  • Good to see this race return from the dead and with live coverage.
    Stellar cast it has too.
    Poels already in pole for the GC with the "Wall" to climb on Sunday.

    It's already started on Twitter. Digger et al banging on about Poels and Sky and weight.

    What a bunch of morons.

    Put them in your sig...cuts down on My Man subterfuge...
  • even with Vacance Soleil , he had that look. But Team Sky in 2009 had to know he would sign Poels for 2015 and they doped him since 2009....... :shock: :lol:

    (dons tinfoil hat...) Poels deliberately half-killed himself en route to Metz in 2013 so he could lose a few lbs illegally. Spleen, a bit of lung, a nad... Cav probably primed to kick him off in the bunch, the DB long game.

    Izaguirre had a motor in his bike.
    Apparently the wheel was spinning after he crashed.

    Wheels turning round being a give away that a rider is cheating.

    Damn it, I knew it! They're all bloody at it!

    Apart from Betancur. His wheels never look like they're moving.

    That wheel isn't even turning around. It's just the light reflecting off it as the camera moves past. The decals around the edge don't move.

    That's because the motor shut down and acted as a brake.

    I thought it was because sky riders are so juiced they have the motor running in reverse to make it look believable.

    Good ride by Dan. I wonder how well his season will go (barring falling off), now he's motivated and at a new team.

    Those teeth though, seriously. Only a mother could love that boy's face.

    Poor Dan. Once the Gods in charge of such things had finished with Nico's looks, they ran out of steam before moving onto Dan :cry:
