Great Flop

I know how this board despises bikers.

Seriously?? I saw nothing.

Discuss.

Love cycling myself. Not a fan of the move but disagree with sending him home. Just seen worse over the years without getting a DQ. So unless the jury told the riders pre-tour that they were going to take a tighter stance than in years past he should be allowed to continue.

I do love a little drama early in the tour though. Shouldn't this be on the more sports board?

Bang-bang play...

It's like the F1 Hamilton and Vettel fued, they're both so smug it's just great to watch.

I don't want Sagan out of the race.

I agree!

This is a competitive sport, mostly, should the person in the lead just move over and lose?

Dude chose to pass near the barrier.. his fault.

Your comments make it obvious that you have zero knowledge of the tremendous amount of finesse, and balance it takes to ride a bike. If you look closely, you can see Sagan exhale forcefully to the side right into Cavendish's face. This clearly causes this magnificent athlete to lose control...

You are a dullard.

There you go assuming..

I ride 8 miles of MB trails, 7 days a week. I pass on clogging traffic and wearing spandex.

ETA : Continue being an athlete, riding on smooth pavement in a straight line. I'm sure your bike time in the triathalon has your fat wife hot at night.

Dammit you're fricking with me.

Sagan put him in the wall. This isn't hockey.
