60-90 seconds today would put sky on edge and make the next two days far more interesting

Yeah lots of teams putting men on the front protecting top 10 GC positions at the moment, which is making Sky's life easier. Movistar and Tinkoff both have men in the break, though, so this could get interesting. They have to try something early.

It's all going ballistic in the coveted "best Frenchman in the race" tournament
|

But more importantly, are there any cameras on Pinot????

How come Sagan is 7 minutes back?
|
# ? Jul 23, 2015 14:46 |

Because hes a sprinter who didnt get in the break today.

Why Pinot? He's not even the leading Frenchman. I mean, he's on his own so they can more easily shove a camera in his face/pedals/arse, but is that meant to be interesting to someone? edit 2- Oh, he's not any more. goatface fucked around with this message at 15:15 on Jul 23, 2015 |

I love that Contador always goes for it. Sky not bothering to chase at all it looks like

Who's up the road who will actually help him push on?

Froome looks a bit vulnerable today.
|
# ? Jul 23, 2015 15:38 |

doesn't matter much since everyone else are obviously fighting for second at this point. i mean, movistar especially are not even pretending to go for the win, but noone else are doing much that's useful for actually winning the race rather than getting a podium or whatever either

serious gaylord posted:Froome looks a bit vulnerable today. You think? I'm quite impressed, seems to me like he's much more relaxed about letting the other contenders scrap and shut each other down than he was when he was chasing every attack in 2013.

Did froome just out descend contador?

Catch about 5km out. Idiot sprint at the end.

That climb looks both amazing and boring at the same time. Impressive work by the civil engineer.

Clearly Froome's intake of EPO has improved his descending and bike handling skills by some heretofore unknown method!

he's been injecting lead to improve descending speed

Just the right cocktail to relax and smooth out his daddy long legs technique.

I like that bridge with the polkadot hanging off it. That looks like it would be fun.
