It's the socks, not the shoes.

GC Standings
>A. Yates 32nd with +51'59"
>S. Yates 43rd with 1h 11' 51"

This confirms my long held suspicion that when A. Yates or S. Yates rides as the only Yates in a GC (Tour De France) and does well, it's because it's both twins riding under one Yates name. Simon Yates rode the TDF this year, but what really happened was that he rode a stage, then rested the next day when Adam rode under his name, and as such these twins have alternated rest days with riding days going back a few years. (They pulled the same trick last year but then both twins rode under the name Adam Yates)

This is to me undeniable proof of biological doping

Why dont they try to attack vroome on this climb? Its barely any flat remaining so if froome is weak they can gain tons of time on him by attacking now.

>>78020122
Not too early if you want to gain serious time. Like I said, barely any flat remaining so Froome wont have a significant advantage from being in a peloton.

>>78020164
He'll have a significant advantage of his teammates doing all the chasing.

>>78020099
i get paid very well, it's just that I can't take a month off work like you lazy euros do every august

>>78020194
Not if they attack him full on and most of his teammates cant keep up with him trying to not lose too much time.

They can't attack both hard enough to get away and at a moderate enough pace that they won't kill themselves, especially this early.

Nibbles is going to get nibbled in no time by the sky train unfortunately.

Why can't nieve and pooels die?

GOAT rider Veikkanen wondering if Chavez will try a cheeky attack. I guess he might but he will just bonk and lose time as in the last few stages.

Bretty disappointed with orica desu

>>78021535
Poor effort

>>78021518
Lopez just missed a little girl in a pink shirt by 10 centimeters. She was standing in the middle of the fucking road.

>>78021549

Unless you mean he's going to literally die during this Vuelta, I highly doubt it. I'm eating a lot of cake to make sure of it.

Holy crap Lopez

It's pretty obvious Vroom looks down all the time because his fit on the bike is a touch off.

>>78022066
There is Tour of UK.

>>78022060
>better than quintana
Literally the entire peloton is

Ah yes, a time trial that isn't on day one. That should mean about ten guys out of 200 make any kind of effort.

>>78022089
Quintana is better than Bardet in TT

Noticing López is from same department from Quintana (Boyacá)
