    Evans punctured at summit with no wheel.


    Takes 2 team mates to get a new wheel.

    Wiggo telling the others to wait. Good sportsmanship.

    Has someone been putting pins into their voodoo bikes?


    Hmmm.

    Tacks on the road?

    I expect that Wiggo put the hammer down, rode like a man possessed, if you win in the mountains and you win in the tt then not much else but to win the tour de france.. etc etc ;)

    Evans screwed by lack of team mates. Looks like there's been a lot of punctures, some tw@ts scattering tacks?
    Roland's not making any friends.
    Remember that you are an Englishman and thus have won first prize in the lottery of life.

    No-one waited for Rolland when he crashed, so that'll be why he's doing it.

    No wonder Roland was bullied at school

    I had one of them red bikes but I don't any more. Sad face.

    Isn't that different to a puncture were there's no car?

    Sorry disgruntled, I forgot it is strictly verboten to say anything remotely negative about Sky or a Brit on this forum.


    Lookes like Rogers was the one who actually said to slow down.

    Everyone is puncturing!

    That'll by why Wiggins wanted to slow it down then.

    Slow puncture innit.

    Since the cars were not allowed up the hill why did the teams not have soigneres with spare wheels at the top of the climb?

    They did similar on the Pave 2 years ago and on the steeper climbs of the giro last year.

    I was just asking where you were coming from? I'm not a fan boy by any means.

    Puncture for Wiggins
