Tour de France 2018 **SPOILERS**

[mjr]

Something white, probably a camper van

Didn't Nieve or Landa try that a year or two ago?

I don't recall. I remember Thomas knocking a few deckchairs over and bouncing off a telegraph pole.

Was it Froome?

I drove up the Glandon once - it was tough but I hung in there,

Was it Froome?

This year's Giro?

 

[Twizit]

I don't think they've got the firepower to chase this

'tis a long valley ride along the bottom before the Alpe - surely they can pull back some of 6 minutes along there, compared to a sole rider?

I'm not sure. Vuelta last year?
ISTR him missing a turn at the bottom of a hill and cycling between some caravans

Haha remember it well

Normally but there's not many who seem willing to pull, no one is contributing yet.

To be honest, the days are all merging into one.

I was going to nip out for a ride but Alpe d'Huez is looking too tasty to miss. Safe money is on Kruijswijk but it'll be interesting to see if Sky limit losses or blow completely.

Yeah, although I was thinking the 5 remaining Sky riders should be able to pull back something - but granted 6 minutes is a decent lead.

Although Sky have something of a dilemma right now. Not sure Froome will have G on th Alpe

It's not shown there but I'm sure I remember a Sky rider in white going further off, between the camper vans.
