Tour de France 2012

Their full time job is to ride and to adhere to the rules around this. They have more help than any of us ever get. There's no excuse for taking in something banned.

I mean it's not like there's a whole shelf of dodgy supplements on the RSNT bus or anything.

Right, been out on the bike all morning: what's happening?!

aah there is voeckler!!
and kessiakov will sit in there or I will have his head

voeckler. hero.

Has Dan Martin cracked horribly yet?

Think he's sitting third? They don't have enough camera's to follow everyone.

Massive welt on Hincapie's left forearm.

What fucking drug was he on to make him go faster down hill?

Bugle. Known to fill people with confidence.

I'm told.

What fucking drug was he on to make him go faster down hill?

LSD provided you avoid the moving trees

Voeckler looks like he has had a few disco biscuits, ace gurning. He might "feel the rush" on the descent.

Gotta love Voekler's gurning.

Gotta love Voekler's gurning.

I thought this might be a quiet tour for the fella, but he's been spectacular.

And he's riding with no earpeice but a gut full of fight again today.

Eurosport commentator just summed him up quite nicely

"A world of bedlam inside a small cyclist"

^ that is good.

Jens looks like he's forgotten to shift into the 39t. Somebody tweet him?

He's saving it for later

"Shut up legs!"

#allezJens!

A tough stage: elastic snapped at LMNH and I was forced out the back

Evans >>>>>>>

Cuddles needs a hug right now

BMC don't look very organised. Where is TJ?

He should have got there by 11.30. Only chance of a seat.

Advert breaks in the middle of commentary can fuck right off. So unprofessional, come on Eurosport!

why is jens listening to his legs?

He should have got there by 11.30. Only chance of a seat.

I just got here - no seats and now it's raining! Fail!

@DJ - He's told them to shut up now.
