Tour de France 2013 *spoilers*

[VamP]

Spoiler alert for bad joke

Wait for it....

Well, you're the only Vamp(ire) here

Why do you think I got all excited at the prospect?

 

[Strathlubnaig]

Oh yeah.. Lampre is here alright, Cunego put in a great effort some days ago... trying to make the jump from the peloton to the breakaway (when they already had 3m30 time ahead) together with Johnny... and being dropped by him on a 3rd category climb
Great and smart piece of racing there


On another note... there is a guy in a green jersey riding in today's breakaway, who is pulling the strangest of faces whenever the camera is close... why, have I not seen this interesting looking character in this Tour yet?

How do we assume Tommy V only pulls faces when a camera is there ? Its a bit like the tree falls in the forest question.

And even if WADA saw everything and called no foul play, you wouldn't stop the people claiming use of undetectable wonder drugs.

I think because I believe Wiggins is clean, I have to extend that to all of Sky, but it is hard to know what to believe when the field is still riddled with convicted dopers.

of course it could be that the team know nothing about it, look at the guy from Ag2R taking the diet supplement of his own back.

 

[Strathlubnaig]

Honey Badger for the stage win I think.

 

[The Couch]

Gilbert has some nice descending credentials (but will he be able to hang on in the climb? )

 

[Flying_Monkey]

Albasini for me. He's got something to prove.

 

[smutchin]

Honey Badger for the stage win I think.

Yeah, the one day I don't mention him, he gets in the break... typical. He definitely has a chance.

I'm cheering for Kadri now.

Blel, such a lovely name. His sister is called Bleugh, I believe

 

[rich p]

Voeckler is not the man he was

 

[smutchin]

Honey Badger for the stage win I think.

Albasini for me. He's got something to prove.

Well, that put the mockers on those two.

Hansen still going well though.

Rui Costa looking dangerous too...

 

[rich p]

I forgot Rui Costa was there - he's the class rider

 

[The Couch]

Don't count Tommy V out yet

 

[The Couch]

Still... Costa was impressive in the descent in the TdS, so they need to catch him before the top

 

[smutchin]

If Costa gets to the summit first, he's won this.

 

[smutchin]

Don't count Tommy V out yet

And he's off!
