Vetplant Posted July 8, 2021 Share 13 riders off the front. Rest of the peloton has come back together. Might be hard for DQS to control this day and ensure a Sprint for Cav DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranting on on how Podjacar had cracked and that Jonas was riding into yellow the commentators on SS are extremely annoying, the aussie always falling over his words and the other one STILL cant pronounce Pogacar correctly, nevermind the fact that he seemingly cracked etc dexterdent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Bru Posted July 8, 2021 Share Sagan says he banged his knee on his handlebar and hurt it, and thats why he left. Was this always a thing? It seems knee injuries have become really common among the sprinters? Bonus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My tour dreams of him winning a stage are officially over! ???? what a pity, but his knee said that it won’t take him to Paris! So I guess you have to listen or risk further injury. My ultimate stage finish would of been Cav and Sagan in Paris fighting  it out! That would of been an epic way to end the 2021 edition. TheoG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems knee injuries have become really common among the sprinters? Clearly a lie. In a clash between Sagan's knee and a pair of handlebars, there is only one winner. He must just be a bit tired. DieselnDust, DIPSLICK, betaboy and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerrans (the aussie) just repeats exactly what Ant says when he gets asked a question: Ant: "Simon, given that this group is 5 minutes ahead and it is raining, will they be able to bridge over from the peleton?" Gerrans: "Well yes exactly, its raining, and they are 5 minutes ahead, so it remains to be seen if they can bridge over from the peleton" Edited July 8, 2021 by dexterdent jimmycool, NickGM, Long Wheel Base and 4 others 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
