A true scalp is not only overtaking someone but leaving them stopped at a set of lights. As you, who have clearly beaten the lights, pummels nothing but the open air ahead. ~ 'DondaddyD'. Player of the Unspoken Game0 -
Whilst we're all complaing about this year's tour, I would like to add how frustrating I find it that the two best riders are on the same team.0

The Wookie getting across too!"In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"

The Dutch avondetppe have a "where's Jonny?" feature every day.
Recently had an interview with him. At the beginning of the TOur they were mocking his haircut (super short - looks ridiculous) Now he has a helmet vent shaped tan on his forehead so he looks even more ridiculous.
He's hilarious in interviews.
Classic example. Massive crash in the peloton, and suddenly, having missed it all, at the back, you see Jonny up shouting "I need a rear wheel!" when there's carnage behind him.0 -

I shouted "Come on Brad" as he went over the Galibier back in 2007 when he was just some sh*t rider.0 -
Any links to a decent live stream? ITVs keeps buffering every 15 seconds and practically all the links on Steephill.tv are either geo-restricted or completely borked.

Carlton brooks no argument about Albertville!
They are correct by the way, the top 5km of the mollard are horrible. Terrible surface, narrow, twisting and under trees so always greasy. I had a mare last time I went down it... I felt better when I saw the chicken do the same a few weeks later"In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"

Mild in profile but rich in flavour, with a long heavy finish.0 -
I take it the last 500m of the Madeleine is pretty flat judging by those multiple sprints for the KOM?0
-
Think sky should ease a bit as no one in front group a worry about and let any domestiques up there burn themsleves out so they will be no use for next couple of stages0
