Answering a question?
When Frinking speaks of himself in the third person i feel compelled to answer.
"How strange it was to see men doing something beautiful. Something pointless and elegant." Tim Winton, 'Breath'
Is there more than one Frinking?
That would be the first thing, I think.

Should we be afraid?

The non-cycling ones would be fakes

which version of english?
"Wizard's first rule. People are stupid. They will believe anything they want to be true or fear to be true." -- Terry Goodkind
Good point. What would be foreign in this context? I guess an East Asian language
would be rarely heard around these parts…

Huomattavasti parempia yhdessä,
kuin kumpikaan yksin. Peterillä menee välillä jotkut asiajutut sekaisin, mutta valtava innostus pyöräilyyn on hellyyttävää.
Ja erityisesti Giron aikaan jutut ruoka- ym. kulttuurista ovat hauskoja.
se keskinäinen kiusoittelu on ehkä se juttu,
josta minä pidän eniten. Ja pyöräilyyn liittymättömistä jutuista hilpeitä ovat myös Christianin eläinkatsaukset Tourin aikana.
not so easy to hide in white shorts
I’m guessing he’s tired, and he did hit his head very hard a couple of days back in the big crash.
He also never intended to stay for the whole race

cuesta and de la fuente
have a go
"at the end of the day, it's only the tour de france."- bradley wiggins (and majope)
Cuesta goes off the front
De La Fuente follows. Are we going to see JAGM attack today?

Caisse d'Epargne is working fluidly at the front

so smooth

souplesse nazi says
No souplesse for you!
The first cyclist to stand up to him. And he did it in silence.
For andrewwp:
one twitterer reports close run thing between Pooley & Houvenhaghel, another that Pooley looked miles ahead…
