phart Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Only Rogic Doumalin and Thomas left with 11km to climb, Froome and Bernal cracked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phart Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Rogic bridged to a team mate now as well. Can't believe Geraint Thomas is strongest rider in week 3 going up the Aubisque Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killiefaetheferry Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Thomas is going amazingly well. That's them reeled in the break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killiefaetheferry Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Just now, phart said: Barring mega fuck ups, that should come in! Aye, unless Dumoulin can take the 2.05 out of him in the time trial tomorrow then I should have about 50 euros to take the family out for a nice lunch 👍. Am watching in Spain. Been great to come inside 2-6 for the Tour in the afternoons as has been mid 30’s, but heading back out to the pool now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckielugger Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Come on Geraint !! Btw does the Champs Elysees also have time bonuses for 1st three? If so and if GC gaps are down to seconds after today's time trial, and with all main sprinters out, could there be GC fights for the final stage win?

killiefaetheferry Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 The GC will not be contested in Paris. Today is it for Thomas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phart Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Been a good tour to watch. all the stages i earmarked to watch were really good. The speed was insane though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phart Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) Incidentally a few years back the UCI suspicion table was leaked, this is based on scientists looking at the blood passport and assigning suspicion value form 0-10.

phart Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 So mr 60% hemocrit and Miguel my success scales perfectly with the advent of EPO in the peleton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parklife Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I totally believe in clean cycling now that a UK team has won 6 of the last 7 tours. Yours, David Walsh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
