Good impersonation of movistar by ineos there.

A thumbs up for Guillame Martin too.
10th yesterday, 4th today.
Bernal given the ST as the finishing group.

They did look very impressive. And they played the tactics quite well letting Ineos take it up and then still having numbers afterwards.gweeds said:I assume The Clinic is going mental about Jumbo? They’re making it look very very easy.

Who thinks jumbo are going to fade? Not me ."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

Kuss has one hell of a poker face.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

Froome aint going to the tour -nooo way'Do not compare your bike to others, for always there will be greater and lesser bikes'0

Thomas is still a bit off, but he's way off.josame said:Froome aint going to the tour -nooo way
Kwiatkowski did so much of the work.
I can see Carapaz being drafted in at this rate."Science is a tool for cheaters". An anonymous French PE teacher.0 -

Not fade, but they are ahead of the others. And the other are catching up. Most of their riders could train outside all summer and they supposedly did a ludicrously large training camp prior to the season.Twitter: @RichN950 -
that would be telling 'Do not compare your bike to others, for always there will be greater and lesser bikes'0

Rog on another level at the moment. Elephant in the room is 3rd week form I guess. Overwhelming favourite currently though0

The problem was that they were all looking fine, but then all blew within a couple of kms of each other.
Definitely think that Jumbo had tactically decided to attack as soon as Ineos reached the last man standing, (Sivakov) confidence is so high."Science is a tool for cheaters". An anonymous French PE teacher.0 -
I think the only concern would be he might be running a bit hot a bit early? If he's that far ahead of everyone else now. Potential Yates-esque collapse.robnewcastle said:Rog on another level at the moment. Elephant in the room is 3rd week form I guess. Overwhelming favourite currently though
Otherwise, it's hard to see anyone else coming close.0 -
Watching on catch up. Why is there a cooking show on Eurosport?
Oh, and very impressive from Roglic, and another great piece of mystery riding from Ineos.0 -
That’s exactly my thoughts. It’s like they’re either going to steamroll the tour or blow up spectacularly in the 3rd weekbobmcstuff said:

I was expecting a bit more from Bernal if I’m honest, he hasn’t looked hugely convinced but I guess he is building to top form too. My worry would be how he manages tight, tactical situations. Maybe is talent will get him out of sticky situations though.0

Here you go. The bus took a right bashing.

When Thomas and Wiggins Froome and ‘cough’ Armstrong all won the Dauphine l didn’t once hear ‘ooh but are they peaking too soon’. And this years Dauphine is much closer to the tour! (Odd logic)'Do not compare your bike to others, for always there will be greater and lesser bikes'0

He does have a history of doing it.josame said:When Thomas and Wiggins Froome and ‘cough’ Armstrong all won the Dauphine l didn’t once hear ‘ooh but are they peaking too soon’. And this years Dauphine is much closer to the tour! (Odd logic)
Even if he has peaked, he's so far ahead that the gap could be too big to close."Unfortunately these days a lot of people don’t understand the real quality of a bike" Ernesto Colnago1 -
Maybe - late to the sport, 5 GT’s (1 win and 1 4th) hard to tell.gsk82 said:
