TDF Stage 14: Saint-Gaudens - Plateau de Beille 168km

[Bala Verde]

Izagirre back in the group?

 

[Jeanne]

Allez allez!!!!!!!! :d

 

[The Hitch]

Oh, come off it.

Hes still crying about them not waiting for his chain, a year on. So its not too great an exaggeration.

 

[Arnout]

Izagirre back in the group?

Yes.

Can I have a shot of the peloton though

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

How do you know that. It hasnt been shown on live images.

They showed him briefly some time ago, riding alone but not looking concerned.

 

[Publicus]

Cancellara is drilling it. Gap is now down to 3:30

 

[Libertine Seguros]

a shame with Jakob Fuglsang, dont look like he has anything to shoot with today where he should on the mountains, when he now taking the front on the flat.

Fuglsang is an excellent ITT rider of course. Yes, he should be helping in the mountains, but to be honest, since that breakout Dauphiné he has been much better on shorter, sharper climbs than the high mountains. Think that the tanker crash in the Vuelta might have been part of that.

 

[Arnout]

Show me where samuel sanchez is now.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

I'm getting pretty nervous / excited.

Hoping leopard will really tear it up on the first couple km.

 

[Bala Verde]

BMC has still a bunch of teammates too.

Break not working together. They'll start with 2m advantage or less at the bottom of the climb.

 

[Archibald]

If Schleck had a flat the whole peloton would have to wait., What a disgrace.

didn't for his chain...

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Chavanel out the front

Yep. If you are Andy Schleck you gotta feel pretty good having Jens, Canc and Stuey as your muscle. Assuming Jens can stay up, I mean.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Favorites are going to win. Cancellara is doing amazing work.

 

[Publicus]

Contador looks cool as a fan

 

[Arnout]

Think I saw a bunch of Euskaltels in the back of the peloton.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

didn't for his chain...

And the whining about that has been endless.

 

[Jeanne]

Chavanel out the front

I'm afraid that is not gonna work... but I'd like to see him win

 

[Maxiton]

Conti doesn't look weak to me. He looks like a rocket wound up and ready.

 

[Bala Verde]

Think I saw a bunch of Euskaltels in the back of the peloton.

That's what I thought I saw too.

 

[Ramira]

Favorites are going to win. Cancellara is doing amazing work.

Seems at least one of the Schlecks is feeling really good today because Leopard is doing everything they can to make sure the best of the favourites will end up winning today's stage.

 

[El Pistolero]

He(Bertie) looks better than on Luz Ardiden, but I'm not going to get hopes again. Today I'll focus on Vanendert

 

[superconfex]

birdsong at the front

 

[No_Balls]

Yes, as i have predicted, Alberto definitively looks better today. Not sure he will launch an assault today, though.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Sanchez is already back and surrounded by 4 teammates. He is doing well.
