    Anyone able to get a picture of Grabsch Tt'ing today?

    Interested to know how big a gear he'll be pushing today. It'll prob be big enough to leave a gravel trail in the ground after him!

    72x9 at a cadence of 40rpm
    That's over 210 gear inches. I reckon I'd have trouble turning that at all!

    How many more times is that old fool porter going to mix up froome & wiggins :roll: His "Carer" boardman has to keep him right.

    no doubt it will be someone else's fault - he is never happier than winging about why he has flopped because of somebody else - typical

    What I was saying earlier – good talker but needs to up his spotting skills.
