Tour de France 2020 | Stage 12 (Chauvigny - Sarran, 218 km)

[Leinster]

Zakarin

Let's hope he can race La Vuelta!

I thought tomorrow would be perfect for him, most meters of climbing of this year’s Tour, and hardly any downhill in the final 50km...

If you think this stage might have suited a certain Michael Matthews, his team has grander objectives in mind for him.

Like the KoM jersey in Tirreno Adriatico

Every time I look someone's stretching in the group

In the hindsight, possibly there's been some contract beef between them.

Bol FTW today!


(I have Hirschi in my prediction comp, but I guess Bora think they can do better than I thought they could)

Is it greener in Ireland?
I think it's similar to Slovakia, too.

If you go Giro > Tour it seems to make you a true cycling fan.
What about if you value T-A > Tour?

This makes me think of a Rowan Atkinson skit, the dancing part on a first date.

"This is good." (Tour)
"This is better." (Giro)
"This is starting to be misguided." (T-A)

Peter Kennaugh telling the story of the time Froome grabbed Nibali by the scruff of the neck and held him up against the wall of the team bus. This was after Nibali threw a bottle at Froome. I find this kind of hard to believe.

Impossible.

Froome would've sent Rowe and Moscon both.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

It will be hard not to catch the break soon which will make things interesting on the croix du pey

scruff of the neck meant Froome came up from behind without Nibali seeing him...totally believable.

Froome is like Mansell now?

Well, I guess they both rode in the best team.

Did this happen to be on a Tuesday?

Froome: "Check out my medicine cabinet!"

I realise now that Froome wasn't shocked/angered by Nibali going to throw a bottle, but was shocked/angered that it wasn't sticky.

Puncheur time now

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Jumbo waaay back in the peloton

Asgreen insisting, possibly waiting for an Alaphilippe attack?

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Bennett distanced by Bora

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Who is Bora riding for?

Edit: Nevermind, as per usual, I saw the green jersey dropped and thought "Sagan"

 

[Bonimenier]

I'd love to see a tight sprint between Sagan and Van Aert today.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Anyone fancy a training ride on Asgreens wheel?

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Danish commentator just said:

"Look up the word "indestructible" in the dictionary, and there is a picture of Kasper Asgreen".

 

[fuiers]

Attack by the Sunweb men.

I'd like to see mma between Sagan and van Aert. You know Sagan would crush him at that too.

 

[roundabout]

Bora closed the break too soon.
