Excellent stage.
Be interesting if any one attacks from far out tomorrow, there is no way they can leave it until Saturday.0 -
this is as exciting as the Giro was pants0

ineos are in a good position. alaphillpe is bleeding time and they inherit by default.
pinot has to do damage tomorrow"If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way. What we're witnessing here is the world's most high profile mid-life crisis" Afx237vi Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:43 pm0 -

If I could open a can of worms, if JA does manage to do this, is there an argument that disc brakes are what helped him do it?
We know he went outstandingly in the TT on a technical course, with disc brakes.....
He's just ridden back to his rivals on the descent... with disc brakes.
Confident descending has certainly helped him maintain his position and gain time.
Discuss. I think it's been a factor (albeit a small one!)0 -
hmmmm so two short brutal mountain stages. I reckon Bernal for the win over all.
I think JA is at the end of his powers, otherwise Id say he could do well in both those stages. Good luck to him!0 -
Bernal.....The Fifth Columnist.0
-
what would you do as Jumbo?
movistar do that again on saturday.
pinot attacks at Tignes and Val Thorens if he has it."If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way. What we're witnessing here is the world's most high profile mid-life crisis" Afx237vi Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:43 pm0 -

He got dropped using discs he got back on with discs on. Youre right theyre heavy, ruin the feel of a bike and dont add anything0
