Yes G! |  |
| Ever since my son was... never conceived, because I've never had consensual sex without money involved... I've always kind of looked at you as... a thing, that I could live next to... in accordance with state laws. | | Poll: | How do you like your steak? |

Those few seconds over Dumoulin are critical. Froome will ride for G now over the rest of the Pyrenees. If G can eke it out to 2 minutes the job is done and we will see a Welshman triumph on the Champs ELysees .
Good ride by Quintana to take the stage | | | |

Fantastic ride by G.
Amazing to see Froomey blowing out his arse on the final km. [Post edited 25 Jul 2018 16:44]

Bonus seconds-so 1 min 59.
Flat stage tomorrow, one more mountain day and the ITT.
Keep it safe tomorrow and the kitchen sink to protect him on Friday and he may well be there. | | | |

I cant see G losing 2 minutes on the time trial, so it looks like Friday will decide it.
Col du tourmalet, One of the true iconic climbs. |  |

Sad to see Froomey blow but quite wonderful to see G hold on and extend.
And yet some can't watch because fat blokes wear Lycra on the streets
Just epic and best tv of the year
Please God | | | |

Domoulin is 11/1
Froome out to 16/1. |
And Thomas surely now has Froome as part of the supporting cast. |  |

What Froome did on the Zoncalen in the Giro will be giving both G & Dumoulin sleepless nights. Let’s hope he rides for G on the last mountain stage on Friday & G stays safe in the ITT. After all he did crash in the Rio Olympics when it looked like he had the ITT won |  | | |

Another thing in G’s favour is that the last mountain stage doesn’t actually finish with a climb and therefore time to regroup should he encounter issues whilst ascending. | |

It’s a 20km downhill finish on Friday. If any of the GC contenders have made a break on the last climb I can’t see a re-group happening. The last 2 climbs are brutal & will all but break the teams up. G plus 1 or 2 team mates need to be at least with Dumoulin as they reach that last peak. It’s going to be exciting for sure
It’ll be interesting to see how Froome goes, he looked out of it until a similar stage in the Giro then blew them all away with a break from 80km out | | | |

This is gonna be a tense finish.. | | | |

I do feel for Froome though . He s had it tough | | | |

Ending grabbed by a spectator isn't good.
Neither is being knocked off by a gendarme thinking he was a spectator
Spectator ,pissed up ,grabbed and almost brought G off . | | | |

I wonder if there's a radio commentary on this or if I'm going to have to deal with getting news updates via websites today. Can't say I've ever been overly interested in watching a bicycling event, but this has been gotten quite interesting to follow. |  |

5 live sports extra has coverage.
Great comeback by Froome to help G. Again a great finish to take second on the stage and a few more bonus seconds over Dumoulin. Has to stay on the bike and have decent, not great ITT. Still a chance of the podium for Froome. Sky's young Colombian looks like one for the future too.
Another brilliant mountain stage. | | | |

Bernal 's strength brought Froome back into it. For his first Tour he has shown he is a massive Domestique. Definitely future GC contender.
Well done Geraint for getting through that nightmare stage. Just stay on your bike tomorrow, and not lose 2 minutes and it will be THE biggest Welsh sports display EVER! |  |

Sorry...talking out of your arse there. Froome has won 6 GT's. One of the best riders of all time. Accused,but not been sanctioned for drug use. In Hinault's day everyone was on drugs. Now they are tested like never before. | |

Sorry, forgot about Joe Calzaghe there, who has demonstrated the finest Welsh sporting example ever, so far. | |

Darren knows nothing as we know.
Froome is a proven winner. He s been accused of misuse of asthmatic inhaler . My lad was kicked out of a judo competition at 10 yrs of age for using an inhaler . It's not performance enhancing . EPO use is a our ball game. Somebody explain this to Pross to save us from this relentless crap.
Now, Geraint wins so will Pross call G a doper .
Is G clean ,like he says he is?
I believe he is. Until then , let's celebrate his achievement and be proud for once of a genuine world beater .
If or when he wins his life will change as he will be in big demand being an utterly likeable ,engaging character | | | |
