Tour de France

[Spikey]

Froome and Wiggins have really fought back against nibs.

 

[PhoenixFire]

Evans is losing loads of time. froome is great, they've dropped schleck. they're gonna catch nibs too i reckon.

 

[Spikey]

hahahah what the hell froome

 

[PhoenixFire]

Froome is into 2nd. Wiggo been dropped, i reckon cos froome has kicked so much. dunno whether hes gonna wait for him now.

 

[PhoenixFire]

Froome is such a monster lol.

 

[PhoenixFire]

Funny how the team mates are both looking better than wiggo and evans.

 

[Spikey]

so i guess evans is out of the two horse race. froome v wiggins.

 

[Pothas]

Froome is ridiculous.

 

[PhoenixFire]

You get the feeling that froome could have caught rolland and won the stage if he had wanted to.

still a great ride by rolland. and pinot as well.

 

[Spikey]

So anyway, Evans is gone. Let's go Nibs!

 

[Pothas]

Nibali and Wiggins making friends at the end there, how lovely.

Anyway Rolland making me a bit of money.

Team Sky were superb yesterday but iw would be a shame is Froome was never again in a position to win the Tour - bar a puncture and team orders, he's be within touching distance of Wiggins and probably the favourite going into the Pyrenees

Problem for him and others is that it's rumoured the course will be much tougher next year and they will also have to contend with the returning Schleck and Contador

N Pickup reminding us of the last time a team won 3 stages in a row.

That sums up just how interesting today's race has been - that I've been driven to trawling through every single stage winner for the last twenty years to answer a trivia question that nobody else in the world could be bothered to find the answer to.

Glad you were listening carefully.

I think I was daydreaming, I just heard the name haha.

Who's ****ing great idea was it to stick 2 pretty decent sized mountains at the beggining of a stage and then have a flat run in? Shocker.

 

[Spikey]

It might have been matt goss'. he's clearly an idiot

[Spikey]
