Anyway, while headfirst reads the stern email he’s just received from teh mods for such an affront to the senses, back to La Grande Boucle.

HTC will indeed need a little help, but I get the feeling that there’s a lot of love between them and Sky. And between them and a part of Garmin-Cervelo….

That bike’s got measles! 😯

Unclean unclean!

Run away run away!

Tom Boonen has climbed off. shame, he’s a great, comitted rider.

Re. Cav being the ‘most winningest’, perhaps he’s won the highest percentage of stages of the Tour that he’s been in? I think he’s just made it into the Top 10 of stage winners IIRC.

I’m off now, don’t want to see any more spoilers – shame about Boonen.

Sham and Boonan go well together.. Pointless, lost his soul for riding that fella.
Totally pointless entering this race for him, pointless and dissapointing. QuickStep should never have picked him, he’s pulled out of nearly every Tour he’s entered.. (scuttles off to Wiki to find facts)

Ok, BOT,

I’d go Far(rar) to say this lads in Transition..

Did you see what I did there, did ya’s??

Wikkid. £4, I now have Eurosport player at work. And I can switch the audio feed to English 🙂

Sod the cycling; I want to visit that Framboise place! 🙂

Have you guys seen this site?

http://data.srmlive.de/TDF/

SRM power meters tracking live. Go to terrain mode on the map, pretty cool esp when I cant see the race live……

(You all know about this already dont you)

Yes, we do 🙂

Well at least I found it before they have go over the Telegraph/Galibier/Alpe Axis of Evil…..I did that last year and I swear my heartrate almost went to zero permanently.

thanks for that mcboo. I hadnt seen it. Now for total immersive TdF viewing! 😉

Kleenex by the computer, Stoner? Classy…..! 😉

urrrgh. you have a foul mind CFH!

I think this is My New Favourite Thing. 🙂

Nice one McBoo.

That site is ace.

Shame it only has a few riders.

Crash.

bloody ads!

Ooof!!

No!

Wiggins down

Does that look like abroken collarbone for wiggins?

collarbone

Wiggins injured?

not looking good

He doesn’t look keen to get back on. Support riders have gone on

out

I think I saw the medic put some green screens up and charge the bolt gun 🙁

Yep, even if he does get on, he’s now stuffed in terms of GC. 🙁

Fcksticks.

Do you think sky will start riding for Geraint now..?

gutted for him

Don’t think G can climb mountains.

Anyway what’s going on all I have is STW and a text feed.

Do you think sky will start riding for Geraint now..?

Logical choice except he’s not a GC contender really. White jersey is probably a realistic shot. I imagine Sky won’t be too keen to ride at all at the moment, the loss of Bradley will hit them hard.

A quote from Bradley Wiggins earlier “Some of them cant ride their bikes very well.” Tempted fate there.

I cant imagine what’s going through his head right now and am not entirely sure I want to.

he is out today

Is he def forced to abandon?

yep confirmed out just before they went to the break.

Wiggins waiting for an ambulance. Gutted for him 🙁

Wiggo’s abandoned. 🙁
