TdF 2017 chit-chat

Re:

Mon du Chat was in the Dauphine. A real monster/killer.
Will be fun for the armchair riders, not so for the competitors
 
Re:

Stage 9: Wow, what a stage. Won by the diameter of a tyre. Gutting for Barguil. Shame to see G crash out on descent off Colombier and Porte on final descent :(
 
What a stage!
So much to talk about but I'm gonna go for Aru and his attack while Froome had a mechanical. Is it an Italian thing? Him and Nibali both do themselves a disservice with that kind of sneaky underhand tactics. Can't take someone on in a straight fight so wait until they are indisposed by mechanicals or calls of nature! At least this time the rest of the GC contenders neutralised it. Well done to them. Boo to Italians!
 
Re:

Fundamental chaos! At the end of the day it's a race and Froome suffering a drawback like any rider could is all part of the competition.
 
Re:

awesome stage, so pleased for Rigo and his win. turned out that Dan Martins foot hit his mech during the Ritchie's crash which stuck him in that gear.

massively bummed about G and Ritchie crashing out. still surprised to see Quintana struggling on the big climbs.

really like Aru's win the other day then today it looked like he went for an attack when Froome put his hand up for assistance, glad the others shut it down, shows there is is still FairPlay in the tour, but if Aru did that deliberately then that sucks.
