    Quigley and Backstedt just discussing it on Eurosport, presumably for cycling on the path, in which case how has it taken this long to confirm it, it seemed pretty obvious at the time, and obvious to the point you wonder what on earth Politt was thinking

    Interesting to see spray lube being applied surely that would have gotmover the rotor too

    Maybe a dork disk would be useful

    He looked like he was hanging just before riding on the pavement, I guess he was just looking for a bit of respite.

    Trentin should be DQF'd if the commies want to be seen to be consistent.....

    Before the adverts it appeared to be the case that Drucker had sat up and the bunch has hit a lull. Don't underestimate Jungels

    DQS are sponsored by Peugeot. Peugeot van appears in front of Jungels. Interesting tactic from Lefevre?
