Tour de France 2017 Stage 16: Le Puy to Romans-sur-Isère

Re:

How much could be gained in 10 miles, half cross, half tail?
A minute, at most, if the conditions are really favourable, I'd say

Well if get a gap in the crosswind part, you may extend it in the tailwind. Anyway, the sprinters just want to get rid of their rivals, it doesn't matter if it's 10 seconds or 10 minutes and the GC riders are probably happy with whatever they might gain over their rivals.

Maybe Contador made the attack just to disrupt Sky taking on bidons?

Kiwa missed a feed earlier.

[TomLPC]

It's great to watch kwiat riding, way beyond his years

 

[LaFlorecita]

Whatever are people gonna do when Contador retires? Some of the crap that comes out when he moves an inch is unbelievable. Think the local mental health units will be going full blast when he goes.

You want to get banned mate?

Everyone ready for nothing to happen?

 

[Frankschleck]

[MartinGT]

They won't go away, they'll still keep inserting Contador into race threads talking about how much more exciting it would be if he was still racing blah blah blah.

No, but suggesting certain fans belong in mental health units is probably not very smart!
