Dan Martin

Dan well up there today. Finished with the leaders and even tried a little attack.

Apparently vector doping is where its at.

EPO is so 5 years ago.

What does vector doping involve?

Oxygen

Joining Team Sky…

Sensational scenes

Great move for Dunbar.

Getting closer for eddie. Superb ride today

Anyone see the signs in Clare where you can go cycle around with “sir” Bradley Wiggins. What kind of tool would sign up to that ? Why not bring over Lance

Yeah he was very good. Great stage today actually.

Hes a great lad. Would see him on the roads regularly around here.

He’s in the right team to maximise his potential anyway. Har har @flattythehurdler

Dans been training specifically for the TDF this season

He’s been decent in stage races this year. The route will suit him. He has a good chance of winning a stage but I think his top speed for attacking is not as good as it was. His cousin is riding it as well.

He sounds very bullish anyways, I was reading about how dans fathers had falling with his brother in law Stephen Roche back in the day and how dan has never sought or took advice from his uncle regarding cycling. Another motivating factor to drive him over the finish line I’d imagine

I’d say he’s not too bothered about the uncle. His father lost his place in ACBB in Paris around the time Stephen went out there. He was only a criterium rider.

Be Carnage here i say

Is it a hill stage?

Sprint. Viviani won. Was a hilly finish yday. Alaphilippe won. There’s a handy six minutes highlights from Eurosport up on YouTube every day.
