Did they put them in a cooler bag ?

Bet those guys are awesome at Tetris.

I didn't see them packing any slices of cake!!

Therefore, even if they ask nicely, I'm still not riding for them....

Well, one of them was coming to bits on the road up to Lago Iseo for the Montecampione climb back in May at the Giro. "Well they do get a hammering" they said.

There was I thinking Skoda was the only car allowed. The length of the car really helps with all that kit on the roof.

It's quite the roof rack isn't it?

Funny enough, about a week before the Giro started in NI I was queuing at a roundabout in Haverfordwest (Pembs) when I notice a large yellow car beside me. Looking across it turned out to be one of the Mavic neutral service cars, fully liveried and obviously LH drive with French plates. No bikes or wheels on the roof alas, but they must have been on their way to the ferry at Fishguard to get across the Irish sea. Not the shortest driving route heading for the Republic instead of the six counties direct, but I suppose the quickest as the journey port to port across England is nearly all motorway.

Hope they've got a spare gel in there for Froomy this year.

What happened, did the jag break down?

 

[MisterStan]

That's nothing, you should see what we can get in our MINI when we go away....

 

[Apollonius]

Mustang1, I guess so. It was stopped on the motorway up to Darfo Therme with people looking underneath. The quote above was from Scott Mitchell when we mentioned it to him when we saw the Sky team at Ponte di Legno a couple of days later.
Didn't they have problems with one breaking down in last year's TdF? I think that was some sort of leak.
