Broken elbow is a rotten injury. It will require plenty of titanium. I got one after a trip over the handlebars and I needed two operations and 7 months of physio.

The skybunker is in lockdown mode. The silence is deafening. But they have sent out swarms of bots to infest the interwebs with protestations about "lynch mobs" and the like.Angliru said:Has Sky made an official statement regarding the incident?
So Seb out for at least 3-4 months, complaint has been filed and they expect UCI will call in witnesses. Madiot says he trusts Reichenbach - he's not the kind to BS ("c'est un calme"). Madiot thinks Moscon came off light with the racism incident because Reza didn't want to push it further AND Sky's suspension of Moscon was conveniently in his recovery period (so he wouldn't have raced much anyway).HelloDolly said:http://m.leparisien.fr/amp/sports/cyclisme/chute-de-reichenbach-madiot-la-on-ne-rigole-plus-04-10-2017-7308873.php

Yeah why not ? You think FDJ may try something ? Would be a bit daft to have a pop at him in an italian race.
Sure that would be amazing if it were true but it's not. You and your ilk bandy around hyperbole like "definitive" and "hung drawn and quartered" and other childish strawman type statements. Unless it has escaped your attention this is a discussion forum not a court. No one is obliged to conform to legal requirements of evidence in a discussion. No one is making definitive judgements but there is a certain amount of background evidence that isn't just from the individuals involved. Based upon the existence of a known motive most intelligent people would not be surprised if it turns out that Moscon is actually responsible. Whereas in contrast they would be absolutely gobsmacked if it turns out Reichenbach is just making it up and fell off on his own.huge said:It is amazing how people are so quick to give a definitive judgement of what happens based only on one side of the story. Just because they don't like the guy... wonder if they were real life judges! People convicted even before entering a courtroom.

Reichenbach had an accident in his own, but FDJ took the opportunity to blame it on Moscon seeking revenge for the Reza affair, as they think the guy was not punished for what he said at the time.

Sound like the most likely version ....
so basically you are saying Sebastian Reichenbach is making a false accusation (as he went on to press criminal charges against Moscon) .....

Reichenbach is a favourite of his (long standing) but he is a mega SKY fan ....#kirbythorn

In fact, Reichenbach doesn't even exist. He is merely a projection of your own witchhunt against San Gianni. It's Reza's own fault he is black and he should be called out for it and it's the team car who held on to the entity that is called Moscon. A crash? How can you can make someone crash when said person doesn't even exist?
I call for a wake in the name of Gianni Moscon. A wake held in one of Rupert Murdoch's summer houses, a wake in which will be announced that if anyone ever has the guts to call out Gianni Moscon, the true leader of (wo)men, he gets imprisoned and can rot to death like anyone else who doesn't fit into the sacred values of xenophobia, bigotry and class war the Murdoch empire holds so dear.

Marc Madiot is ticked off. Where are the Sagan fans and their frame by frame videos when you need them ? So we can tell if a piece of fruit or cr@p is to blame. I'm keeping it light, but it's really serious.HelloDolly said:http://m.leparisien.fr/amp/sports/cyclisme/chute-de-reichenbach-madiot-la-on-ne-rigole-plus-04-10-2017-7308873.php
