Ca glisse

If that means what I think it means, then you win the award for the understatement of the thread.

Haven't heard Hannah Barnes mentioned yet, I assume she's there?

Not sure. Sadly, the official website seems to be both monolingual and out of date.

She should be there with 92 pinned to her back.

 

[HF2300]

I found her on the team list, but she's not been mentioned in the commentary and I haven't seen her.

 

[coffeejo]

It would be great if they could develop this so it was a road race to Paris instead of just loops around the Champs-Elysée.

 

[coffeejo]

Ouch. That had to hurt.

 

[HF2300]

Ouch. Are they struggling with the cobbles, the rain, both or something else?

 

[coffeejo]

Those cobbles look treacherous and they said earlier that the forecast was dry for this afternoon, so the may have pumped their tyres up to higher pressures than they would if the rain had been predicted.

Edit: feel free to add punctuation

Ah, I hadn't heard that about the forecast.

Seems to be punctuated correctly, but you've mislaid a Y somewhere. Don't look for it until the race is finished though.

 

[coffeejo]

Bloody hell, she's lost her rear dérailleur.

Edit: Shelley Olds.

 

[HF2300]

Can't recall seeing a derailleur snapped off like that in a while
