Remco got passed Del Toro?

 

[Volderke]

Okay, I'll agree to that. Same region more or less.

Santiago de Compostela is so wet. Between 100 and 242 mm rain per month except in the three summer months. Must be awful to be a bike rider there.

Not necessarily, I mean, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedalo

Vingegaard keeping a safe distance to Roglic in order to not hit the wet tarmac?

I can feel the rivalry between these two through the screen...left over Vuelta feelings me thinks

 

[AnotherArmChair]

UAE ? sprinting for who exactly

 

[Tim Cahill]

Anyone semi-fast can probably take a couple of very easy stages the field is so shallow, not sure why one team at least hasn't brought a proper sprinter

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Why are there some riders who never ever stop crashing and other who very rarely if ever

Tao ?

 

[noob]

[Salvarani]

TGH in trouble. Outside of 3km.

 

[Samamba]

[Didinho]

[Gratemans]

[ChewbaccaDefense]

[AnotherArmChair]

[DNP-Old]

Haha Gregoire being p*ssed off

Gregoire was the one to fall.

 

[Gratemans]

Wow, what an utter chaos.

 

[Salvarani]

Lapeira!

Fantastic season so far.

 

[DNP-Old]

Lapeira profiting heavily from the Decathlon bonus.

 

[RedheadDane]

Congrats to Lapeira, but what the hell kind of filming was that?

 

[Peyroteo94]

Such a random winner. Now, we know we are in Pais Vasco.

 

[pastronef]

YES!!! Decathlon. it's great to see them succeed this year

 

[noob]

weird finish but fun with a rider I had never heard of

Could be a coincidence. But there is little doubt that it's hard times for the sprinters and their best leadout guys. The routes have become tougher, and the speed is higher than ever. Riders like Groenewegen and Cavendish are really feeling it. Mørkøv talked about that in an interview yesterday.

 

[Tim Cahill]

The GC contenders absolutely noped out of that
