Sorry for being so late, thought someone else would've stuck this up by now.

Today we have Voecklers Colnago. I don't think this frame is especially pretty, but I wouldn't say no if someone wanted to give it to me for free.

However, that stem does appear to be going the wrong way.

Voigt or Sylvain to win by the way 😉
Then again, this is the fifth time a Tour de France stage has finished at Plateau de Beille, and the stage winner has always gone on to win the Tour..
I dont see anything wrong with the stem if its being used on a mountain stage or by a protected rider - A slightly more comfortable bike would be very useful if you dont have to worry about the wind resistance.

My wife (if she weren't out shopping) would be proud: I'm multi-tasking 8)
Cripes this is a hilly stage. Very nice scenery.
Jens having a mare! "**** off" to camera!
Jens Voigt down! 🙁
Jens Voigt down!
I feel sorry for the ground.

LOL. Jens now back on his bike, towing the remains of the cameraman behind him....

the pictures on my living room walls just rattled...earthquake? No, just @thejensie crashing #tdf
I want to see someone blow the schleks off the mountain, dunno why but they get right on my tits.

They barely do/say anything to annoy anyone though. And Andy is just plain cool.

commentator talking about LA's victory over Basso in 2004 on this climb- on the previous stage, LA looked completely knackered, next day bounced back with anger for the win- commentator says-'that told me all I needed to know, changed my opinion of Armstrong forever' - is the tour commentary full of coded phrasing? Lots of similar references over previous days to 'unexpected' performances, both good and bad.....
Has Roy been in the peloton for longer then 5k at all in this tour?
let's see who's got the legs now.
frank ftw (sorry wors)
Packs been blown apart.
Basso ftw. (no worries headfirst)
I think Jens is dropping the peloton
basso did look very cool and calm yesterday...can I change my mind???
Basso ftw
jens is one tough b*****d
what's happened to Schleck, attacking again!
I think I could watch Contador climbing all day, great style.
Cadel FTW.
enjoy DS you may get some time off from watching him 😉
Still cant tell how much he has in the tank tbh but yes he does have style
Looking at the crystal ball again Junky? 😉
¡Vamos Samu!
very loud applause for voeckler's efforts
Is Contador bluffing? We keep getting told he's in trouble but I reckon he's looking pretty good.
Schleck's got someone else's helmet on
alle voeckler!
Do you think my wife would be upset if I got a tattoo of a heart with 'Tommy V' in it?
Bloody he'll - did I just see Cadel Evans make a move?
I told you vanendert would win.
Where do these belgians and dutch climbers learn to ride up mountains??
chapeau Voeckler, that's the way to ride with heart and pride
Hmmm.
Tommy suddenly able to climb with the climbers, call me Mr cynical..
The Schlecks are tactical inept streaks of wee, who deserve nothing so far.
i'm absolutely with crikey. that tommy v, who knew? and what a team. that pierre roland, better domestique than o'grady, voigt and the like, better than cunego. what a 'performance'
You're out of order crikey!
Maybe those of us who watched his epic struggle in 2004. Don't disrespect Tommy! Noone is casting dispersions on Geraint Thomas when he storms up the Tourmalet...or Frederick Roy...Who knew?
Grrrr 👿
EDIT:
Tommy suddenly able to climb with the climbers
So you weren't watching earlier when they showed his stage win here previously??
Grrrr.....
Vanendert in KOM, Uran in white.
+1The Schlecks are tactical inept streaks of wee,

No sorry, I've watched too much cycling to act like a French housewife.
I reserve the right to be as cynical as **** when I see that kind of ride. I would also bet my boots on the fact that a Frenchman, in yellow, at the Tour would never ever ever test in any way positive...
I thought that was a tedious stage; lets all sit and watch each other, lets not even try to ride with a view to actually winning. It was more like a 3/4/J road race where not letting anyone get away is far more important than winning.
I suspect we are seeing a clean(ish) Tour... bit dull.

I'm sure you could've done much better 😉

Ah, I see.
I'm only allowed to comment if I've actually won a stage... Belm..
Bring back Lance, at least he had the guts to attack.
he also had the legs. Someone will need to attack in the Alps, but yes not quite a race was it 😕
