oh ffs. i was hoping Chaves and/or Brmabilla would go with that. probly they won't chase it down. De Gendt for top of podium.

Good stage for Battaglin & Rolland too.

How was your morning ride, lads?

Just the usual bi-weekly-ish "commute" to the welfare place.

Not bad weather but fffffuck I need a job so I can get out of there.

Important question: Who wins the Vuelta?

Wouldn't having a job get in the way of the whole being a neet cyclist of leisure thing?

Froome if he keeps his form. Chaves if Froome is shagged.

I mean, sure it would, if I was actually doing any neet cycling of leisure.

Ideally I'd have some something 15-20km away so I can have a reasonable amount of regular biking then go and jaunt in the hills on the weekend.

Sky is prepared only to win TdF.

Igor Anton.

Murilo Fischer

They've had three podiums from five attempts. Obviously, it's not their number one priority but it's not exactly an afterthought either.

for a team that can only win the tour they win an awful lot of other races

One-day races

Why is Carlton Kirby such a shit commentator? How does this man still have a job.

because he's cheap, and eurosport are cunts

He doesn't bother me really. His voice isn't particularly shrill or obnoxious and most of the shit he says tends to just blend into a background hum.

What do you guys want from a commentator?

tfw cyclinghub can't handle the big summer spanish load

I always found his banter comfy.

>VaE
>allowing Katjusha, Cofidis, BMC and Lotto-Soudal to wear red

someone that doesn't enjoy the sound of their own voice more than they enjoy the sport they're commentating on.

someone who doesn't lie about shit he clearly doesn't know about.

someone who doesn't repeat the same meaningless phrases over and over and over (de-ramp, focused climb, focused corner, focused descent, we'll see, pointy end, long game, negative split - used wrongly) and on and on and on.

...

Get out. Kirby is based

Eh...

As someone who watches a lot of horse racing, Clare Balding has set such a standard of excruciating tedium that Carlton Kirby simply can't compete. Even "yes, well errrrrr turd" is perfectly tolerable by comparison.

how was yesterday's stage
I missed it

>contador

Geniez won
Movistar train followed by Froome and Chaves
>Contador
>Quintana

Definitely check out the highlights if you can.final climb was really great entertainment

Geniez was one of the guys in the break all day, wasn't he?

Lopez fucked his teeth and his teeth fucked his face. Pellaud pulled away from a breakaway of six, got caught by Geniez and Serry but then latched onto them for a bit before dying again. Geniez killed Serry and went clear up a steep as fuck finish.

A comfy if somewhat dull stage.

Stage 2 was Pichon from FDJ who went to breakaway
Stage 3 was Geniez from FDJ

>Movistar train
seems like I missed a miracle

If nothing else, /vuelta/ is teaching us that /tdf/ was full of casuals...

The BOTD starting the infighting, they'll be caught on the final climb if they dont work together now.

I'd take a couple more casuals if that meant the threads wouldn't be so dead

>tfw no ITT stages on downhills with cobblestones

juan, why are you still saying "climBers"?

it's la vuelta, friend-o. nothing happens until the final climb.

De Gendt attack!

Because he's a poor man's Lemond.

c'mon thomas

The casuals seem to come out for the TdF the most.

Every stream I find is shit

Anyway I can buy a temp pass for this?

buy eurosportplayer for a month. 6 quid or something.

steephill usually has good streams

movistar on the gud stuff

eurosportplayer.co.uk/subscription/pass.shtml

I'll try this today if not I'll buy this Cheers guys

>that beach
dayumm

should sound like climer, right nigel?

cyclinghub.tv has some decent streams.

How do you pronounce "ironing"?

that's right, péłê

Is this Atapuma's stage?

2km till climbing boys

he's gone!

please Rolland do it this time

>Error 508. Resource Limit Is Reached

reee

It's how it always is. Doesn't help that some might have Olympic hangover from sports and haven't realized the vuelta is on right now.

something like iearn-ing?

rtve.es/deportes/ciclismo/directo/

This one goes well with me.

stream is down

this

However i realized the Vuelta was going on, but i was still too depressed to watch any sports yesterday because the olympics ended and that broke my heart a little..

Close enough... ion-ing

My gf pronounces it i-ron-ing

I briefly taught English and I had a Portuguese student who had no idea how to read or pronounce her 'n's. Is this a thing or was she a bit dumb?

Opposite for me... I quite welcomed the return of normal sports schedules. Olympics always seem a bit forced memey.

shut the fuck up, kirby

fucking tejay

>I think Calmejane did quite well in the Tour de France

whats wrong with gesink?

Tejay

Grand tours are long like the olympics :)

not in shape after his concussion i think.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA

hope the frenchies can find that second vitesse this vuelta

funny

>Showing the dick on the road from the helicopter
That must've been deliberate

Dick on the road. Which one of you memesters was it?

Gesink has had chronic bad luck his whole carrer.

>It's a penis drawn in the road episode

calm jane and angry phillip would make a good duo

someone cursed that whole rabo ct generation

It's s a tricky word for a non-native. It's I-Ron Maiden here in Brazil, even for fans who speak Eng.

was it out there for harambe?

that flappy jersey is not aero m8

>Lilian might just do it

I'll take it

youtube.com/watch?v=3aB6CPyO0Ww

listen to some germans butcher it

Aironíngue

...

Calmejane's legs seem completely shot

Nothing happening in the peloton. Its the Tour all over again.

TJ is now an actual meme, not a pro cyclist.

>>>/reddit/

should just lay low for a while

Atapuma attacks

how's that dope free team working out for you vaughters?
