Yea, my mistake

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

'Joy for cycling fans globally!!!!!'

 

[Machu Picchu]

Great finish today and enjoyed Kirby's over excitement even if he did mix up Keisse with an Astana rider

The final couple of minutes here offered up more entertainment than the entire stage today over at Romandie

 

[MartinGT]

Im all for the commentry team getting excited but saying that he will get caught etc when it was clear he wasnt is daft.

OMG- does he know he can get dizzy by hyperventilation?

'joy for cycling fans globally' is one of the funniest pieces of commentary i have ever heard

I think he was confused, someone else was down and he thought for a moment he had been passed.

Like we all were.

Give the guy a break. It was exciting and he got excited.

At least he's interested, more than can be said for some commentators!

Last chance for Goss ( anyone not thinking he will win??? ). Also are Rabo sprinting for Renshaw because he is close in points/ better form/ confidence/ fatigue for Bos- after a big race with hills or what???

I think it will come down to who has the better legs at the end. If Bos is there though they will most likely go for him. Bos is the fastest sprinter out of the two, Renshaw just has more experience. Why would Renshaw have more confidence? Bos won a stage as well, and more emphatically if you ask me.

+100

imagine if sean kelly was calling that race...

'hes just had a crashification and he might win todays classement but i dont really know or care. i did this race in 1981 and you have to watch out for puncturification'

 

[will10]

I refute that, Kelly is the best of the lot on ES

he has a lot of insight but i dont think ive ever heard him get even remotely excited about a bike race

 

[element]

Seriously though, how could you not like Carlton Kirby? -

I know he makes the odd gaff, but I can't help but get sucked in when he gets excited. Yesterday was great!

There's so much wrong in that photo I don't even know where to begin.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Easy sprint win by Bos

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Good week for Rabo.

 

[Poursuivant]

Good win for Bos.

Yesterday was immense from Keisse and I thoroughly enjoyed the commentary!
