DieselnDust Posted July 21 Posted July 21 What a tour!! Spinnaroonie, mecheng89, Robbie Stewart and 8 others 11
Robbie Stewart Posted July 21 Posted July 21 What an amazing stage. Big kudos to everyone, but Tadej Pogacar just put on a masterclass. mecheng89, Vetplant, Underachiever and 2 others 5
DieselnDust Posted July 21 Posted July 21 No one thanked Vinokourov for convincing Cavendish to stay another year and go for the record in 2024 cadenceblur 1
cadenceblur Posted July 21 Posted July 21 Wow , what a tour Well done Bini! Well done Mark and chapeau Tadej, you stamped your authority on this event and won it in a dominant and equally entertaining style! Underachiever, Rowl, DieselnDust and 2 others 5

betaboy Posted July 22 Posted July 22 Won’t be a TDF like this for another 50 years, mad course, new and old records set, smaller teams winning and a Solv-Alien who is only comfortable in yellow and a runner up who came back from the dead! OVERDRIVE and Vetplant 2

DJR Posted July 22 Posted July 22 (edited) 1 hour ago, Mongoose! said: definitely not Eddy... I am an old Eddy Merckx fan (yes, I know he doped) and I suspect even he may be secretly amazed at what Cavendish did..........but then...........if you consider that Eddys' stage wins came from mountain stages, sprints and time trials (not just sprints) and that he won all the jerseys (green, polka and yellow), ........perhaps The Cannibal is still the greatest? Besides, having a nickname like "Sir" is just lame. 😉 Ps. Tongue in cheek warning Edited July 22 by DJR mecheng89 and Prince Albert Cycles 1 1

Nakoota Posted July 22 Posted July 22 Hi had Pog's spare bike ready just in case he needed it. What a tour! DJR, reteid, Underachiever and 2 others 3 1 1
dexterdent Posted July 22 Posted July 22 After a period where the TDF started to get a bit samey, and boring, I think we have now had 5 years of great tours. This one in particular had like 2 or 3 boring stages at the most - so many cool stories. Proper battles for green and polka too. This new style of all-out attack really elevates the tour. I hope we get a fully fit big 4 competing next year. Super combative should have gone to Abrahamsen though. Vetplant and Spinnaroonie 2
