Yay!Tour de France on the bike

Just watched stage 8. That's more like it, no sign of the sprinters teams holding the race together. Instead a break away followed by a brave lone ride. Well done Calmejane, good to watch. No harm done to Froome or Thomas. Stage 9 tomorrow, arguably the tours hardest stage this year, Froome to win it and increase his lead.
 
You fault @miller1098, I am starting to like this now......:bag:





lol drove that very road last year there's a little church at the top what a view :) but the road keeps getting better as you go up

That looks a stunning road to drive.
The trouble is buddy you've had a very small taste this year and they're going to be calling you for the rest of your life.Sarah and I are very lucky we love the mountains and the roads over them,and finding another is like opening a Christmas present lol.
 
If ever your going to watch the tour it's today breakaway crash and a broken arm it's all happening on some spectacular roads
 
OMG Richie Porte big crash on the decent it's all too much! I hope he's ok it looked bad.Hes actually married to our neighbors grandaughter and a really nice guy
 
Just watched the recording of all of stage 9. What a race! It had everything. Sorry to see Gariant Thomas crash out. I have been a fan of his ever since I saw him racing as a juvenile at Newport Steel works. Real shame he is injured. As for Aru what a ba-----d attacking when Froome had to change his bike. Good to see the other riders did the right thing. As for the crash that took out Richie Port, that was a really heavy fall. I hope he is going to be okay. The whole thing had Maxine shouting at the TV.
