Eugene Oppelt Posted March 19 Posted March 19 Rain forecasted overnight. Portage segments, including a river crossing early on if there is substantive rain. The queen stage beckons. There’ll be grime, mud, slippery marbles and knobblies of note. 📸 @whoshotpippa ChrisF, Prince Albert Cycles, Mook and 1 other 2 2

And it will be unfair of us to expect so much from Tristan so early in his career. It might have been different if he was Beer's partner from the outset so that they could train together for a year. Wait. Beers and nortje have chased back from punctures that cost them 4min and 3 min, and still sit only 1:37 back from the leaders? Tristan was hurting big time today yet they still only lost 24 seconds. Jeezuz, but you write people off from your couch very quickly. Sure it's advantage Wilier but they could lose 10 minutes tomorrow. W Smith, SomeoneFlying, ChrisF and 7 others 8 2

Ouch 🤕 Looks like just chipped teeth probably bit too hard during the crash. I suspect this is what happened because she doesn’t have any facial injuries around the mouth 👄 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DWErIVnCCER/?igsh=czQ3dm1xb2xuam8= nathrix, babse, DieselnDust and 1 other 4

love2fly Posted March 20 Posted March 20 I'm hoping Tristan was just sticking to his power numbers yesterday to save it for a big hit today. Anyone see a Matt Beers post race interview. Looks like Tristan got a little held up by that spill ahead of him and then just didn't have the gas?

Eugene Oppelt Posted March 20 Posted March 20 The SA Marathon champ looking resplendent in his white kit on a damp Friday morning. Kudos to his soigneur for keeping that clean. That was an impressive stage win a few days ago. Prediction: The red jersey to fall further behind the Italians in yellow. Lill and her Swiss teammate to extend their handy lead. For the amateurs, oe jinne, the cracks will widen on any gaps in their training. And partnerships will be deeply tested with character revealed throughout.

Wasn't he partnered with Beers previously? I think we underestimate what an absolute machine Matt Beers is. 2 things that brings absolute delight and pleasure to South Africans is Beers stringing out the bunch and the Springbok pack dominating the opposition.

BuffsVintageBikes Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Oh jinne mense, vandag gaan die poppe dans, dis 'n k@k tawwe skof die 🙃 I was sad to see Rosa abandon yesterday, I've been following their daily podcast on YouTube and they're really put in a massive amount of effort to be competitive, both their men & women's teams. Broken front teeth are extremely painful, all the nerves are exposed and even air on them is unbearable. DieselnDust, Daniel de V and ChrisF 3
W@nted Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Pritzen is continuing alone. Stehli out of the epic due to illness. DieselnDust 1
