Merci!
*doffs hat*
P.S. Thought the first 5 stage placings were a joke. Then I checked the Amgen web site. Heinrich must be full of QQ...0 -
On stage 1 I chummied up to the Amgen tacker and good 'ol Eurosport, in the optimistic
hope that I might see a slightly different ATOC.
After one stage and three lots of deja vu, I find myself once again slipping into a Cali coma."Science is a tool for cheaters". An anonymous French PE teacher.0 -
I've found that even though the stage wins have been the same, the action during the stages has generally been better than the Giro.Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.0

Kittel isnt very versatile. Not one top ten. Havent bothered to see if he was even there to contest anything.Contador is the Greatest0

Think they both have been very predictable. Sprints have been better that the Giro though.0 -
But it does sound like the live coverage missed out on all the action from yesterday's stage. Maybe some highlights would have been better to watch?0

No, he's German.0 -
I like the concept of Jens' bike, but the execution is cheesy. Kind of what you expect from Trek though.0

It's like a recurring nightmare, every night just after midnight I wake up on the sofa to see Peter Sagan celebrating.0

Fixed.
Jens is pretty much a cartoon character these days.0 -
Good TT by Gesink. Tour dark horse?0

Sagan making the most of the shelter from the "Massive" crowd along that dual carriageway0

Be interesting to see how he goes on "THE" stage to Mount Baldy.0 -

Hopefully Gesink can finally prove his worth in the Tour this year, if he can climb and TT at his best he could definitely get in on the action, maybe even on the podium. Every extra contender will hopefully make the racing more exciting.
He obviously won't win though, he rides for Rabobank after all."I have a lovely photo of a Camargue horse but will not post it now" (Frenchfighter - July 2013)0 -

Needs to stop crashing.
Bleeding carrot innit?
Hopefully he'll have recovered from his dad dying. I think everyone underestimated how much that affected him.0 -
woeful disparity in the quality of the field."If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way. What we're witnessing here is the world's most high profile mid-life crisis" Afx237vi Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:43 pm0

Boonen's properly tweeting now.
Need to get him to start tweeting me regularly without being a stalker person who tweet them about 70 times a day.
Hmmm...
Need to brush up on some edgy Dutch chat. Probably about cars or something.0 -

Boonen would probably regard that as a MILF'This week I 'ave been mostly been climbing like Basso - Shirley Basso.'0 -

For sure. He's already way ahead of the Schleck brothers.

He's already way ahead of the Schleck brothers with his strong TT performance yesterday. He'll be up there in the Tour if he doesn't crash himself out. Getting excited for the Tour!! www.1kmtogo.blogspot.com0 -
