    2014 Tour de France, Stage 5: Ypres – Arenberg Porte du Hainaut: 156km

    So Sky lobbying to remove more sectors because of fear of crashes and Froome crashes on the tarmac. Couldn't make it up lol.

    Yep, that happens a lot in cycling in case you didn't notice.

    Respect for Sep has increased tenfold.

    Yup. And let's neutralise climbs that are too hard for the majority(!)

    There hasn't been a wet Paris-Roubaix since 2002. This is going to be a big shock for even the regulars.

    What should be done about idiotic spectators?

    I'm pretty certain there will be people trying to take running selfies during the mountain stages. Arguably more dangerous as their attention is on their phone.

    Make that photo black and white and I wouldn't know what decade that was taken.

    Teams & Riders Froome Talk Only

    I reckon he'll give us another similar TT peformance and then go defensive in the mountains. Cover any accelerations or threats. Look 'clean' and stay with others in the top 10. And then we'll be told how real and normal he is.

    Teams & Riders Froome Talk Only

    I found Froome's acceleration after Porter blew up everyone Popovych-style frightening. What is it? The higher pain threshold so he can ride a higher cadence? Those freakish twitch muscles he has? The bigger heart?

    Wiggo didn't thank Geert. Disappointing.

    JV talks, sort of

    Just one for the mods, but is there any need for this thread, when we already have a thread where JV comes and goes?
