2012 Tour de France: Stage 6: Épernay → Metz (207.5km)

[woodburn]

3:30 for Gesink. Another tour another crash.

 

[gthx_gthx_]

Gesink at 3 minutes , great tour indeed

 

[Cancellator]

One them crashed twice today.

+1, it was obvious Greipel was in pain. He gave up 10m before the finish. Awful day.
Don't get too excited Sagan fans.

Goss is not the rider from last season anymore.

 

[Ragerod]

Wow. Sagan was awesome and I was doubting his top speed. At this rate Cav isn't going to hold the stage wins record for very long.

 

[will10]

Was Nibali in the Brajkovic-Schleck group?

 

[the asian]

This really is a disaster for Gesnik. if he feels ok, he should target the Polka dots jersey.

The freacking tour de France has to stop making the first week so freacking easy, it only causes so that half of the freaking gc contenders are freaking out of contention after one freaking week

 

[ChewbaccaD]

Obviously they are working for Goss. You cant expect anything different, this is the best chance for them to get something out of the tour so why would they throw that away for a few minor GC riders to come back to the main group?

And they got 3rd. Karma is a *****. The happiest I was all stage was the point where Goss slipped his chain.

And Ryder, Frank, and Gesink are more than just "minor."

 

[El Pistolero]

Here comes Rabofail...that's what you get for putting all your eggs in one basket

Yeah, not like Liquigas. They only have one egg. Let's see what your reaction will be when it breaks.

 

[max_powers]

not even close

 

[the asian]

Sagan is the best cyclist ever.

are you high??

 

[glassmoon]

 

[Frosty]

Main group also had Roche, Velits, VDB, Tejay, Basso

 

[Red Rick]

They're better of making the parcours across a cliff, so that crashes aren't a surprise anymore

 

[Fetisoff]

Well, whoever caused that crash is certainly the ******bag of the tour

 

[Caruut]

I remember reading that OGRE said they would work for Cadel is the opportunity arose. Well, seems they've done that. Will cheer against this band of fools from now on.

 

[Machu Picchu]

+1, it was obvious Greipel was in pain. He gave up 10m before the finish. Awful day.
Don't get too excited Sagan fans.

Goss is not the rider from last season anymore.

3 wins in the first week, what's not to get excited about?

 

[Froome19]

+1, it was obvious Greipel was in pain. He gave up 10m before the finish. Awful day.

Since when did Goss show last year anymore speed than he has this year..?

 

[Pippo_San]

Yeah, not like Liquigas. They only have one egg. Let's see what your reaction will be when it breaks.

5th place at the Giro, already 3 stages at the Tour and Nibbles and Basso still in contention.
Predicting a fail is a LONG shot, impossibly long.

 

[The Chicken]

Am I the only one who thought Sagan only beat Greipel coz Greip is banged up? COZ THAT IS THE REASON.

 

[Shardi]

are you high??

Don't bother, he is one of those delusonal forum members who doesn't make sense most of the time.

 

[screaming fist]

Well, whoever caused that crash is certainly the ******bag of the tour

crashes happen, not necessarily caused by a single rider.

will be interesting how cadel vs. wiggo works out when all those climbers have nothing to lose anymore.

 

[Frosty]

We'll find out soon but how come EBH and Cav were 2 of the 3 Sky guys caught out? Were they all in a line again and just the back end of it got involved?

 

[Cancellator]

3 wins in the first week, what's not to get excited about?

Well you can be happy, but don't imagine he will win all flat sprints from now on.
