Unfortunately you can't have a GT without a fair few of those

Fucking hell love me some cobbles, what a race

The crash caused a hell of a selection

Seems to have some sort of mechanical, he is in with the cars

Well at least GVA won't have to 'hope' that Porte was behind him at the end of the race.

That is a kick in the nuts, wanted to see how he goes. He has gotta be one of the unluckiest riders out there.

Porte may be out by the looks of it

Shite a crash, Porte down

Haha

Cav trying to get in the break

Finally a stage wotlrth watching all of it. Mind you I had a lovely nap with the dogs yesterday during the stage.

I felt bad for Giroud, he huffed and puffed but a better, quicker striker might have had three tonight

That is the whole point of concussion it doesn't kick in straight away. That was the equivalent of a boxing uppercut.

A shame the commentators made light of the ball to that chap's chin. That would have definitely rattled the old noggin. Concussion risk.

Right I am putting a mark on both of you

You take that back!

It's twenty quid: stop the hankering and buy the thing! I'm gonna

Undertake with a close pass is a 4x combo score for dickishness

This. Cav always starts slow and Quickstep's train is ridiculous. He said he got boxed it. Never write off Cav.

Wasn't a commute but I rode the road I used to commute along and I been spoiled I forgot to the shear shitfuckery of the road, long and straight and reasonably wide so drivers feel ok overtaking you at speed and barely leaving the lane. It was a cluster fuck of gooch-thightening constant shit passing with the occasional driver making the effort to leave the lane. I moved further and further out to force less shit-passing but it was a sharp illustration of how the geography of a road influences driver behaviour

Ouch, a saddening read I thought. However if there are holes in the testing that don't hold up to legal scrutiny what can you actually do? I mean there are suggestions that Salbutamol go the way of caffeine.

I think a rider's popularity plays a lot into how history judges. Indurain remains high on people's shit list for being an early adopter of EPO and time trialling to his TdF wins, Contador and Pantani are celebrated for their swashbuckling style, like Merckx.

Sky and generally successful British riders, like the Americans before them, are seen an interlopers by a lot of traditional cycling fans, who only seem to like riders from traditional cycling countries, and riders from Southern Europe best of all.

Not necessarily for Salbutamol but I heard that 56% of AAFs are cleared, and by indication on similar premises as Froome has been. Of course we never heard about any of those because the investigation is done in secret while this one was leaked.

I just think it is very important not to define the possibilities and limits of human endeavour by what has gone before. I don't know if it can be called evolution but you shouldn't put a lid on what is humanly possible, and that limits can't be pushed past.

Dude just won 3 GTs in a row. If we are assuming he did it clean he is a proper monster. I'm comfortable with genetic freak.
