[Jungle Cycle]

Contador bike change...

 

[TourOfSardinia]

unlucky day or what?

(for Alberto)

 

[Arredondo]

Bala doesn't need to do anything himself really to win this Itzulia.

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Berto almost back

Re: Re:

Berto can't stay on his bike anymore

It's getting ridiculous now. If he wants to finish the TdF this year, he really needs to learn how to ride up near the front all day like Movistar and Sky do.

Yeah will be much saver with another team trying to be within the first 20 riders He's crashed quite a few times while near the front as well.

So he can't navigate anymore

Looks like he just navigated over a stray nail on the road. :Neutral:

Yes, its not bad luck. Riders such as Quintana and Valverde literally never crashes (or when they do, they don't let the whole world know).

What does this even mean lol, they crash secretly?

Quintana crashed out of the Vuelta while in the leader's jersey a few years ago.

Its supposed to mean he doesn't waste the opportunity to tell everyone when he is a bit below par due to a crash or whatever. We didn't even know Quintana crashed when he won at Covadonga!

Anyways, no need to get so defensive every time, its obviously his own fault for crashing this much, its not bad luck, that should be established.

Let's see if random teams chase for the stage win like in Paris Nice

It's also a way to draw attention when you don't have the legs

Bernard's bike

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Mas back on the front again. He's having quite the day!

 

[May0maniac]

If we had a proper, hard Donostia stage this would actually be a really good transitional stage.
