Just a heads up for those interested. It's kicked off a few days earlier than usual so it's easy to forget it was starting. The departure this year was from my wife's home town in Brest. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan "Once there was only dark.

Yes, I signed up for Peacock Premium so I can watch. | |||

that snuk up on me. Haven't been following racing as much as I used too. Sad to see that TJ vangardern retired. Guessing the US has no contenders again | |||

I was a big fan for a number of years. The doping scandals took a toll. The electric motors did me in. I'm done. Diligentia, Vis, Celeritas "People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." -- George Orwell | |||

Thanks for the heads-up. I’ll pay the annual charge for my iPhone “Tour Tracker” app to get faster updates and more comprehensive coverage. Serious about crackers | |||

FFS, there has never been an electric motor on a bike in the tour de France. Total media, hyped up nonsense. And can we keep the past doping crap out of this thread, please? It shouldn't even need to be said. Why people have no interest in a subject feel compelled to jump in just to drop a turd is beyond me. If it becomes relevant again this year, it'll obviously be a topic of discussion, but as much as possible, perhaps we can keep the discussion positive. Oui?

That fan with the sign, who caused the giant pile-up....needs to be publicly exposed for the entire country to know. | |||

Glad you know for certain.
Balzé Halzé, I do have interest in the subject or I wouldn't have posted. It's your thread and I'll respectfully honor your request. Diligentia, Vis, Celeritas "People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf." -- George Orwell | |||

Inexcusable. Fans have always been a part of the race, but egregious crap like that should have consequences. At the minimum the spectator should be heavily fined.
Then by all means, please contribute. And yes, I may have started this thread, but I don't mean to imply that I have some say in how it ultimately plays out. I just don't want to see it dominated by discussions of past scandals. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan "Once there was only dark.

Sigh. I just don’t understand why people like that are so self absorbed and unaware of what is going on around them. To say they are rude and inconsiderate is a vast understatement. I don’t even know the words to properly describe that behavior. Will she and other people learn from this. One can only hope. But I’m not holding my breath. That’s the real pandemic.

I suppose we will find out soon if Omi and Opi turn her in. I guess things are officially back to normal now. | |||

Maybe the fan with the sign could try that stuff at a NASCAR race. What an idiot! | |||

I want to see the rest of the video. You know, the part that’s shows that dipshit with the sign getting beat over their empty head with a broken racing bike. | |||

Or try that shit at the Isle of Man TT. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan "Once there was only dark. If you ask me, light is winning." ~Rust Cohle | |||

Hey, it can get pretty rough out there. https://youtu.be/eArlm3ukbVs
Oh, so very original. You must be proud of that one. Seriously, have you not bothered to read a one page long thread, or are you deliberately trying to be antagonistic? ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan "Once there was only dark.
