    The only real difference is he's one of the greatest cyclists ever and you're a moron.

    Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

            It must be incredibly irritating for riders that kind of thing and it's normal that he snapped. Every year there are near misses in the mountain stages, especially with members of the public running next to them. They probably think it motivates them but I'm pretty sure it's very annoying.
            Yeah, it must be so hard to concentrate.

            I was looking for the Guerini crash and found this:

            [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQgWWceYwbY"]Jens Voigt Rant on Spectators (Tour de France) - YouTube[/ame]

            It's got the Guerini one and the terrible Abdoujaparaov crash too.

            Jens Voigt is just great. Lovely bloke too - I met him briefly in 2007, thanks to Helios.

            He announced the other day that he's signed up for another year. Voigt that is, not Creed.

              FFS, it was meant to be a secret.

                    Emails? Didn't get any of them mate. I've seen a few PM's, but no emails. I'll PM you my email.

                        this should be a good finish today Froom, Rodriguez and Contador all in the group together.

                        Come on Froome

                          Froome blew up there, lost 14 seconds or so to Contador and Rodriguez

                            It's bad enough to lose time on the road but all these time bonuses really compound the problems for Froome.

                            Sky need to sit back early on climbs - Froome needs more assistance higher up.

                              I only caught the end of it but Froome looked spent there, could be a very tough day for him tomorrow

                                He did most of the work after Henao and Uran dropped back. Contador, Valverde and Rodriguez sat on him most of the way. He dropped Valverde and Rodriguez at one point but Contador just sat on his wheel so he slowed right down and let the other two catch up. Probably a mistake but that's easy to say in hindsight.

                                My guess is he'll be ok tomorrow but I haven't looked at the stage profile and as always it depends how they race it.

                                Wednesday's a massive day now. He needs to take over a lot of time out of Rodriguez and Valverde. Time over Contador would be good too.
