He’s had a great tour- would love to see him nab a stage win.
It would have hurt like! Dumoulin and Uran in particular looked absolutely knackered at the end. Roglic didn't even break a sweat.That last couple of hundred metres just looked absolutely sickening, I felt knackered just watching it.
How do they not lash out at the crowd.
yeah he did... the jumbo fanboi running alongside them for ages too was looking to get a smack anarl...I think Pogačar did as one idiot nearly knocked him off his bike.
Was that the one in the red ballet outfit, bit on the small side ?yeah he did... the jumbo fanboi running alongside them for ages too was looking to get a smack anarl...
I think he was talking about the bloke in the Jumbo Visma jersey running alongside the riders on the climbs.Was that the one in the red ballet outfit, bit on the small side ?
Yeah him... came on the road and squeezed between roglic & the km to go pole, before vaulting a Russian fan who was kneeling down - was picturing an Armstrong type scenario when he toppled straight into his obvious idol...I think he was talking about the bloke in the Jumbo Visma jersey running alongside the riders on the climbs.
Wout Van Aert says that people who ask questions about Jumbo Visma and doping show a lack of respect. Its not like the sport has a reputation or anything....
He was sprinting up the climbs with most of Jumbo Visma on his wheel today as well, in a style very reminiscent of Team Discovery Channel if the truth be told...Well if your shredding top class climbers like he was the other day for 6/7k it does raise the odd question or two.

Imagine being disrespectful and questioning them...Jumbo does seem a bit strange to me. Even when Team Sky had their train on the mountains, they usually got Froome to a point and then he would be by himself to then follow attacks or attack himself. Rarely if ever did he cross the line with 2 or 3 team mates in close proximity on a mountain. Froome always had days where you could clearly see he was struggling despite all of the protection. Yet Roglic has looked effortless every day despite this been an extremely difficult tour. They haven't even had quiet times at the beginning of the stages due to the battles for green jersey points.
Even on the ITV commentary yesterday when Sepp Kuss was approaching the line on that massive ramp, they said he looked like he had just been on a Sunday ride out with Porte visible in the back ground showing pain all over his face.
Commentators said today is an easy stage.
Yes after riding up mountains for 18 days I imagine it’s like a gentle toddle along Seaburn. They then shows the graphic and it seemed to go on forever.
Anyone know how long today’s stage is?
Its 200km and they are going over the tourmalet so it is a difficult stage. If sagan was on prime form I would say that this stage is made for him.Commentators said today is an easy stage.

Thanks lads great infoIts 200km and they are going over the tourmalet so it is a difficult stage. If sagan was on prime form I would say that this stage is made for him.
It could be a good one for a classics specialist so allaphillipe or Van Avermaet could also be in with a shot if their legs are good. There might be a chance of a breakaway sticking today - it will be a good race.
Shane I am at work so I will have to catch the highlights.
