man this guy is just putting out some serious power right now. I really think the break could have held off is they didn't mess around but damn.. this guy is serious. of course in the mountains things will change but he is making this race exciting.


WOW:D

It's sort of rude to title your thread like that. It's not a dead giveaway, but it drops a pretty big hint as to who won. Why don't you just give a general title and include "spoiler" in the there, and then say what you want in the actual body?

i think he stole one of those push to pass buttons from the indy cars and stuck it to his handlebars...

Ehh, spoilers can wind up in just about any TdF subforum thread. Usually where you least expect 'em. ;)

If you don't want to know, don't read the forum....

Clever. Except maybe I want to talk about the Tour. There is more to it than who won today. If people can just get through their heads such a simple act of courtesy, there would be no problem. And if you don't like my comments, don't read the forum....

I agree, if I didn't see the end of the race, the title of this thread would have definitely ruined for me.

Quit freakin whining....gawd I am tired of all the whiners in these forums.

To the OP: Ask a mod to rename the title of your thread so the whiners don't have their surprise ruined and whine even more than usual.

And yeah, Cancellara is having a great tour so far...and his stage win today was too cool. :D

Did you see the end?

i say people shouldn't read this forum if they don't want to know who wins. i mean seriously, what the hell else are we going to talk about besides the finish of the race.

+1, on all points. later.

Best stage so far, I was convinced the break was going to stay away especially with some corners in the final couple of kilometres, but Willems kept attacking and they lost their cohesion. Under the flamme rouge everything looked like it had gone perfectly to plan but then Cancellara decides to make my day and hold off an entire peloton for maybe 900m. Very impressive stuff, would have preferred if one of the two initial break riders managed to hold out though, Vogondy in particular was looking strong.

Excellent tour so far - a complete domination in the prologue, Mcewens last gasp win, Quick Step's 1-2 and now today.

It's not a dead giveaway

It is if you're not brain dead.

Thanks guys. I didn't really want to watch today's stage when I got home anyway. As for just "don't read the forum" that is kind of hard when threads get reported. I went ahead and retitled the thread so it isn't ruined for others.

Any idiot (mods excluded) who comes to the TDF forum without having seen the stage yet deserves what he/she gets.

Sorry about the title for those who did not watch it yet. But I'm sitting here on the couch in my bib shorts and sandles drinking a cafe watching the tour and got overly excited about such a dramatic ending.

No i did not ride today, simply wearing bibs for the tour... the entire tour...

my wife is not happy.

Are your initials in real life TMI? :D

I don't see what the big deal is. I survive just fine not going on the forums until I get a chance to see the Tour later in the day. I think some of you guys need to suck it up and get a little less dependent on an internet board.
