The sign said Gandma and Grandad in German - She folded her sign up under her arm and fled as soon as she realised what had happened - the police are looking for her to charge her with causing injury - the organisers are looking for her to sue her - if she gets caught she will be in a world of hurt.Yep, watched the replay of stage 1 yesterday and will be trying to watch as much as I can.
That first major crash.. fuck some people are stupid. I bet that spectator felt pretty small in the aftermath.
Gee they must be proud!The sign said Grandma and Grandad in German -
SBS usually have a day wrap video after the stage wins played a couple of times the next day - I always try to catch that for the snapshot of info - but if I am doing / watching nothing else and it is live I have it on in the back grounds as well. Love the countryside shots too - old castles and forts and the odd spectator doing crazy fan shit.It's a good screen saver. I regularly have the tour playing on tv, loosely paying attention to it. The commentary and banter is also a refreshing escape from the mindless trash that is usually on tv. Might even learn something along the way...
Yeah, will also be interesting to see how that plays out with the potential for Woods/Froome/Porte etc who are now out of GC contention to get in the middle of it looking for stage wins come the mountains.The Pog/Rog battle is going to be epic.
Bunch riding for you
Too much avocado smashing.
Also, WTAF... 118bpm average. I can't make a fucking sandwich at 118bpm.
Wasn't a total pancake but was pretty flat. How else are you going to get through 3 weeks if you don't have a few quiet days.Bunch riding for you
Yeah my point was less about relativity to the rest of the peloton (there would have been other guys who had even "easier" days) but rather the illustration of how far beyond what any average person can relate to these guys are. But SURE GUYS JUST PLAY IT DOWN WHATEVER.Wasn't a total pancake but was pretty flat. How else are you going to get through 3 weeks if you don't have a few quiet days.

Knowing full well that I couldn't!Like, yeah, I could do that if I just sat in the peloton
When I see the peleton rolling at 60-70km/h, I think about how I can't even get that going downhill sometimes..
