Tour de France 2017 ***SPOILERS***

[Pro Tour Punditry]

I expressed silent scepticism when Marmion said it was a boring parcours but it turns out he was right. Possibly the worst tour route in memory

I am always right.

Accept this.

 

[smutchin]

I doubt it is genuinely the most boring Tour route ever, we're just more exposed to the filler bits because of the start-to-finish TV coverage.

I love it, test match esque burble and some nice scenery the commentators seem to be more relaxed and convivial as well, the interviews are a good idea as well.

 

[jarlrmai]

I wonder if there's actors who specialise in voicing dogs in commercials?

Dirty Bertie on the deck again, wasn't impressed the way he totally blanked his downed team mate, didn't even throw a glance at him before getting off.

Contador crash

Tennis was good today.

LS leading out Kittel again

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Not been able to watch it today but the BBC have this on their text feed


Problems for GC riders Jakob Fuglsang, Romain Bardet and Alberto Contador today.

I know what happened to Fugslang and dirty bertie, but what happened to Bardet?

Ignore me I've found it in the feed

 

[Disabledcyclist40]

How close was he from not being caught, one hell of a ride that

Yes, that was rather startling, wasn't it?

 

[Fight.The.Power]

Well this is the longest first week of the Tour. Ever.

 

[hoopdriver]

Possibly because we are halfway through the second week...

 

[Disabledcyclist40]

Yes, that was rather startling, wasn't it?

To me it's the reason I've always disliked him, yes people at the top have an edge, but to not even glance at your own team mate, who was CLEARLY in some pain, nah, that was bang outta order

I thought he looked at him once with disdain.
