Menchov drilling it on the front

spalco said:
Doesn't prove anything, of course he's still there the first 2 times, let's see how he's doing the 6th, adn 7th time.

Point is he is at the front. And the others need to drop him for significant time.

This commentator has been the highlight of the day, first it was creepy but now is just funny. Sounds like he just woke up.

Why is the Aussie kit all yellow? Shouldn't it be yellow and green? Right now it looks kinda like the Tour leader or something.

That's the point wise guy. I see them.for.all of 0.6 seconds and am trying to work out which one.menchov is.

Oh, he's pretty recognizable and the camera has been a few times near him.

Then sorry :(

And can someone explain what Rodgers is doing. Also if it's a sky tactic it's weird.

Do you think the break might actually make it? If they get 7 minutes by the time they enter the flat, with no radios, it might just work... It would truly be hilarious.

Kinda off topic but the car with the camera that does the super slomo shots costs 1.8 million euro. What the? Is it made of gold?

i am starting to afraid that the break is to far and to strong for the non sprinter teams start doing quicker pace, thay might not catch the break themselves

Think radios won't matter much as they get info along the course.

Rogers isn't riding for sky, he's riding for Aus, he's probably trying to encourage more people to attack across to him and make it harder for GB

Everything is part of the Sky masterplan. Nations mean nothing.

I remember sean Kelly saying with about 150k from the end of msr when the group had 15mins that they would need to have half an hour to start a chance. Ok so a group of 12 with pope lls and dodger stands a better chance but the have a very small.gap for now.

Yes but it's won't be instant, so it might be harder for them to get the prefect rhythm to reel the breakaway in.
