    Why do people with no upper bodies bother throwing punches? :D

    At least brambilla knew that an elbow would be more effective.

    Uran in a world of hurt right now. Think the moto cam could leave him alone now.

    Yup... Brilliant! Otherwise has been quite a boring stage
  • He was molested, to be fair.

    If Sean Kelly really loved cycling he would show Carlton how a true hard man punches.

    Break 1.17. Kennaugh's jersey leading the choo-choo.

    Pace can't be that high. Froome's still at the front.

    Also Di Marchi lead up to 1.30 (maybe a downhill in there)

    Warren Barguil (Giant-Shimano) is rarely less than forthright in his opinions and the Frenchman expects Rodriguez and Valverde to lay down the gauntlet to Contador and Froome on the road to La Farrapona. “Today, I think Purito and Valverde will try to bury Contador and Froome," Barguil said at the start. "I like Froome as a person but I don’t like the way he rides, always watching his SRM.”
    Tsk tsk, such ignorance. Someone inform Mr Barguil that Froome is of course watching his beloved stem, the location of the SRM is a mere coincidence!

    At one point yesterday when Froome was chugging his way back up to the 3 Amigos I thought he was going to ride off the edge of the mountain. He seemed blissfully unaware how close he was to the near vertical drop and that his line was pointing straight towards it!

    I think Dan Martin is getting ready to attack too early again.
