made a complete arse of that didn’t you, wee man

colinfilth · 2021-07-15T15:23:55.020Z

Careless of Pog not to put the effort in for the points jersey frankly.

colinfilth · 2021-07-15T15:25:02.001Z

Well at least he had a go, as opposed to burning off a whole team, not attacking at any point and then coming in third, for instance.

rich-t:

Wouldn’t surprise me that he’s doping, wouldn’t surprise me if he isn’t. Unfortunately the huge command he has over the race (and the closeness of the GC riders below him), relative ease of his riding to gain that lead and his climbing performance are going to lead to questions. That’s cycling for you. But part of that can be explained by the race having a relatively weak GC lineup, his main rival crashing hard and exiting the race leaving a vacuum on GC.

classic Dan Martin. ‘I’ll start my attack… just a little bit too late’

rich-t · 2021-07-15T15:25:35.359Z

At least he wasn’t attacked by a massive panda
