2014 Tour De France stage Stage 2: York – Sheffield: 201km

Ooh, my rank outsider tip for today Cyril Gautier is in there with Tommy V

Could be a smart Tony Martin move though. Not too shabby on climbs and if he has just a small gap over the top of Jenkin Road he can easily TT his way to the stage win on that last 5km.

He ca also light a cigar if he wants.

My favorite kind of reference. obscure

It's good that he's not too much of a star to work for teammates, unlike some

Dan Martin was given the same job during Tirreno-Adriatico. He took it with good humour.

Kristoff still towards the front of the peloton, he's probably the best sprinter left in the bunch, along with Sagan.

I understand that you are a Sky-tard but that is something a five year could come up with.

Read my post and then come back with some evidence of me being a "Sky-tard".

Idiot.

Not sure I would call it obscure. Certainly not on a cycling forum.

It's comments like this that put people off this forum. I don't see how he said anything remotely controversial there?

Let's enjoy the cycling and not insult eachother. It's building up to be a fantastic stage.

You'd be amazed.

Getting to the business end of the stage now. Hoping to see some strong counter attacking now.

Am going to go with John Degenkolb (I think he is riding?).

He should still be there, I didn't see him in the Kittel group with a few of the other Giant riders.

 

[Afrank]

Catch is made. Now hope for some attacks.

When they come to his the steep hill 4k to go it will be single file up it. The crowd will ruin what should be a great course.

 

[manafana]

pace has been pretty high from what I have seen not going be easy rodriguez won't be right till we hit the alpes by the looks bound be some other top 10 guys failing today.

someone posted a few pictures earlier in the thread that showed barriers for a good portion of the climb

No they won't. Jenkin Road is barriered.

I had a feeling this might happen, of someone can do a flyer off the front with a couple of teammates as blockers behind him it's game over!

Edit: just read it's had barriers up it.

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Majka gone. Now Garmin riding for Talansky or Slagter? Or both

 

[Afrank]

Have they done away with that yellow helmets for leading team thing? Noticed a Sky rider with yellow numbers.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Half the Tinkoff guys dropped.
