Tour de France 2014

My prediction is that there will be seconds rather than minutes between the top 5 GC contenders today.

:/

Tinkov and Velverde should form some kind of mutual support group for people with no class.

Very much enjoyed the expressionless interview with Vino-his French accent is so strange it sounded like he was speaking Spanish and he had the icy cold eyes of a killer throughout...

And a beret like some Brosnan Bond henchman.

Nibali now leads the KoM competition too.

Purito died a death today, a bit of a shame considering that's his primary target now...

ITV highlights commentators >>>>>>>>
Who is Mashka? Temperature is 90 degrees? Ads every 5 minutes.

also 'I can't see how nibali is going to do this, he has no team mates...'

Watching Porte go backwards was as delicious as a child's tears

Nibali's riding like Conty back in the steak days at the moment. Absolutely killing it....

Valverde attacking Pinot, cunty

pea

Hopefully, Valverde will get stitched up again this Tour, like he usually does. There are a lot of teams eager to put the boot in on him, should he slip up.

Awesome day. Much drink. So climb. Loads of caravan swag too! Even spotted a Brixton cycles jersey!

Genuine lol at Valverde sprinting for fourth

No-one forced him to ride, it was his decision.

Nibali now leads the KoM competition too.

Stage win, yellow and this was the Zuckerhütchen according to German Eurosport.

Fine, its so good I had to link to it on various social media platforms. I hope you are happy now. Are you? ARE YOU?

Someone better break the bad news to Pinot that he now rides for NetApp.

Appreciator gonna appreciate

Can i just say that this is going to be one TDF victory that won't stand the test of time.

How come? It's no less credible than his Giro victory on the Lavaredo, and as that case, it wasn't exactly the strongest field he was up again making him look that much better.

That said, he did look unnaturally composed/not fucked when he finished.
