2014 TDF Stage 19: Maubourguet Pays du Val d'Adour - Bergerac 208.5km

[Arnout]

Sagan should've followed Ramunas on the last hill and then sat up

Yeah, he was on the front on the climb, but I'm sure his DS was adamant about not attacking prematurely before the stage.

Slagter is in tears after the finish because of the win

 

[Pricey_sky]

Navardauskas favourite on Betfair now but I don't agree. Wish I had an account now.

I reckon Betfair wish you had an account too!

 

[Carols]

Very Happy that Garmin managed a stage. Really Nice Ride Navardauskas !

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Beautiful win for Ramunas and Garmin.

Hard not to be a fan of him in these situations.

Hopefully none of the top GC guys are hurt.

 

[Jerkovin]

Really glad Navardauskas won that in the end. Great ride and loved how he attacked the one climb.

Pretty amazing image of Sagan after he crashed. While everyone was scrambling to get their bikes, he just stood in the middle of the picture with his hands on hips, completely gutted.

Difficult to call it a bad tour for him, but so many near misses must be so frustrating.

Amazing. Ramunus aka Honey Badger was my replacement. Job well done. Legend.

taking the ****?

He made genuine enough sounding comments about RN on tv after the Harrogate stage. "If I had to miss out, there is no-one I would have preferred to see in the team" or words to that effect.

Sagan should've followed Ramunas on the last hill and then sat up

Yes he should. I am quite disapointed. He looks quite lost in the end.

I would love to know how many of those decisions he made were his ones or given from car.

 

[roundabout]

Was that Konig on the floor for a long time?

Yes. Was also holding his collarbone.

 

[pastronef]

you shaking?

yes, I am sweating. Ramunas you beauty!

 

[SKSemtex]

Well deserved win. I just love to see winning like this. I am glad for Garmin.

 

[T-Nielsen]

Yes. Was also holding his collarbone.

His elbow I think.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Crash was at -2.9km
convenient
it wasn't -3.1km.

[Jerkovin]

Yes he should. I am quite disapointed. He looks quite lost in the end.

He should have, but I bet he was thinking about Van Avermaet from stage 7.

congratulations to Bye Bye Bicycle, classicomano, maxmartin, sultanofhyd, WildspokeJoe, wise 5!

Thank you

 

[Jerkovin]

Yeah, I think most of them voted after he actually won.

 

[Netserk]

He should have, but I bet he was thinking about Van Avermaet from stage 7.

Where he did the right thing until he took pulls and went for it. If he had sat up, he would probably have won that stage.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Yeah, I think most of them voted after he actually won.

Purely in the interests of investigation, I just tested that and yes, I'm on the list now as well. Polls need a closing time.

But well done to whoever posted the poll for offering it as an option.
