Morning all
I think I may just watch the whole shebang on Le Tour today, looks interesting as over 4,000 metres of climbing,
Think another
Enjoy your Sunday![]()
Night ride?Feeling all warm and fuzzy, so can't sleep. Need a cuppa, I think.
Get the bimbles before @welsh dragon & @Mo1959!No. I was just chatting with someone. Not had a proper night ride for a while actually. I will do that later in the week.
I think the organisers should take a long hard look at themselves, as soon as I saw trees down that descent, I thought no esp after they mentioned the previous rain but then the riders should have known the conditions, it's a high-risk sport and dangerous, it t6akes one small error and Porte's crash then nearly taking out the Martin fella highlights but I wish they would stop showing repeats after repeat, continental TV is bad for that.One hell of a stage, it had everything, it was brilliant in terms of racing.
Just have to cast a thought to the poor lads who crashed and hope they recover quickly, and also to the 10 that failed to make the time cut after that slog.
Tell me about it. Three years now and I still have flashbacks of that few seconds knowing how hard I was going to hit the ground and then the sickening pain and nausea as I lay there not knowing how much damage I had done. Certainly makes you more cautious., amazing.
I feared the worst for the lad.
It goes on...and brings home the danger the amateur or us bimbling cyclist potentially have.
Take care out there.
