Comments

Great cover by Chaves before Tom D lifts his huge bulk and moves it quickly up a mountain.Contador is the Greatest0
-
Chavez recovers, Valv struggling and Aru attacks. Proper racing here.0
-
Pure climber Aru tries a little move. Diesel Froome just going at whatever pace he wants.
The huge Dutchman now gives it some dancing legs again.Contador is the Greatest0 -
Tom D again, gets a gap and others sit up. Chaves eventually chases with Roche. Chasers back together, Tom D with 5 seconds.0
-
Tom D somehow has 10 secs on the rest with 1.5km.
And Froome with a km to go engages his stupid turbo. So not a natural climber.Contador is the Greatest0 -
This looks painful!Correlation is not causation.0

Froome's nitro tanks were hardly full. He gives up after 50m.Contador is the Greatest0

Reserve tank engaged. He goes again.
Majka currently chasing Tom D.Contador is the Greatest0 -
Makkah chasing and looking good. Chaves bumped J Rod and almost crashed. Froome riding well and dropping Roche. Still Tom D just, 600m to go Chaves dropped.0

Froome is phenomenal really. :shock:
He's looked cooked about three times on this climb.Correlation is not causation.0 -

Froome drags up J rod and Majka. J Rod attacks and Froome goes over him. Tom D coming back and beats Froome. Great stage. Tom D, Froome, J Rod, Aru. Chaves loses about a minute.Tom D into red0

F in YES have that you scrawny bore. HAHAHAHAH froome can't cope with two GTs. awesome ride by TOM0
-
Well well well, fireworks to rival the ones in Bilbao this week.
Amazingly Froome outsprints climbing sprinter Joaquim Rodriguez.
Even more amazingly the 85kg Dutchman comes past both of them to claim victory.
Suspending disbelief on how he can do it, he gave that some real heart, rode from the front and thoroughly deserved the win and to rejain the jersey.Contador is the Greatest0 -
Well that was a great final climb. Attack and counter attack all the way up. Tom D riding it as a 2 week race and therefore going deeper maybe?0
-
Great stuff. Real brave ride from Dublin, worthy of the stage and the jersey.It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.0

I'm a bit worried that Flecha and Ashley might fall off the edge here. :shock:Correlation is not causation.0

Really ?? Not sure what race you were watching. Not the one broadcast, certainly0 -
How many times did Tom D attack on that climb? Fantastic stuff.
Great stuff by Froome. By the look of this interview he'll be bald by the time his kid is born!0 -

You must be giving Tom all that weight you keep taking off Porte. His official stats say 71kg. I'm 85kg, he's nowhere near my size!0 -

I'm surprised that he managed it on that type of climb as well, with the changes in pitch etc, but where did you get 85kg from? Procyclingstats says 69 and Giant Alpecin state 71kg.0 -

Hope there's not a big gust of wind :?It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.0 -
Thank goodness Tom Dumoulin isn't a Sky rider.
That's all I can say. "Science is a tool for cheaters". An anonymous French PE teacher.0 -
85kg? He's not Theo Bos. Dumoulin's around 70kg.Even more amazingly the 85kg Dutchman comes past both of them to claim victory.Twitter: @RichN950
