real shame about the cavendish disqualification, I'm sure those who don't like him see him force the norwegian into the barriers, but it looks to me like the road just got thinner..

Re: Tour de France 2009

Cavendish ? There's so many reason to hate him, it's getting too easy...

But when you are riding you see the road getting thinner and you have to keep the same distance from the boarding no?

indeed, easily the most thrilling stage so far! Armstrong without an answer, though I can't say I was all that surprised...Contador surely has to be the favourite now; I'd like to see Sastre push himself to give it a go...quite surprised (but pleasantly so) to see Wiggins staying with the attack - commentators were saying that he was getting treated with a bit of contempt by the Schleck brothers for trying to assert himself in amongst it...fuck em! good pair of riders, granted, but they strike me as a pair of really smug cunts...

Re: Tour de France 2009

Contador #1. Fightin with the Tour de France organization last year (winning Giro and Vuelta),and this year against his own team, that they worked for Armstrong until yesterday

Re: Tour de France 2009

Nice one again today...good win for Euskadi

Re: Tour de France 2009

yeah, was surprised at the schlecks, especially when armstrong came back to one of em on the last climb.
another great ride for nicholas roche, fourth place on an alpine stage is impressive.

Pfff.. that was almost too painful to watch.. amazing to see his bike break under him and awful to see his face slide over the road for 15+ meters. aiaiai.

Re: Tour de France 2009

Le Tour rocks so hard this year. Hope Jens will come out ok.

Re: Tour de France 2009

was hoping to see Lance fall a little in GC today, with Wiggins taking 2nd overall. I still think we might see that tomorrow, but I also expect Contador to really try to open the gap between him and Wiggins.
So everyone hates Cavendish and he has no chance of green now, I really, really hope he will win in Paris tongue

Re: Tour de France 2009

this is really not a matter of his nationality ;-) but Wiggins... I mean... Losing 7 kilos and training hard ok... but how a guy that could cross a steep bridge last season is now in such a good position... I'm not talking about doping, cos this change is much spectacular... I don't know, a true enigma... On the Giro, he was already following the best, so in a way i'm not so surprised, but even the specialist are just considering now that Wiggins could end up on the podium
In fact, he's now the best opponenet to Contador (the only one with Kloden that could probably take some time to Contador on the time trial among the top ranked). So let's see...
Poor Voigt, might end his great career on that... arrr, it was horible to see...

Re: Tour de France 2009

ooof, Voigt just got a cheekbone fracture...
complete stage today, starting really soon...

Re: Tour de France 2009

yep im watching right now. they probably gonna go at it from the start.

Re: Tour de France 2009

i like cavendish but chapeau to Hushovd, cycling over a 1st category climb 1min 30 seconds ahead of the chasing group and 5 mins ahead of the peleton!

Re: Tour de France 2009
