I know what a bob and Terry is ..... fark I'm.old

I might be older. I can remember the episode.

Might have been shown on UK Gold/Dave or similar though, but I remember the The Likely Lads in general from the first time round.

I have a feeling that we'll see Visma's bully boy tactics pay off today with Vingegaard dropping Pogacar on the Madeleine and bridging to at least one satellite rider waiting at the bottom to tow him to the foot of Col de la Loze.

 

[Blazing Saddles]

For both today and tomorrow, the weather remains cooler and unsettled with a moderate risk of thunderstorms.
We could be in for some tricky descending.

Reading that Carlos Rodríguez has abandoned the race....pelvic fracture from yesterday's crashes.
Get well soon !

Needs to ask himself the question: what would G do?

Pogacar on today's stage (Stage 17 press conference):
"I hope they'll push the stage, join the breakaways, and raise the pace on the first or second climb. But especially on the Col de la Loze, they'll go all out. I'll be waiting for them; I'll be ready"
Bring it on 😁

The sting in the Likely Lads tale is that if you recorded the cycling on Eurosport, there's every chance you'd end up with ice skating anyhow.

or all this attacking could catch up with him and he gets countered and Pog, Rog, Lippo and OO ride him off the podium.

Given how he tried on Ventoux, I think he will try something desperate today, he needs 4mins+ today or tomorrow

Rodriguez has already fallen off and injured himself in a freak accident that wasn't his fault, what more do you want?

To be fair, when Thomas fractured his pelvis in 2013 he had a couple of weeks to get himself ready for the alps.

Was he in the big crash before the sprint or was it another one ?

Was he in the big crash before the sprint or was it another one ?

Watched it late last night ....from what I remember he went down twice,think the crash at the end was the worst for him.
Also saw a clip where he came off after the finish after tangling wth a photographer !
Also out of the Vuelta and Worlds ....☹️
