Tour de France 2016

Should have stopped and had a beer or coffee then.

Indeed, it looks like Hex Cycling (https://hexcycling.com/) have taken over the space. They're linking to Hex/Pretorius rides so I'm not sure if they're connected in any way.

from hexcycling.com/about

HEX is the spiritual home of Pretorius. Together we run a number of organised rides that start and finish at HEX. Their approach to group riding is the best in London and it promotes camaraderie, disciplined formation and good fun.

Just rang them and they said they've got two TVs, one inside and one out and they can easily accommodate a bunch of wankers off of LFGSS

They just said on ITV4 it's the longest time the Tour de France has been run without an abandonment.

Good to hear, fingers crossed that goes on a bit longer yet.

Just the wankers...

Oh, nvm

Perfect, i'll be down in 10

What's the average pace today? I'm just dropping in and out, but there doesn't seem to be much of a rush (again).

I know there's a lot of downhill now, but they're going to struggle to get in by 4:30pm again when ITV4 is scheduled to.

I don't think they finish at 16:30 strictly, the slow one on Monday they kept on till past 17:00 I think.

Under 2km to go

Cav

Epic!

Caven-BOSH!

Fuck yes. Really well done... came from nowhere with only 400m to go.

2nd all-time stage winner now.

Called it this morning.

Should be a betting man.

Cav's timing is spot on, again. Etixx way too late to get Kittel's bulky flywheel going

And Lotto Jumbo's train was gone just under the 1km mark, more practice needed. Or Groenewegen will have to adjust his wheel surfing skills (like Cavendish did very well today)

Dimension Data = Bandits.

McClay! Incredible

29 TdF stage wins in total.

That's nuts.

Ha! It's true.

But Cav worked for that. How long was that sprint?!

I thought it was never going to end! Started to think Cav was going to lose it at the line, both of the other two were gaining on him, though as already stated, his timing was just about spot on.

So is Kittel off his form, or is Mark just back at his best? Would be really interested to see a comparison of power/speed etc

french Eurosport been talking about McClay lots today,,,, awesome Cav
