Or just use pitchforks as dress code, that‘s way easier.

 

[Krzysztof_O]

Will they neutralize the stage again? (strong winds are dangerous to the race stop star) or will our hero show some strong riding at the end? Waiting for the GC action until stage 4 isn't a good prospect.

 

[Netserk]

20-25 km/h headwind in the finale (finish-line at the bonus sprint, they go clock-wise):

Lots of Tour winners on the attack according to PCS!

He? There were two.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Conditions look absolutely horrific

Serves 'em right.

 

[pelotonIQ]

The weather conditions aren't even that bad. If you were blind you'd think it's women racing by the amount of complaining.

Because women are known for always complaining more...

 

[Netserk]

Hayter belongs on the track.

 

[proffate]

Why bend the hip? Why not just use a Swapfiets found on a local sidewalk?

probably not UCI compliant, but would have made for some funny pictures

 

[Tim Cahill]

If Hayter had Sagan's bike handling he'd be winning everything, unfortunately he rides on the flat like poor old Pierre Latour does on the descents.

What a stupid comment. Clearly someone who has never watched a women's race. Take your misogyny to Joe Rogan or something.

I wonder how many of those riders wished they'd gone to the UAE

At the moment I would guess 100%!

 

[Netserk]

Kwiatkowski out. Maybe he crashed?

 

[Netserk]

Peloton at +1'55".

 

[Netserk]

Lovely terrain.

 

[Lequack]

Time for Vinge to show these amateurs what it means to ride a bike.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

 

[pelotonIQ]

Was that a spectator joining the riders up the climb? (red shorts & white helmet)

 

[Tim Cahill]

Ride for the ultramythical WIlco victory Rabobank you cowards.

 

[search]

this must be the best of Molenaar's around 20 breakaway efforts so far this year.
