[Parrulo]

nice recovery by karpets to one of the groups trying to get back to peloton

rui costa is on that group. i read that rui costa fell on stage 1 and has a cut in his knee + some pain.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Group ride. Nice.

 

[Frosty]

Sandy Casar WTF?

Maybe losing time to increase his chances of being in a break?

 

[valentius borealis]

27 seconds to the group with Karpets and Casar

Sandy Casar WTF?

I mentioned it early, I wonder if he has some type of injury or sickness because he was dangling off the back of the peleton on Saturday just before the crashes. Can't imagine its just bad tactics because I don't recall any time before that he been caught on a split.

 

[Maxiton]

Tchmil said this was Karpets's last chance. Maybe he really, really wants him to fail hard.

Tchmil should be fired.

 

[on3m@n@rmy]

Karpets is back in the main group

 

[valentius borealis]

and Karpets is back in the peleton

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Tchmil is a hard-*** and many riders don't go well under that kind of DS

 

[Maxiton]

Karpets back on. Nice riding.

 

[Carl0880]

Seems a little early to catch the breakaway, 35 km from the finish

 

[Maxiton]

Tchmil is a hard-*** and many riders don't go well under that kind of DS

Yeah, I hate that kind of DS. I mean, as a fan, not a rider.

 

[craig1985]

Tchmil is a hard-*** and many riders don't go well under that kind of DS

So that would explain why he Pozzato don't get on?

90 degree turn at 3KM to go? First week of the Tour? Expect crashes.

3.1 km to go or 2.9? Big difference

It gets old, doesn't it?

 

[Jamsque]

HTC and Garmin have stopped chasing, they weren't ready to make the catch.

 

[Jamsque]

It gets old, doesn't it?

Have you ever watched Parapluie de Cherbourg? It is awful. Really, really bad. I always remember because for some reason it was the first film I ever watched on DVD.

 

[Publicus]

Really appreciate the French fans. They love their race.

 

[Parrulo]

french people are such attention *****s.

well at least there is something to see other then a 200 odd guys having a nice sunday ride

 

[on3m@n@rmy]

Nice diversion of attention by the cool arrangement of farmer's tractors in the form of a bicycle

 

[GroupDK]

god damn, some of those french farmers are very creative.

love the big cycle where there was rulling tractors to ilutrate the wheels and crank.

nice done. !
