So why have they not changed the stage result, as in Froome and Porte move up to 11th & 12th behind De Gent...

Fan crashed, moto had to stop abruptly. Took out Porte, Froome and Mollema. Porte and Froome bikes got smashed, but then Froome didn't have bike for ages and had to run. All in all, scandal
Incredible. They better give Froome s.t. as Mollema.

I can't find it in the UCI rulebook just to be absolutely clear on this issue. I wonder if someone else can.
bigcog said:kenk09 said:bigcog said:Who ? Froome ? So he's to blame for morons in the crowds, a motorcyclist who isn't up to the job and the ASO who couldn't get high in a crack cocaine lab ? Nice one.
Was going for sarcasm. Gentle mocking of those who have decided to use this incident (3 riders and a motorbike colliding) to dust off and post all their Froome/Sky bile again.
Too subtle for me :redface: and this forum
Then it would be fine, probably.PeterB said:This is what I found:TMP402 said:Gigs_98 said:Can anyone who knows it tell me if it's forbidden to run without a bike?
