Pro-cycling thread

The best one was in the first week. Near the end of the stage when the tension was ramping up and he was getting into his excited voice, the video feed cuts to a long shot of an island: "and there's the island of DINO, of course the NAME of Fred FLINTSTONE'S DINOSAUR".

Agreed, I feel for him. He still got two stages though, great result for the underdog.

Gotta give credit to quick step though, this is fourth consecutive grand tour where they win four stages, and have done so with four different sprinters...

People have been trying to get rid of Kirby since 2011.

Quick-Step are quite lethal when they set their minds on something.

I wonder if Bennett's disappointment was in some part due to the amount of work his team had put in. It looks like they'd done most of the driving today.

Yea, I think he’s a real team player, and he’s gutted not to be able to pay it back for the others.

I know that, and in that time he has gotten worse, IMO. I just don't understand why Eurosport seemingly at random use Rob Hatch for certain stages and not others

Oh Floyd

Watched the quest highlights and i think the production crew must of had a day off . It was badly edited and missing the narration of what happened .

But it doesn't even make sense. Sky have nothing to do with weed. Its him just trying to make some money off the whole thing cos he doesn't like Sky.

Just watch the InCycle or Eurosport highlights on YouTube?

Surely!

Much better!

whats Boy van Poppel been smoking?

Commentators for Russian Eurosport has just said he went only to get noticed/air time, otherwise he would've just been the first to be dropped w/o any fame at all

Dust, sherm....PCP!

How the f did canondalle miss today. Honestly.

French commentators were just ridiculing him, dunno if that's the fame he wanted!

teams with a stake in the GC obviously happy to have a quiet day before the Finestre...

How the f did Education First Drapac Powered by Cannondale Snake Oil sold by Jonathan Vaughters miss today. Honestly.

FTFY

poels in satellite move.

or not.

its on!

shipped 27 secs...

damn.

Yep. Tomorrow will be good!

Fuck knows how this will shake down tomorrow. PooMoo will struggle with Fenestre, Pozzo will want to match Froome, big question over Yates' fatigue levels if he loses this much time on a 4% final km.
