75th Tour de Romandie (2.UWT) // 27th of April - 2nd of May 2021

[DenisMenchov]

He should've just pushed the bike. Dropped at least 10 seconds there

 

[Broccolidwarf]

He lost grip of the handlebar with the right hand.

 

[Red Rick]

They really should have neutralized the ascent instead o the descent

 

[sir fly]

Strong ride by Woods, but what a share of misfortune for G...
Weather makes the difference as seen yesterday as well.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

No idea why Thomas didn't complete his transformation into Froome by running the final bit.

 

[KZD]

Thomas crashes so much...

Still, he looks like Ineos best bet for the Tour but behind the two Slovenians.

Good win from Woods.

 

[SafeBet]

Between the fake neutralization, the horrible TV production, the GPS giving random gaps all the time and the stupid Thomas crash on the line this was easily one of the worst broadcasted WT stages ever.

Thankfully we also had a few heros racing it. Chapeau to all the riders.

Thymen takes the touth tersey

 

[70kmph]

Oh dear what was that

 

[saganftw]

uci needs to ban holding the bars like that, clearly its very dangerous

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Haha, what the hell? Vintage Thomas.

Not sure you can call it misfortune.

In this instance, it looks like he lost his grip.

Riding error.

 

[red_flanders]

Oh dear what was that

Operator error, unfortunately.

 

[Volderke]

G was practising his winning gesture, taking his right hand of the bars.
I would have run the last 30 meters, considering the massive gear that G was grinding.

 

[Salvarani]

It was a pretty good race all things considered.

 

[Savant12]

Thomas needs to practice holding the bars properly before the Tour.

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Bobbie Traksel clearly never did a sprint in his entire career.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Not sure you can call it misfortune.

In this instance, it looks like he lost his grip.

Riding error.

Riding error is a bit harsh when it's rainy and that cold, his fingers slipped/he lost his grip.
Gloves that fully cover your fingers could have prevented this one.

 

[titan31]

Hopefully he's ok and not injured. It was a fair whack he took. If he's not injured, he takes GC tomorrow easily but if he is, could be interesting.

 

[red_flanders]

I’m looking forward to some salty, self-deprecating comments from the Welshman....

 

[Alexandre B.]

Geraint Thomas and Miguel Angel Lopez are ascending. Who crashes first?

 

[tobydawq]

I think it was because he tried to change gear. I suppose UCI will have to ban different gears on bikes from now on.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Thomas needs to practice holding the bars properly before the Tour.

Your username is spot on

 

[JosefK]

Haha, what the hell? Vintage Thomas.

Few are capable of crashing convincingly going uphill.
