Tour de France with spoilers if you are watching latter

Well cracks splits and still 3km to go it is not over for anyone............
 
Another great days racing. :thumbsup: Simon Yates brilliant. 8) Rest day tomorrow, then game on for the final few mountain stages before Paris. Any of the top 5 could still win. :D :thumbsup:

Brilliant and surprising day of racing today

Tomorrow could be the day the tour is won. Looks to me like Ineos have it nailed on. Either G or Egan can now attack and the rest have no choice but to chase, while the other sits on. May not be a hard enough day mind you. So maybe Saturday. :wink:

I really can't tell how it's going to pan out!
The Tour has needed a race like this for years, been dull for too long. Alaphilipe is what its needed, even though he's a frog, I'd still like him to win.

Got a feeling he will crack today. Got a feeling G might too. Hope I'm wrong on that last one.

Yes, not a good day for the French riders. Watched every pedal stroke live and now need to watch the highlights later to work out what happened. :o Drama in spades once again. Sure beats F1. :)
 
The last day in the mountains could be interesting with all the problems that a shortened stage brings, late to your hotel, meal time not on time, sat in a car to get there (team bus has shower and changing as well as a comfy chair) missed out on a lot of the recovery then a mountain stage tomorrow. All the mind games as well and only one day to change anything.
 
Bradley Wiggins says he would have made them ride through the hail, across the ice and over the landslide!

How sad that he feels that much need to get his name in the papers again.

And he's a 'Sir'?????

Not a big fan meet both Brad and his wife (been on the velodrome with his wife not something I would rush back to)

It will be interesting to see how it plays out tomorrow is it all still race on or hold onto what you have.
 
Disastrous day for Alaphilippe, without a fall he would have got 30 seconds back on the decent ...easy! Gutted for him. To last as long as he has with not much of a team around him for support is amazing.
The Columbian seems like a nice lad and brilliant rider
This year is done for me...Bernal.. congratulations young man.
But what do I know!!
 
Bernal, Alaphilippe, Thomas, Sagan, Pinot...the peloton has some absolutely cracking characters in it at the moment, not to mention mighty riders. Yesterday was just crazy! The full descent would've been a real event but my blood ran cold when I saw the snow and hail further down the hill :o Well done to the organisers for stopping the riders in time. Has to be Bernal!
 
Should be a total blitz for the next few hours. Winner take all at the summit. Still half a dozen who could win the polka dots or evenings Yellow. Hard to see the young Bernal cracking though. :thumbsup:
 
Sat in and watched it play out.Did not have the expected fireworks near the summit.All credit to Vincenzo Nibilie ,he took the bull by the horns and went for it.
