Stage 8: Station des Rousses - Morzine-Avoriaz 189km

[bobs nob]

I'm suprised Alphonse hasn't gotten more love on the forum.

Those ads ARE funny. I was thinking of making some parodies and posting to youtube, I happen to have a very close friend that resembles alphonse

Evans looks like he is laboring.

He is fine I think. Morabito up there with him is good.

And yet you have failed to post anything but whining commentary about people posting about Lance. I would suggest you look in the mirror sweetie.

I came on to post in support of Cadel and to comment on the strength (and apparent loyalty) of Vino. But when I opened the door, there was a massive Lance-hater celebration going on, led by the usual suspects.

Basso there, Cadel there, Ryder there still?

Evans always looks like he's about to pinch off a loaf.

Its called having a poker face...

Interesting questions now....

Will Armstrong target a stage victory now?

Will Armstrong and Bertie end up being friends now the rivary is over?

Armstrong may feign an injury and drop out... ego too big to suffer through to the end with no hope of winning.

So this stage is very interesting at the pointy end. Astana showing to be a very strong team. AC, CE and AS all looking very comfy right now. The firewords should start somewhere in the next 5 km.

rodriguez attacks. About time katusha showed themselves.

 

[editedbymod]

will this make armstrong a more humble and likeable person?

I can see tribute races with appearance fees coming on.

 

[Potomac]

still 25? guys in the main bunch....far too many

 

[jaylew]

rodriguez! finally a man on my fantasy team

Mine too.

 

[turtlesoup]

vino going off the back again

 

[Publicus]

Vino and Tiralongo done. I think AC is just going to ride tempo until someone worth following attacks.

So we are responsible for YOU not posting what you want? Victim much? What a whiny little wuss you are.

Gesink is dropping off in 3...2...1..

 

[Parrot23]

Who is the BMC rider in the main group, aside from Cadel?

 

[Thee_chisa]

who is the HTC guy in there?

 

[sublimit]

Thanks man, I am glad the hatchet has been buried.

Cheers, yes I did say a something a few weeks back and i regretted it. I was probably drunk or something.

Hatchet buried.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Vino absolutely sacrificed himself today. I hope the haters are watching this.

Say, where's Lance?

 

[kurtinsc]

I'm sad that the crash for Lance happened right before the climb. Nobody did anything wrong, but I would rather have seen Lance beat without an excuse.

I'm curious where Horner is right now... when he rode off from the Lance group it was maybe 1:30-2:00 back. I don't think he can catch the leaders... but I'm curious to see if he lowered the gap on this stage.

Shame for him if he was strong enough to hold on to the main group but gets screwed by shepharding Lance.

 

[Publicus]

Cuddles isn't looking great. But then again, he never does look great climbing.

 

[The Hitch]

that footon rider, vals feray or whatever looks like a decent rider. After yesterdays heroics hes only now being dropped.
