Tour de France Tour de France 2023, stage 14: Annemasse - Morzine, 151.8k

[meat puppet]

Jumbo should have put bodies up the road. No way they tire out UAE doms like this.

Or is this just about gauging the opponent and giving it the beans on the Loze stage?

Thing is, this way Poga likely takes time today too.

Here come the Jumbots.

Yes - seems like every mountain are going to be races hard🚵‍♂️

Here I thought we were going to see the traditional get in the break and wait for Vinge at the top. Who knows - maybe later or never🤔🤔

Laporte pulling in the peloton, O'Connor dropped.

 

[Valv.Piti]

Something I enjoy every year during the TdF especially is the race for top-10 or thereabouts, with Bardet and Meintjens out thats taking a rather big hit. Always interesting with these breaks

How does the temporary neutralisation affect the calculation of the cut off. Is the time that they were stopped considered to be race time, thus reducing the average speed and with it the tolerance for delays?

Jumbo might be revving up to attack one or two of these Cat 1s.

Good to hear. I heard it was raining at the finish, but if the descent is dry, great.

Pog dropped on Marie Blanque after his team rode hard all day, so perhaps that's what Jumbo are trying to recreate.

 

[Volderke]

Laporte vs. Ciccone: 1-0 (or at least: he keeps them on a thight leash, not allowing them to get any more than 30s).

If Jumbo rides like this and Vinge can't drop Pogi, he probably doesn't have it. This is his terrain.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Johannessen was being named as one of those who was down in the big early incident: he seems to be happy enough now.

 

[Didinho]

I think the Jumbo car was also involved in the crash. Some concussions there.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Poor Adrien Petit he's basically semi-naked at this point

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

That's about as much of Adrien Petit's right buttock as I ever want to see in a day.

"unless it is slightly damp, whereupon I fully support a rider protest, stage neutralisation and removal of time limits."

Looks like jumbo is terrified of Landa now the Alpes are here.

 

[Volderke]

That woman with her 'Bretagne' banner...

Reminded me of opi omi: not looking at the riders but trying to get attention of the camera, taking space on the road... Massive facepalm.

Kuss: "The downhill was not steep enough"

 

[Tim Cahill]

Pinot doing his trademark 'attack the break then look around and stop when they follow' move with only a mere 117k and 3 mountains left in the stage.

 

[Pirazziattacks]

"unless it is slightly damp, whereupon I fully support a rider protest, stage neutralisation and removal of time limits."

Honestly, what is your problem? This is incredibly tiresome and small minded.

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Ala boxing Powless away for Ciccione to take the KOM, okay.

 

[Armchair Cyclist]

Cardboard seems to have superceded bedsheets as the material of choice for roadside posters. It is worrying that Omi-Opi woman has become a trend setter.

 

[solo80k]

I see Kwiatkowski doesn't have enough climbing after yesterday. He's apparently missing the almighty Sky train from the old days.

 

[pelotonIQ]

Today is the day Poga prescribes Vinge fans a reality check.
