Sad if true, one thing to suspect him but another to treat him like that without any evidence.

 

[puffin]

Do any of the sky riders look in any difficulty?

[tomorrow]

[The Principal Sheep]

Shame Sagan not in it, again no Astana rider, they feeling ok today?

 

[Netserk]

Jeannesson chasing the break.

 

[Ferminal]

On your bikes, Cannondale.

'Tis a terrible but completely expected/understandable response given how his performances are stacking up against the good ol' bad days.

 

[The Hitch]

Might saxo be bluffing their way to a stage win attempt?

 

[Netserk]

Jeannesson has bridged to the break.

 

[Kazistuta]

Even though I expected Voeckler to be part of todays break, I don't need to see three hours of intense grimacing.............

I'm gonna go find somewhere to cheer for Pistorius now then.

 

[Carols]

Maybe Roche for the stage, and working on securing Team title?

 

[xrayvision]

Might saxo be bluffing their way to a stage win attempt?

Could be, but I doubt it, they have a plan with this, sending out 3 guys is not for a stage win but for tactical purposes.

 

[Netserk]

Judged by the French flags, there is a minor headwind atm.

 

[The Principal Sheep]

stream if anyone needs it.

Voeckler's break stages are usually fun to watch though ( aside from the faces )

 

[cocteau_ireland]

Eurosport doing their glossary of the Tour but "full ***" isn't in there yet.

Love it!!

 

[spalco]

Great timing, tv producers, now two hours of boredom until there's some new action.
