Looking like a feisty race.
Froome will struggle to earn you that pint, Adam

What was it again...a pint if he finishes
I'm sure he'll ride himself into some sort of form hopefully.Money back guarantee for Israel Cycling academy ?

Tomorrow's stage is looking good as well with cat1 climb and a long descent at the end.
North of Spain is still under the second autumnal storm of the year and there will best some strong winds and rain tomorrow

Weatherman just said Basque Country will avoid the rain, strong winds still on

 

[Adam4868]

No cycling for ages and now were spoilt ! Shame there overlapping in a way.

What's the chance of Hugh Carthy being a GC contender for EF ? Good ride today,just like the Trough of Bowland but without potholes

I bet Israel start up nation are wishing they'd put their cash elsewhere

Froome will attract TV cameras and TV time is valuable

Yes but they did distance a few of the other contenders

Carapaz needs 2 mins+ over Roglic for the TT. He needs to be aggressive, however I don’t think Skyneos thought that JV would attack with Kuss so early on. The Ineos train had destroyed the peloton completely before Kuss went. If you were Ineos, how would you attack JV? If Roglic holds his form he’s gonna win( assuming he’s learns the lesson of the tour and takes more time when he has the opportunity).

Lol first stage and Carapaz has lost seconds...doom

Not doom yet, but messing up tactically on stage one isn't a good look

Second on the stage and what seconds down ? that's a tactical mistake on the first stage of a three week grand tour.....odd
