All calm again, I wonder if that was a bit of a test run for later in the day.0

Hatch and Lloyd beginning to sound more and more pessimistic.

Was my PTP hope.

Going to bluff them selves out of this if they don't get on with 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.

Random question which I've never thought about before
When they say "there's 1700m of climbing on today's stage", how is this calculated?
Is it every metre of vertical gain, or does it have to be over a certain percentage (say 0.5%) to qualify as "climbing"?0 -
Cort beginning to think 3 days in a row ambitious. I'm sure he's blowing when Perez starts putting it down0

I would suspect it is more accurately described as "height gain" and that "climbing" is a commentator's poetic shorthand...We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

one more point and Magnus will be wearing the polka dots to the top of Planche des Belles Filles, so I expect Perez will Magnus tow him to the next hill top.
As David Millar pointed out yesterday the moustache plus the EF kit plus the polka dot jersey is a winning combination, in a bit of a daft way. It'll be a shame when he gives up the jersey.0 -
If anyone is feeling generous, can one of you say when it's worth turning it on?

RIGHT?!?!?0 -
I assume it will be everything so if it was a 160km stage with half going up at 1% and half going down at 1% you'd have 800m. However, by that measure 1700m on today's 'lumpy' stage feels a bit low.takethehighroad said:Random question which I've never thought about before

If you're bored you can have half an eye on the new portal to the underworld about to open up under Geneva...

Why can't they crack on and create abundant cheap electricity? That would stop a lot of World silliness. Also, I bet Cav (national champ) could beat that particle to the finish.ddraver said:If you're bored you can have half an eye on the new portal to the underworld about to open up under Geneva...

If two Cav's collided a complete new Universe would be created.0
