Weirdly I don't think Cav is going to be that annoyed. His tour has been abysmal compared to his standards
It was, and a deserved win for van Vleuten because van der Breggen would never have pulled out the gap she did without serious assistance from the race motos. Not her fault obviously but happens time and time again.
No comment on the Tour today...
My favourite was how Bernal got burst sitting 2nd wheel to Kwiat who done at least 3000000km up mountain on the front solo at silly watts.
Everyone was busting the moves except Quintana who just wanted to ride alongside and stare at everyone else.
These crowds are way too close and tight to the riders .
I am glad thomas didnt lead froome out at the top. he may be team leader but he should be supporting thomas with that time gap.
what happened with nibali ??

Anyone else had just about enough of the french boos? Maybe they dont like the tour any more. Maybe it needs to be held in another country until they sort themselves out? Sky arent the problem in modern cycling, the french are.
They see Team Sky but what they think they see is the USPostal team. They are trapped in the past, those days are long gone. Team sponsored doping is gone. Yet they cling on to this paranoid image of anyone who achieves success, whipped up further by the likes of Hinault. People need to start believing in these performances, otherwise what is the point? Do they really want to live out their lives not believing in phenomenal sporting performances like this years giro? Because that's pretty sad.
Funny how Landa, Nievi, Boassan Hagan, Cav, Boswell, Swift, Porte....don't get any boos! They were all part of the machine once right??
The cycling 'fans' are more toxic to the sport than US Postal ever were, drowning in a sea of their own bitter tears. "Why, oh why isn't my favourite team winning? Why is my favourite rider such a loser? Oh those naughty Sky winners, ruining my hopes and dreams. A bunch of cheaters with their exceptional work ethic, riding ability and team tactics"
Meanwhile over at Movistar..three team leaders, Valverde trying to do the breakaway thing and failing to reach the front. Gets caught and then immediately dropped by the Peleton and watches teammate Quintana go by while slowing to a crawl. About as organised as the proverbial drinking session in a Brewery!
