Frank Hoste telling how he screwed Sean Kelly out of the green jersy in 1984 and bought a stage in 1986 is just the best.  Much more interesting thant the stage so far.

The German Eurosport guys were just debating the food coloring content of various candies. Previously they were talking about the English term "WAGs" and how the German language lacks an equivalent. Some top, top banter today.

Norwegian broadcaster got a visit from chess champion Magnus Carlsen, and are currently speculating on which rider has the highest iq in the peloton. Nope, absolutely essential topics for discussion. Noone is bored by the stage so far.

Jack Bauer is not related to Steve Bauer, as I once thought before. :-)

serious gaylord posted:I'll remind you all of these posts when the Tinkoff train is in full flow for all the Grand tours next season. The difference is that Nibali and Contador wouldn't come out of the blue like Froome suddenly did at a pretty late age. Also they have better technique, Froome's technique is worse than friggin Voecklers

David Millar, however had a great quote about cyclists: quote:“They give off the image of exceptional men but in fact they are very, very ordinary. Simple people without much education, who aren’t fun to eat with, who don’t get into intellectual discussions. All they have in life is cycling. Without that, it’s finished. I think he and Adam Hansen are the most fun to hang out with. DONT TOUCH THE PC fucked around with this message at 15:47 on Jul 20, 2014 |

Greipel tried to shoulder Kristoff, and lost momentum doing so. Feel bad for Bauer, but I'm glad for Kristoff

I never got that, surely you get some money for coming in second, even on a stage in the TdF? Why not go all out and risk getting second, instead of letting the peleton swallow you up. edit: Yeah, you totally get money according to this: http://www.roadcycling.co.nz/TourdeFrance/tour-de-france-demystified-part-2.html
