Tour de France Stage 6 - SPOILER

[Sonofpear]

Yeah that was a great finish from EBH, there defo improving. Been up near the front for every stage and today it paid off. Like you said they are still young and things can only get better.

Poor lad. He was bricking himself in the interview. Kept saying 'very nice'. Looked like a ventriloquists dummy, the way he spoke.

Great finish though. The guy's strong as an ox.

Exciting finish, not sure I can take too many like that as the ticker is already dodgy! Most enjoyable stage overall, weather conditions obviously spicing things up. I felt sure we'd see a pile up on that last right hander, some buttock clenching braking going on there methinks!

Really? There's hardly been a proper sprint so far...

What tour a you watching then ?

FM discovered EBH, he was an orphan begging on the streets and he took him under his wing - next thing you know he's at the Tour de France. There is a film being made.

Can I be in it? I reckon, at my age, I could play one of the Radioshack riders!

I love EBH as a rider (and he seems like a nice man too), but he is so, so boring in interviews! Apparently he doesn't say very much ever...

Maybe if they interviewed him in Norwegian ?

Be a bit of a shame if Cavendish came over to Sky really

Great win for EBH and the whole Sky team, I hope they continue with their form and even get some more podium exposure. Another mechanical problem for Contador today when he had to change bikes during he stage, I hope he's used up all his bad luck for this tour now and we can see him perform well in the coming stages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know it's not really a patriotic contest anymore, but there are three UK riders in the top ten after this stage...

Now I just have to decide between supporting Wiggins or Garmin-Cervelo..

Indeed it's not but seeing where you reside thought you might be a fan of Hesjedal.

Interesting avatar, not quite large enough to fully see the non blue and gold patches. Anything to do with recent election perchance?
