    Can't seem to see the results for the other jerseys there, did Dowsett pick up plenty of the intermediate sprints? I only saw it from the last one he went for and I can't find a list of who has what jersey anywhere

    Ethics, morals, responsibility, role models for kids and what have you.. Let's leave this cheesy s'hit to the American basketball players. They are as interesting and inspiring as a cup of coffee, without coffee.

    You are from Denmark? Would explain a few things about your views on morality etc. Questionable over there in those set of countries over there.

    If you dont think it matters then you should have a read of some studies.

    You make it sound like it shows great character...
    Maybe you should try watching wrestling or cage fighting...
    And how about we just let person A do X if that is what they want to do...


    Err.... Way to make a sweeping generalisation there Frenchie. And then use it to attack someone. Check your morality, it's seriously flawed if you think that's ok. And yes, I live in Copenhagen. Is there any perceived national characteristic flaw you'd like me to take personal responsibility for?

    Pig husbandry

    To paraphrase a line from Yashar by Cabaret Voltaire (sampled from the Outer Limits episode "Demon with a Glass Hand"): "There's 25 millions pigs out there. Where are they hiding ?".

    I spent two weeks travelling around Denmark and didn't see a single pig so I guess they're all crammed into sheds somewhere. How many have you got in your shed then ?

    If Kittel had smashed his bike to bits in the style of Mr bean or comedy legend Les Dennis, we would all be laughing about this like a bunch of massive happy horses.

    Stealing photos, running them through instagram and claiming them as your own is morally fine btw...

    Why did the 1st rider (in yellow) reach out as if to punch him - he must have been doing/threatening to do something ?Had he already stuck a leg out although when that 1st rider reaches him the bunch is arrow shaped so the riders wouldn't have been so close to him ?

    The rider looks like he's waving him back rather than going to punch him..

    The 1st rider reached out long before they reached leg guy though - others in the crowd threatening too?

    I guess if you want to signal someone to move out the way you don't do it with 1m to go, you do it a little while before which is what the first rider did.

    Erm, avoiding the questions whether or not the Danes are morally defunct, whether anyone in the financial services sector can take the moral high ground and copyright challenges:

    Didn't Kittel chuck his bike because he went over a pothole and his handlebar broke? Which in turn caused him to hit the ground at about 30mph? I'd be a tad cross if that happened to me. I don't think it is the end of the world though...

    I enjoy nice bikes. Is it ok if I steal one? Why would you want to stop me enjoying great bikes?

    Correct, the only people who'd care are so far up their own arris they can no longer enjoy anything ever...
