Why the instructions were such - goes even beyond Vino.

And he foreshadowed wearing white with his “Be like Mads—Ride a bike” promo!Wow didnt realise Mads is still young enough for white
To paraphrase: "The best part today was a certain rider crashing"
Pretty sure we have rules against that.
Agreed. It wasn't just opportunism. 4 of them hit the front together and started pushing it. A clear call from the DS. When your GC guy is Vincenzo Nibali, maybe, but when it's MAL, absolutely mental.The riders were just following the instructions they were given.

Oh don't get the moral high groundTo paraphrase: "The best part today was a certain rider crashing"

But he found the best possible replacement in KristoffImagine if Mads Pedersen has not lost his lead out with 1K to go!
Huh?It can't be a coincidence that the top 3 finishers come from countries where they're used to skiing and ice skating.
Huh?
The only place in Denmark that I know of where you can ski is down a power plant.
Have we any updates on any of the crashed riders yet
Rest In Peace in peace?RIP in peace Marc Madiot

I always give Liggett a pass, but this time is just too much. He is disconnected from the sport really. He can't make comments if he doesn't follow cycling anymore. He should do himself and the fans a favor and retire.I just can’t get behind Pinot because he always disappoints in the GT’s. Seems like the great pretender when he should have been the great contender.
This race was a mess. Too many guys not in tip top race form due to lack of racing caused a lot of mistakes. Looked like a pinball game with bodies flying everywhere. Lucky nobody was seriously hurt. Was nice to watch the tour again but I didn’t enjoy this stage much with all the carnage. Then I have to put up with that knucklehead Liggett making wrong call after wrong call, missing names and completely missing the action or describing it incorrectly. Bloody annoying. Just dump this stooge already.
Sagan green
Pozzovivo and a bunch of other guys crashed because of a fan who was taking a selfie, apparently is elbow is broken once again...Have we any updates on any of the crashed riders yet
