here. Not Pan-Flat stage though, so a breakaway late in the stage is a real threat. Much like the victories by Kragh Andersen last year. Don't wait for the final 5km before you tune in peeps. There might be some fun a bit earlier than that.

All that sci-fi stuff in the movies where the CIA can see you anywhere on earth if your left earlobe slightly shows under a hoody and send a drone to fry you only works on enemies of the USA.????

DQS will be trying to outboss Ineos. Lotto in with their train, FDJ in for Demare (with little support), Jumbo will need to keep themselves out of trouble and Pog will surf along on some wave or other. Add some potentially tricky roads and some rain and we'll have something to talk about after. Actually, a Demare win will be great - dude has lovely teeth when he smiles. He has a snappy sprint too Whoever misses out today has another shot tomorrow Vetplant and DieselnDust 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnaud Demare for example, pretty sure FDJ would want him to contest here. Agreed... Superbru picks were pretty straight forward for the last 2 days, but today is a mystery. What I'm sure about though is that Sagan will be top 5 in his quest for green. I don't think he's quicker than Caleb though, and Cav has the advantage of having the best leadout man in Morkov. Such a pity Sam Bennet is injured though and not also in the mix Edited June 28, 2021 by Mountain Bru Vetplant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselnDust Posted June 28, 2021 Share I reckon the break away takes the win today. If its a technical lead into the finish straight maybe eve our classics riders could keep a break to the line but with a 1400m straight They'd need quite a gap. This will need to go on the Cote de Plumeliau. Then its the challenge of staying away for 34.5km to the finish. How special will a MVDP break with WvA and JA be here....<dream on dreamer> Vetplant, matthieup and TheoG 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
