Tour De France 2018

https://www.lfgss.com/events/4179/

No-one has previously held form from May to the middle of September.

It is possible to ride 3 GTs in a year, but not to ride them for the general classification.

Wait- Sky being praised for fantastic racing, popular British winner, Sky staff showing compassion, Cavendish getting respect for honouring the race? What’s happening?

If anyone can, Froome can...
They appear to have nutrition and recovery on point, and they’ll be reduced competition (aru, Porte, the other yates?)

Rigoberto Uran DNS :-(

Only here methinks. Have decided to swear off Twitter for the remainder of the race at least, too much polemics. Even the comment section of INRNG has been infected.

Really? Oh crap that is a fucking shame. Love Uran, do we know why? Illness?

Injury from his crash apparently.

Anyone know what the total elevation gain on today's stage is? Doesn't seem to be a figure that's published anywhere.

"No-one has previously"

... might make something unlikely but every record every broken was a 'no-one has previously' moment. Remind me again about Boardman's 'impossible' record.

"Bias" is happening.

You're watching British broadcasting.

5678m according to Ride with GPS. I just mapped it because I've reached peak procrastination.

Imlach just said that the local mayor has banned beer sales on the Alpe today. WAC

Haha nice one. Would be a good figure to supply with the distance. Any reason why they don't?

It's French beer. He's doing everyone a favour.

Wife, baby, big screen and beer at home.

Same.

beer
knew i was forgetting something

I'm pretty sure it's acceptable for a couple of cheeky mid morning beers in the office for this stage. Right?

You mean the same as every other day of the year?

It's so annoying that itv hub un-mutes itself for adverts. It does it for each individual advert and if you just put the volume down really low it jumps up to full again for the next advert.
