Nibali: you not only got the rules wrong, but also the facts. Caleb Ewan was at the back when it happened. He did not cause the crash.“New York has the haircuts, London has the trousers, but Belfast has the reason!0 -

Indeed. And Ewan's own response:

Indeed, he's getting a pretty long charge sheet. For someone who seems so rational and sensible when he's speaking, it seems he talks a surprising load of shyte.0 -
It's never his fault is it. Tool.Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.0

Interesting little read from Phil Gaimon
But the standout comment of relevance to Nibs, in this thread's case, as well as racing in general is:Here’s the thing about rules: if you play by someone else’s, you lose every time. If you don’t mind playing by someone else’s rules, you’re hereby invited to my place for high-stakes poker, and you’ll leave broke.0 -
We here wonder if Nibs got the Strava seg for that stretch of road ?"The Prince of Wales is now the King of France" - Calton Kirby0

He certainly enjoys throwing about accusations about other riders doesn't he and of course he never puts a foot wrong. I used to quite like him but I'm starting to lose a degree of respect for the way he carries on.0 -
Just a note on holding cars. I remember and was amazed how Peraud had a massive crash in this year's Tour and then caught a racing peleton about 60km from the finish by himself and when he was all beaten up. I have sympathy as he was in a bad way but cant see how he shut down a 2 minutes plus gap on his tod? A Frenchman in a French race maybe??

Yeah. Rebalancing an economy from an investment & export led economy to a consumption driven economy was never going to be easy, especially when you still regularly throw people in prison for voicing opinions.0 -

“The crash was Caleb Ewan’s fault,” Nibali said. “He made a crazy, bad move. Go and watch that clip too, and you’ll understand why riders got injured. But he’ll stay in the race. I was looking for him while I was waiting for my replacement bike, but fortunately for him he had already set off again. I had something to say to him.”
Ewan says he's talking crap....
“I was at the back of the bunch. All I saw were the riders crashing in front of me and I don’t know what happened at the front or who it was who caused the crash,”
“I’m not mad at him but I think it’s not professional from him, a guy who’s done a lot in the sport"0 -

Love it when Rick gives us a wink. It's further complicated by the likely fatal consequences from any change in regime. Given they've been at this civilisation game a few thousand years longer than 'us', with no Sky God baggage, it should be a piece of cake....a rare 100% loyal Pro Race poster.

Polemica!
@cirogazzetta
Vincenzo Nibali not allowed to compete from @UCI_cycling till the end of @lavuelta (13 september). More on @Gazzetta_it

Basically, the UCI enforcing their reg. that states that if a rider gets booted off a race, they cant start another race till after the finish of the original one.0 -

Not sure if it's been covered.
On the Cycling Podcast Kelly was asked about the sticky bottle incident and said the other riders in the group weren't a bit happy and were shouting all sorts of abuse at Nibali when he took off.“New York has the haircuts, London has the trousers, but Belfast has the reason!0
