2014 Pro-cycling season thread

Bang on Uber. It was a dangerous place to stand, and no one should have been there. It was more dangerous by not having a motorbike whistling and signalling.

Sucks for both parties involved but hope Summer shrugs it off and moves on. Not his fault. And hope this incident will remind spectators how cautious they need to be.

Anyway!! Fab is too good.

PR will be good, I hope G makes the selection. He seems to be on banging form right now. So he should. Wigwam will ride for him for sure. With stannard out G is the man. Sucks for Stannard. But his chance will come.

Vansummeren crashed into the curb, then crashed into the lady. He crashed like loads of other riders did yesterday, just in his case it was very unfortunate that a spectator was involved as well. He is certainly not to blame, although I think you could make a case for the race organisers being liable. That family should not have been allowed to stand where they were, and there should have been someone one the island alerting the riders to the hazard.

Apparently EBH is the chosen one for P-R next weekend, in the absence of Stannard, but I'm sure G will be in the mix. Good to see Wiggins in the chasing group in the last 20k too
