Tour de France Stage 3: Olonne-sur-Mer - Redon (198 km)

[spalco]

If you zoom right out, you can usually find a rider or two about 300 miles of the south coast of Ghana. That's where they end up when their GPS breaks (it's at 0 Latitude, 0 Longitude). Andrey Zeits is there at the moment.

Haha, poor Zeits. And Bak managed to close the gap, well done.

Eh, can't expect the system to send the data flawlessly in real time, it's cool nonetheless.

He probably went to vacation this morning

Sea-breeze starting to develop now down the west coast of France although its not that strong. Cant help thinking that someone will have something planned around the bridge although it wont necessarily work and there is a long way to go after that to make it stick anyway. We'll see, hopefully something will happen as it will be a bit dull otherwise!

According to this they are riding on the wrong road

It's kinda surreal to see Ac Jimbo {james richardson} talking about cycling, he is synonymous with footbal thingy, esp. with guardian football weekly, i have never seen him talk about cycling coz i have never watch eurosport pre-live show. i wonder whether he talk about the italians on cycling as well ..hehe..

Zeits stuck in a Ghana airport checkout. Probably has the wrong documents.

When will the live race coverage start?

Edit: well, it has started.

With all that crud in the last 6 km today, I'd be surprised if guys like Cance, Vino and Gilbert don't try to blast off the front and hope that a tangle develops behind them.

As far as the TDF goes, I'd expect him to talk about the Basques in that respect.

The break has more than 8 minutes, the peloton really cbf right now.

Garmin will start riding at some point surely, they'd be daft to give up yellow so easily.

 

[craig1985]

Is Zeits back in France now?

 

[craig1985]

It wouldn't be a break in the first week if Rubén Pérez wasn't in it.

Has anyone a link about yesterdays results? I mean where there are the times of Eisel and the others too, because here there is only the teams results, and on letour "The standing is not yet available".

Dunno, i had wondered that as the individual times are normally published. Looking at the difference between stage 1 and stage 2 i noticed that Eisel lost 5.53, the individual losses and gains must be out there somewhere.

ITV's coverage has started. Cav says he is not going to be competing all out for the intermediate sprints, he will try to limit his losses there and go for stage wins.

Nothing, it seems like this information is top secret.

Maybe its Area 51 s***.

Guess he won't / can't play under the new rules. No green for Frodo if that's the case.

Thank you, but now you ruined our theory

It seems like he just can't motivate himself for anything except wins.
