Tour de France 2020 | Stage 9 (Pau - Laruns, 153 km)

[Broccolidwarf]

No its not a terrible reference, its just you who are stuck up

"Stuck up"?

I have no idea what you are on about dude.

 

[Eclipse]

Kamna and Kirby, uh oh

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Hirschi is quite a stylish rider. Fabian has taught his padawan well

 

[Libertine Seguros]

That or a Vino

How could Lelle have done more to deserve a place in our memories?!

 

[bob.a.feet]

Hm, good for him if he's doing better, but he didn't come here to win a stage from the break...

Of course he didn't come here for a breakaway win, but it's nice to see him bounce back after yesterday.

Then why do you find it "pathetic", that a guy who suffered a big defeat yesterday, goes on the attack today?

So you didn't even know the reasoning behind my post, but somehow, someway, you have jumped to conclusions and roll eye posts? Weird, to say the least. What I find pathetic is that Pinot, according to Pinot, couldn't put any force on the pedals due to a messed up back, which they have had to work on every day for 3 hours. Ok, that sounds like a fair explanation. Fast forward to not even 24 hours later and somehow he is reborn, attacking, dancing on the pedals. How is that possible? Was it magic, was it some natural force?

I think I know why: the mental blockade. We've seen it before, and we'll probably see it again, be it this or next year. Roglic gives up in the Dauphine, and Pinot is the man to beat, looking to be in the best shape and being in the best position GC wise. All of a sudden he's getting dropped left, right and center. Race is out of reach and Pinot looks amazing once more. So yes, I find that pathetic.

 

[Salvarani]

Hirschi super-strong

You still find it pathetic now that we've seen it was all just to help his team mates getting in the break?

 

[markene2]

I hope Rolland somehow makes it into the top 10 at the end of the tour

 

[fuiers]

Martinez waking up. He and Hirschi could decide the stage.

It's pretty difficult to know the reasoning behind your post, when you don't write the reasoning behind your post.........

I do find it interesting though, that what you (apparently) find pathetic, is all stuff you have made up yourself, without a shred of actual knowledge or evidence...... so yeah, eye roll incoming:

Hirschi is a pretty good descender but alone against the group will be hard between the climbs.

Stage win came into sight. Que the mental blockade.

Haters will be haters

 

[KZD]

Pinot blew up again

 

[SKSemtex]

What a joy to watch Tour wihout Sky superdominance.

 

[bob.a.feet]

What the hell is going on with Hirschi's stem?

Also there is nothing 'pathetic' about Pinot. He is not flying after being weak yesterday, he just tried to attack. He's clearly not in top shape.

 

[fuiers]

Pinot was trying to see what kind of pressure he can take. That's admirable.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

Hirschi looks like a machine

 

[Salvarani]

MAL?!

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Stage win came into sight. Que the mental blockade.

Pinot has won six GT stages, all of which are at least medium mountain stages.

 

[Broccolidwarf]

6 JV and 3 Ineos in the peloton.

 

[DenisMenchov]

I don't understand why Hirshi is pushing this much. Obviously he can't solo to a win here. Must be a better option to wait for the rest of the break.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

6 JV and 3 Ineos in the peloton.

But Castroviejo is ahead, isn't he?

 

[70kmph]

Pinot lol
