Mountain Bru Posted July 5 Share 2 hours ago, NicholasT said: Madness! To be fair, he slowed down so much that his fans blocked the entire road, and then he stopped to kiss his wife. Not the best situation when the next rider probably started 1min30 behind him. The guys a beast thought. I think I heard he still finished with a 46 kph average speed. Did they fine the FDJ dude that was drafting for half the TT? DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyatt Earp Posted July 6 Share The UCI fining Bernard, has backfired on them. The most epic moment in yesterday’s RPReplay_Final1720241441.mov stage getting all the airtime it deserves. Thank you UCI, 200 CHF is quite an affordable rate. ajnkzn and NicholasT 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotSoBigBen Posted July 6 Share Unpopular opinion perhaps but I don't think the sanction is unreasonable, it's a critical TT in a 'rather important RACE' not some dawdling along wait till we sprint later stage, maar nou ja hier sit ons Mountain Bru 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the riders coming in 60th place really care about the TT all that much. DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomo Posted July 6 Share Lesser skilled rider if he had to stop. Riders of the past known for this sort of thing would do it on the go while popping a wheelie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted July 6 Share And the maillot vert in Girmay wins again. The first rider to win twice in this year’s Tour de France and also the second ever win for IWG. Tomorrow the so-called Spirit Of Grêvvel visits the Tour with 14 segments over 32 kilometres. Tyre choices, tyre pressure debates, choosing the right racing line, staying near the front, and more.

Some suspected a shakeup in GC, but this did not happen. It was a bit strange to see Remco getting dropped consistently on the gravel. His annoyance with Pogi and FishFingers was not justified, they understand that there are 2 weeks left.

Bloody amateur, in the old days they stopped for a quick shag in the bushes.... nowadays I suspect so many fans pose a problem for privacy. mecheng89 and betaboy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
