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

[auscyclefan94]

I bet LA is finding it hard being just a regular guy in the peloton, instead of the great patron given extra room all the time.

Gonna be another angry team dinner tonight for RSH. Even if it wasn't the team's fault, it will be the team's fault.

True, they still should sit up and let the guy back in.

We got it Publicus!

Sorry, it finally woke me up. Waiting for the coffee to finish brewing.

He must have hit pretty hard.

Good to see BMC up the front with Cadel!

Come on Cadel you can do it!

He appreciates your loving rays of positive energy. You are the preciouss to his gollum

Elaborate cover to switch over to the mo-ped bike in a moment.

Still not back on. He looks a bit "off". Broke his bike, too. His own fault or a mechanical, it seems.

armstrong has a lot to learn

True, they still should sit up and let the guy back in.

Why would they do that?

 

[auscyclefan94]

The BMC boys are right up there! They aren't back at holland but they are HERE!

I was waiting for someone to say that. AC took the left side of the roundabout with less riders.

sky boys winding it up

 

[Mellow Velo]

Race plans to change? Cadel, Wiggins and Astana massing........

 

[superconfex]

sky set the pace

 

[Moondance]

The BMC boys are right up there!

Disgusting tactics, first time on the front is when Saint Lance is down

 

[movingtarget]

Where's Cancellara when you need him................

 

[bobs nob]

Heat?

Is it the same temperature as yesterday?

 

[auscyclefan94]

Why would they do that?

It would be funny if Astana put the hammer down and lance lost big time. bertie would be in trouble.

 

[Thee_chisa]

autobus getting formed

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Armstrong made it back and will be fine on this climb whilst the adrenaline lasts - could well feel it on the real climb though.

 

[Fourier]

It's autobus time!

 

[auscyclefan94]

Anyone have a clear feed which is not choppy?

 

[Thee_chisa]

interesting how sky are riding this.

some astana boys dropping off

 

[sometriguy]

Anyone have a clear feed which is not choppy?

the feeds are always worse on the big stages when there are more viewers

 

[Publicus]

It would be funny if Astana put the hammer down and lance lost big time. bertie would be in trouble.

Have you been drinking?? I know it's evening there, so that's the only way to explain your comment that AC would be in trouble.

 

[Thee_chisa]

this annoying when they continue to show the break riders when there is stuff going on among the gc guys
