Tour de France 2015

True. I think Merckx max was 175 or something around there, then plenty of other tour winners who were 195-200+

Because Sky are only going to chase 3 or 4 particular riders. It would be a waste of time and energy.

Lazy Sky jerks.

I know. Had a day off on Monday too.

Is it confirmed that Phil and Paul are having their swan song?

Dan Martin has bridged across to the break on the Aspin.

Bardet is really not delivering for my fantasy team. Dropped already today.

Nor mine. And Kirby is taking the piss out of him. I'm really, really, starting to dislike Kirby.

Can you say that again?
Please.

Only starting to dislike him?

Great work by Dan Martin. Love to see him get a win today.

What side of the tourmalet are they going up?

My comments should be taken as those of an idiot. I have Bardet, Pinot, and Peraud on my fantasy team. And Tuft. I am seriously amazed I have any points at all.

The La Mongie side from Sainte-Marie de Campan.

It's easy for the first 4-5 kms then BOOM 10% average to the summit.

Barbet has heatstroke today apparently. Threw up before the Aspin.

jesus, fucking itv daytime adverts

Incredible climb by Dan Martin. Can we see his data? How are the trolls about that one?

What side of the tourmalet are they going up?

The are going up the ascent and coming down the decent.

On the profile they are going left to right.

You mean 'unbelievable'... Right?

Imbelievable.
Shurely?

Astana driving the pace on the Tourmalet.

Peraud and Pinot dropped.

Nice supportive treatment of Nibbles by Vino.

"Sorry mate, you're a mental - do one. Jacob - you're in."

Majka going solo on the Tourmalet.

I like Majka. Someone has to put pressure on Sky to see if they're bluffing, so well played Astana.

About bloody time Majka put a shift in, he's earned me nothing on the Fantasy TdF to date.
