Critérium du Dauphiné 2023, June 4 - 11

[QueenStagiaire]

Victor Campenaerts has dropped his breakmates and is now leading the race up the Col de la Madeleine.

 

[Samamba]

Climber Campenaerts.

Went last night accidentally on a party date with a gay german man who kept buying me drinks, very hungover now but this stage will help me recover

I love you man.

P.S. Where is vwipe?

 

[Samamba]

Latour closed down 4 minutes on the breakaway uphill to just loose 2 minutes again on the downhill and get caught by the bunch.

Virtually in KOM Jersey tho, that's something.

Cycling is called cykling in Danish.

Now, you're closer.

How do you say fan war in Danish?

 

[Rob5091]

Ineos back to their train riding - candidates for Horner's knuckleheads description.

 

[Samamba]

Ineos riding for Bernal but Bernal himself on bottles carrying duty?

Victor Campenaerts has dropped his breakmates and is now leading the race up the Col de la Madeleine.

The Col de la Madeleine sounds like some really attractive high jumper.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Climbernaerts has done a great job so far, but 3 minutes shouldn't be enough to hold on.

 

[KZD]

Great to see Campenaerts trying a solo but anything other than a Vingegård's watts bomb on the last climb would be a surprise and Jumbo is looking strong today.

Yeah impossible, but if he can survive this climb he could get the KOM jersey.

Jumbo does not seem to be slow-pacing this either.

Enjoyed the interview with Stephen Cummings this morning, solely because he sounds exactly like what you'd think Stephen Cummings as a DS would sound like. Anyway, the only semi-interesting tidbit was that he thinks he can put his three GC cards to some use.

I love you man.

P.S. Where is vwipe?

I thought vwpe was still banned but he is not anymore. He's followed his own advice to other posters to 'go outside' and this is why he knows so much.

Hopefully he comes back when VDP beats WVA to the rainbow jersey to make a million posts about how wva just can't compete with the raw natural power of VDP and how WVA says this himself in the conversations they have together , because vwpe and wva are close friends.

The German commentators are talking so much nonsense.
Is it worth switching?

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Stage 7 starts 10.40 CET , TV from 13.15 CET - early start folks!

I didn't check the stream schedule (or this thread) beforehand and was very surprised to see that this morning, at 4am PST, the race had only 43km left. Egads, I nearly overslept the whole stage!

But at least they have a nice name for Jonas: Vinge-god. Even if I think it's not by purpose.

 

[Samamba]

Be nice Jumbo give the man his KOM Jersey

 

[Taxus4a]

Hope to see Landa today fighteen for stage, despite is a short one and for GC men. He is not at his best now, but I hope in long climbs like this one stay at least with the best and take his oportunities. Vingegard is intouchable, but Carapaz can be close and for sure attack in an stage like today, becouse he is strong now.

Belgian Ben Swift leading the Peloton, I‘m getting Giro flashbacks.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Moses has descended from the heavens to cheer on the riders

So who is getting second today?

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Campenaerts caught at 12.5km to go

 

[BR2]

So who is getting second today?

Hindley?
Or Yates.
