Tour de France 2016

Porte chute!

He's up and chasing.

Porte in small crash it seems, pissing it down now

BMC are fucking useless. Where the fuck are they? He needs pacing back up you dopey cunts.

BMC must hate Porte

BMC will never win anything like this. Porte's on his own and has been all race

Good point about Cadel

Oh god, just realised they're going down the steep bit of yesterday's time trial today. That could be descending hell in the wet.

That Tel Aviv tourist board ad is like something off Men & Motors.

Orica trying to make sure Porte has a hard time getting back on.

The carbon Alpenhorns I've seen have been beautifully made. And amazingly light, of course. One of @Cycliste's colleagues plays one, but has to play it in the hall of the block of flats he lives in because none of the rooms in his flat are big enough, IIRC. Must have very understanding neighbours.

Mollema has crashed and is at the back of the yellow jersey group.

Did he actually go down? Or did he just get held up when the two riders wen't down in front of him?

No-one knows, bar Porte at the moment.

Ahh fuck, as predicted. Horrible in the wet.

Froome down?

Yes, down on the white line. He's on Poel's bike and is back chasing.

Those white lines...

Froome down, not for long though.

Yep, got a teammates bike now!

Bardet - Perfect time for an attack!

Yep - pretty minor but he went over and an Astana rider went with him

I reckon it's got a bit to do with brand new tarmac and line markings.

Froome crashed. Back on a/his bike.

So many accidents. What a hairy descent!

Nibbles I think?
