Re: Re:

Voeckler attacks from the peleton.

So it begins.

Voeckler et Quéméneur to destroy everyone.

Or more TV looking for a minute on TV before rejoining the peloton

What the *** is Kirby on about?

 

[Andro]

At least the scenery is beautiful.

Fixed that for you. The man is clearly under some sort of influence. Is he always like this?

Yes

He is on glue and should be finished he is an utter headcase

Casual cycling fans watching Eurosport will be expecting a Cav win. Kirby and Kelly seem convinced that he is a big favourite today.

 

[SeriousSam]

the usual argument why pure sprinters might be competitive is something like "they'll ride into the short hill with 65km/h!". but almost a km is just too long

You think that's bad, the Dutch commentators just suggested Robert Gesink as a possible winner here. Gesink has about the same shot at winning as bugs bunny

Its when they read out the questions from these guys. T'other day they had;

"How long do the riders stay in the feed zone"

Chapeau Teklehaimanot, really happy for him

Kirby has been worse then ever and it sadly looks as if Kelly finally have giving in to the uncontrollable mouth of the guy next to him. He just roll along in order of survival.

 

[Vroome.exe]

Looks like etixx for stybar today, that would be good decision.

 

[DBotero]

Valverde might give it a go after all

That's nothing extraordinary to be fair. Anyday in his heydays he'd be a good shout, Cavendish on the other hand...

Looking forward to Cav going to the front just before the climb as part of the Etixx leadout and Kirby shouting that he is going for the win.

LOL, thanks for reminding me why I put up with Kirby.

Phil kept calling Uran Roberto the other day

 

[Brullnux]

So much for the crosswinds and echelons

 

[SeriousSam]

What's great about Phil and Paul are their voices. So distinctive. Irrevocably linked with the TdF.

Must be awful for Kelly. I'm listening to Phil and Paul today. Total nonsense of course but for some reason I don't find it anywhere near as annoying - it's like listening to grandparents approaching senility and I just keep thinking "Aww bless em"
