Re:

Froomey should grab hold of the motorbike for old time's sake, not yell at it.

ROTFL!

I dislike the guy but don't want to see him in trouble because of a crash Much better to see him dropped fair and square.........

Re:

De Cauwer is lost today.

We're in Italy,
No we're in France,
No we're in Spain ofcourse

Froome was speaking Italian. He said:

We're not in Italy, we're in France euhh Spain euhh shite

Re:

And Kirby still promoting Atapuma. On stage 1 he said Atapuma was "many people"'s "dark horse for the overall"

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Froome should trust his stem - no panic necessary - the numbers will tell him what to do.
That's racing /not.

Re: Re:

What did Froom say there

Don't know, but something not very nice

porco dio = pig god
meaning: god damn?!

Froome is obviously a fan of The Hog's posts here on the forum.

Re:

He said "Porco Dio". Didn't realise he speaks Italian. It's not a very nice expression!

I associate it with this.

 

[PremierAndrew]

I'm just glad there's tv coverage of this. Vuelta delivering again

He must have some money on him today and for the overall. Any time Kirby has a bet on someone, we hear about them all stage, regardless of how the rider is getting on.

I think Froome will catch the peloton but loose contact on Gallina...or he returns to termo nuclear mode and wins the stage
edit: and I think much will depend on the question if it will start raining

1. Promoting Colombians
2. Betting
Now if Kirby just starts running down "lady cycling" and referring to Robert Gesnik, we'll know his forum username

 

[Stilletto]

ahhh Astana

 

[Flamin]

Just 35 riders in the peloton. Astana train on the front.

 

[Red Rick]

Lol, according to martinelli, the original Astana plan for this stage was to have start the stage really hard and have both Nibali and Aru attack early on

Dammit Nibali, Y U got disqualified

 

[sir fly]

Froome has stolen the early show from Dumoulin.

Re:

Well he lived in Italy. Don't think he speaks fluent Italian, or at least Ive heard him say he struggled with it while living there, but anyone who has spent 2 minutes with an Italian person knows Porco Dio and Dio Cane.

 

[Arredondo]

So Quintana, Purito, Aru, Bala, Dumoulin are in the first group.

And Majka too. All the rest i don't know atm.

 

[SafeBet]

Froome gaining some italian fans with just a couple of words

Re: 2015 Vuelta Stage 11: Andorra la Vella>Cortals d'Encamp

Did I see that correctly? 6 out of 7 astana riders are in the front group?
How did Tinkoff call this astana team again?

 

[glassmoon]

Why are they interupting the commercials with this cycling thing?

he's actually pretty fluent. At least in the few italian interviews I saw of him

 

[PremierAndrew]

Sky train close to astana train now

Re:

Not exactly in the way he wanted I imagine

Froome not panicking and coming back slowly. His legs will appreciate in about 3hrs ...
