Watched it today come through Epping. Amazing crowds.

In between the publicity caravan and the peloton there were two guys in full Saxo Tinkoff team kit and Saxo Tinkoff S-Works bikes. They were not hanging about. Were these the ultimate in full on pro kit w*nkers or something else, maybe scouting the route :scratch:

If they didn't have a number they probably weren't in the race. There were quite a few "teams" of cock strokers tagging on the back end when some of the official riders hadn't yet come through where we were stood.

I know they weren't in the race. I just thought it strange for 2x pro kit w*nkers in 2014 kit to be riding 2x 2014 £10k team Tarmacs, at pace, together.

All the Big Guns are crashing out this year :shock:

The tour claiming Contador as it's latest victim... and just 5 days after Froome's withdrawal.

And continued on for 18km!

Did you see Sagan's no-handed wheelie across the finish line? Lad.

Possibly Oleg Tinkov who owns the team, he rode most of the Giro this year, http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/video-o ... talia-ride
He rides at the training camp with the team as well, loves getting involved.

As for Contadour, his frame cracked according to the photos I seen on tv
