2016 TdF, Stage 10: Escaldes-Engordany → Revel (197km)

[mr. tibbs]

And now EBH is having counting problems. Doesn't like that Matthews has two teammates to take his pulls.

 

[Andro]

Not sure why Sagan is still leading so much. He could just let Orica do the work until the climb.

 

[SKSemtex]

hagen and matthews stopped changing

 

[sir fly]

Action any moment.
They don't need to cooperate any more.

 

[rick james]

Peloton out for a coffee ride...

 

[doperhopper]

look at the peloton, almost stopped once all hopes gone

 

[SKSemtex]

Peter must feel very strong

 

[KGB]

Sagan works for Matthews.He never learn.

 

[winkybiker]

What's the medical term for Matthews' condition? You know, the term for a psychological fear of open road in front.

 

[rick james]

what bike is Sagan on? it looks a beast

 

[johnymax]

Sagan is just having fun. Doing twice as much work than everybody else.

 

[happytramp]

Wow... bunch going at 24kph.

 

[SKSemtex]

Nibali must be pretty pissed off

 

[tomorrow]

Sagan can't just be far from front, cause they would attack him, we'll see, if he decides to attack them in the climb

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Sagan will obviously attack on the climb.

You mean "basic team tactics" when a team manages to get three riders in a seven-man break?

 

[SKSemtex]

I would love to see what Oleg would do if Sagan wins two more stages.

 

[Punkan]

This will be easy for Sagan.

 

[doperhopper]

Sagan already regretting his efforts on Envalira, I'm afraid it cost him a lot, together with all the pulling

 

[carton]

Orica should be attacking with Durbo and Impey on the flat, methinks. This is just setting up an all out effort on the climb, and I wouldn't fancy anyone on Orica for that. I may be wrong.

It's not just this stage. He and Gerro (is he even in this race?) are among the most overrated riders in the peloton.

 

[Praying Mantis]

Samuel Dumoulin just sitting on wheels... He's not been too shabby this year.

I thought the same thing. The only thing dangerous about that is if Durbridge gets away with another rider.

Do you think you're the only one that has watched cycling in the past years? However, you let your dislike blind you in this case, as these tactics were totally valid in these circumstances. Get over yourself.
