Tour de France Tour de France 2024, Stage 9: Troyes > Troyes, 199.0 km

[Scarponi]

Tiny group.

And more whining about Roglic. Maybe he should learn to be a more complete cyclist. Case closed.

There’s been hundreds of grand tour podium getters who aren’t complete cyclists then lol

 

[Slavique Nuke]

De Lie was reminded that this is not a 1.1 race

 

[KZD]

30 seconds between the front peloton and the back one where Roglic and Ayuso are.

 

[ppanther92]

Silly. This doesn't belong in the tour.

The first Tours were raced mostly on gravel. So why it wouldn't? Are we searching a complete rider or are we searching the rider that can go fastest in a pure W/kg competition?

 

[RobertCrawley]

Don't love this.

Half the peloton running up a gravel hill with their bikes over their shoulders.

 

[will-10]

De Lie with the predictable explosion

 

[Tim Cahill]

Cycling purists will never forget this comical ride from De Lie

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Keldermerx showing everyone how to stay in cruise control on a bike in tricky situations!

 

[fbjim]

with zero sectors for quite a bit, i dont think Visma are going to want to kick the hornet's nest here just to put more time into Roglich

 

[Peyroteo94]

This is perfect for UAE. Ayuso will finally work in the mountains.

 

[scribers]

Roglic is way far behind. What happened?

 

[Netserk]

Almeida not waiting.

I think the radio malfunctions.

True. But I hate how much the German Eurosport commentators whine about this stage. It annoys me. Everyone knew it is in. No defect happened so far. So its all about skill so far.

 

[Didinho]

Is Wout there? Everyone else but him it seems.

 

[Tim Cahill]

That surely isn't Wilco styling on the front

 

[noob]

Who of UAE dropped? I saw 5 yellow helmets including Pog

 

[AmRacer]

Remco with 1 servant

We need to put a HC in the middle of Paris Roubaix to find a complete cyclist

 

[will-10]

Seven Vismas in the group

 

[Tim Cahill]

Turner now rubbing it in, Rodriguez has a lot to gain

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Rogla dropping, Visma pulling. If this goes on long enough they are making themselves ripe to be nuked.

 

[Landeirovic]

Almeida Soler Wellens Yates with Pogacar. Wva dropped

 

[Salvarani]

Turner helping out now.

 

[Peyroteo94]

Who of UAE dropped?

Ayuso only. Yates and Almeida with Pogacar.

They didn’t even provide the climb in a state you could ride up its full
Width. It was literally rideable in one lane. That’s garbage
