Tour de France Tour de France 2022: Stage 2 (Roskilde – Nyborg, 202.2k)

[JosefK]

I don't think there are bonus seconds for intermediate sprints

Btw, it is strange that Pedersen is not interested in the green jersey...

My feed on NBC (U.S.) was talking about 3-2-1 bonus seconds. Not surprised if they were mistaken.

Apparently they already decided that Wout would win it anyway.

But Van Aert is riding with a knee injury and it could recur at any time

No one remembers the guys who finish 3rd-5th in the points classification, but if he manages to win this stage and/or tomorrow's, it'll forever be a part of Danish cycling history.

Anyone of the Danish here out there today btw?

I feel sorry for the guys today if they want to pee :O

I would be shocked if Redhead isn't there

My ride this morning took me to Roskilde. Massive crowds in the area near the harbor. I didn't try to get to the center of the city (where I believe the rider presentation took place) because there were just too many people. Likewise, I passed a LOT of amateur cyclists out to see the race.

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

UAE should be at the front, keeping Pogi safe instead of in the pack which is going to be a scrum.

I rode from CPH to Roskilde as well, but to see the rider presentation and after that ride to another spot to see the riders pass through the rolling start. Better weather to watch cycling in than yesterday
Very little surprise that Team DSM got the smallest applause by far. The omission of Kragh has left them with very little fans here in Denmark.

Has anyone ever seen a better crowd on a (flat) Tour stage?

Crowds in Yorkshire were massive on both stages

 

[Lequack]

A crash

I feel like in general when GTs go to other countries, crowds tend to be huge.

 

[Savant12]

Ganna to just drill it on the bridge.

 

[Breezy1985]

Just joining in now. Is this the typical boring sprint stage so far ?

I wouldn't call the Sheffield stage a flat stage.

Unless you mean the Harrogate and London stages, counting the London stage as being part of the Yorkshire départ because they hadn't got to France yet, although it wasn't in Yorkshire?

Off topic: Do you have a link to your Fuglsang quote? It's amazing!

Froome dropping to avoid potential crashes in this nervous bunch that could compromise his GC.

 

[MartinGT]

Froome looked cooked then.

Back.

Probably doing intervals to practice his yoyo for Huez.

When is the bridge?

 

[noob]

What did Küng do?

Approx 20K to go

What did Küng do?

Grabbed the helmet, it looked like. Potential DQ..
