[trevim]

Ahah that's pure gold!

 

[manafana]

this break really does have chance break not going down that quickly as of yet

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Streaming HD video. Awesomeness.

Honestly, not sure WTF the peloton are doing. Cannondale look annoyed to be doing all the work.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Some of these guys may not be ready for the heat at this point.

Omega move up. Mancebo riding in 2nd position?

I don't see why, Sagan has a 100% chance of winning if they catch the break, so would be irrational for other teams to chase.

Silly commentator, rogers wasn't world champ in 2009, 2010, 2011

Dunno if that's true in a flat sprint.

Really hot day. Very bad sign for the western US. Very.

The US southwest/west is in bad shape. California has already had a bad wildfire and it's barely May.

Good grief, look at that salt on the jerseys.

Could you translate into Celsius. Because at 104, in my head, you are boiling.

Lets hope no horses on the rest of the stage. They would be licked silly.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Riders starting to crack.

 

[the sceptic]

these spectators are hillarious

40 celsius. Nasty.

 

[goggalor]

[maltiv]

Andy Schleck looks comfortable

He'll certainly win this race

 

[Moose McKnuckles]
