classic1's Tour analysis, stages 1-3 in Corsica The Tour has taken a leaf out of the Giro's book. Good thing too. Froome looks good. By that I mean form-wise. He never LOOKS good. Evans looks good Cyril Gautier is a mad dog. That Tom Dumolin is a fuggin beast. So is Sylvain Chavanel. And watching him on the decsent last night, he is a mad dog too. How come Julien Simon is second on GC? I don't get it. Bakelants stage win was nails. Cofidis are the worst team in the race

When there is a tie for accumulated time, it then goes to accumulated finishing position. Simon finished 13th, 6th and 9th (= 28 total), Gerrans 15, 16, 1 (32), Kwiatkowski 29, 3, 4 (36) etc. -

What was that you were saying the other night Paulie? -
Social Media Savant, eh? A subtle pun on SMS or is someone eluding to disorders elsewhere? Congrats on the spot on the show.

Few lol moments.... first was sitting next to Nick Gates and we both agreeing I look like a complete [censored] talking [censored] about Strava. He's ace.Reality is that I hardly use Strava any more. Happy to have wedged in a Cycle2Max reference in there. Those were the REAL KOM battles!

Thanks.
Ha. Don't get me started -- not that I do much path riding these days. Wasn't there a bit of a [censored]-fight about it on the Bike Vic forum? ha
-
Dunno Nev. I don't go there. But I do ride the bike paths every day on my commute and really good bike lights are tres tres common now. I don't think most riders are aware of just how blinding they are... especially on a night like last night: wet and miserable when your specs do this: [IMG ALT=""]http://www.cyclingforums.com/content/type/61/id/287425/width/350/height/700[/IMG]

Indeed. It's all stunted and slow and dull in comparison.
