2013 Tour de France, Stage 12: Fougéres - Tours 218 Km

[murali]

sagan blocked for the intermediate sprint, and he was really ****ed off

 

[spalco]

What the hell was the Vacan guy doing? If he's pushing Sagan into the boundaries, why doesn't he at least take the points? Looked like Sagan rolled over in third place anyway.

 

[Kopuliak]

another id**t there.

 

[The Principal Sheep]

Cav up for it, probably the most keen he's been at an intermediate this tour, VCD rider (Boeckmans?) half heartedly went for some points then gave up but not before blocking Sagan completely.

Cavendish is now forced to offer outside contracts to take out other riders

Nice hay bale display.... even though they got an E backwards.

 

[Roderick]

This is getting really, really embarassing for Sicard. Time to resign, Romain!!

 

[murali]

yes boeckmans.

pinned poor sagan between himself and the barriers.

Sagan has already given him the best expletives i think.

that was a bit harsh.

 

[murali]

there is going to be a a few nasty curves in another 6-8 km. kinda of hoping for the crash now itself.

 

[Arnout]

Considering the race ends in Tours, who's gonna pull a Virenque on the peloton? I'm predicting an Euskadi surprise. Nieve!

That would be epic, Nieve winning a flat stage solo

 

[dgodave]

Marvelous chateaux. They should talk about it instead of boring bike race stuff.

 

[manafana]

right im awake now, watch the train come into town.

 

[SafeBet]

Is it true that Gallopin said Andy's goal for the tour is still a top5? Just heard it on the Italian broadcast.

 

[dgodave]

Highly geometrical French gardens. Dont like them. They feel too controlled.

 

[spalco]

OPQS ****ing up again, going into the lead way too early imo.

 

[murali]

the GC teams are jostling for position. where is my crash?

 

[uconnryan]

If only it was Vino in Flecha's position right now.

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Am I the only one who find it tasteless to be hoping for a crash?

 

[murali]

is flecha fighting for the super combativity award?

 

[murali]

if vino was around, he would have taken this stage

No he wouldn't have, but this thread would be 15 pages longer.

not exactly. but ASO have built this course for a crash, just like stage 1.

15 pages??? that talks a lot abt the kind of rider he was.

No, that says a lot about the members of this forum
