Team Leper taking the lead. Starting to get nervous.

Does anyone have a profile? I tried searching on the official website, but the language is kind of a problem. I found the roadbook but nothing more.

Anyway, rooting for a breakway to succeed and a darkhorse to take this!

Here's a good stream

You should become a comedian!

 

[Moondance]

LEOPARD-TREK?!?!? They still exist?

 

[The Hitch]

Stop mentioning CQ! Gosh!

So he cant mention genuine cycling websites now?

How else are we supposed to judge the abilities of lesser known riders for example. Or compare previous results or whatever.

Now that's comedy.

That's amazing, the decision to ride without radios yesterday: people in the second group did not know that Langeveld was still riding at the front

So they thought they were riding for second, when really they were riding for third? Eh. I think this whole race radio thing has been blown out of proportion. Simple solution: keep radios, but have only one channel. Any DS can speak to their riders any time they want, but the whole peloton hears whatever they say. That allows teams to warn their riders about crashes or time gaps, but takes away some of the private tactical games.

Why is there a BMC rider sleeping in the middle of the road?

 

[palmerq]

bmc guy looks like he crashed quite badly, he looks stunned :S

 

[ak-zaaf]

Chute Devolder?

yep, that's it for him.

Well perhaps Flecha did not even know when he went on the attack?

Anyway, that is the BMC we were getting used to see since the giro last year

[hrotha]

Where's the rain? Who's responsible for this!?!?!

 

[Spare Tyre]

I think it was 88 - Simon Zahner (but my stream is a bit dodge and I don't speak Dutch so not 100% sure.)

what happens if DSes speak at the same time? The riders will find it too noisy and support radio ban?
