La Vuelta a Espana 22/8 - 13/9 2015 (here be spoilers)

[smutchin]

Kelly & Kirby were speculating why Astana were chasing when Landa is in the break.

I tweeted Kirby to suggest that maybe the fact that he's leaving the team soon is a factor.

A few minutes later, Kelly & Kirby are speculating that maybe Landa leaving the team is causing friction within the ranks.

Hmph.

 

[rich p]

Kirby is having an embarrassingly inept day.

 

[perplexed]

I've just painted my shed the colour of that sky in the distance...

 

[perplexed]

By the way, has anyone ever seen Kiryenka and Nico Rosberg in the same room together?

 

[HF2300]

Kirby is having an embarrassingly inept day.

I'm losing the will to live. Please let him not mention Naturelandia again.

Time to go and do something useful and reconvene for the highlights, I think.

 

[HF2300]

Whatever happened to musettes? I thought you gave feed bags to horses.

 

[tug benson]

Landa attacks from the breakaway, then Astana up the pace in the Peloton

wet roads now

 

[tug benson]

Froome in trouble, dropped...

 

[smutchin]

Hmmm, looks like Froome is on the verge of quitting.

 

[tug benson]

the Dawg looks ready to climb off the bike

 

[ColinJ]

If he decides to continue, perhaps he should give up on GC, take it as easy as he can, lose loads of time and try to grab a couple of stage wins later?

 

[zimzum42]

Froomey's still pushing on, 8 minutes down.

Yayy!

Ya boo sucks to the haters who want to see him quit!

 

[JMAG]

If he decides to continue, perhaps he should give up on GC, take it as easy as he can, lose loads of time and try to grab a couple of stage wins later?

Or even better, support his team mates and ride for them?

Sergio Paulinho hit by motorbike and out, 17 stitches... They are taking Tinkoff riders out one by one!
