At stage 16 of the Giro D'Italia today, Nairo Quintana climbed three mountains through rain and sleet, racing up slopes of as much as 14 percent grade, a total of 139 km at average 29.6 km/h, and took 4 minutes edit: 11 seconds out of the pink jersey to grab the new race lead. Awesome performance.

As epic as it gets-shame about Taylor Phinney at Nats though...a moto should never be involved in such a situation.

jyl 05-27-2014 12:06 PM

Awful for Phinney. Maybe the race motos should be Ducatis . . .

^^yowza! Byron - give us the scoop. Is this S-Works anything to do with the McLaren connection or is it just some P-Martini graphic scheme?

Q: Picked up last week this early Specialized Stumpy. Would you happen to know if these bars were offered by them? Weird that it also has the early bi-plane crowned fork. I actually dig the fork but don't want the bars. Hunting for a mustache style drop and stem.

what happened?

greglepore 05-27-2014 02:25 PM

He and one other guy were off the front on the first descent of Lookout Mtn at high speed around a sharp turn, as they exited one of the race motos was rapidly slowing in front of them and wobbling across the road for an unknown reason. The other rider (Lucas Euser) rode into a concrete wall on one side of the moto, and skimmed along it, trashing his bike but mostly unhurt. Phinney hit the guardrail, compound fx tib/fib with apparently some unknown involvement of the knee.

Was a race vehicle to blame for Taylor Phinney's broken leg? - VeloNews.com

A 2012 crash.

Those bars didn't come on that, nor did the stem or forks. Any better pix of the bars & stem??http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1401242632.jpg

intakexhaust 05-27-2014 09:25 PM

No i.d. or logo. Has hollow wedge lock bolt for the stem.

Took an early am ride. Some sanctimonious douche in a Prius passed me then did a right turn in front of me. He left with a dent and a bashed in windscreen. May he rot in hell.

I have his plate number, I WILL find him. The cops will do nothing. I'll make spaghettis and meatballs out his body parts.

Blinking strobe light front and rear.....he was on his cell phone. Guess the call was worth more than my life.

Road rash and still uglee......if interested.

Are you OK, other than the RR? Broken bones or bike?

Were you filming?

porsche4life 05-28-2014 10:31 AM

Yikes! Sorry to hear that JB. Wouldn't wish that on anyone. Thats why I stay the hell off the road and just on the canal trails where all I've got to worry about is some douche on a horse getting in my way!

Joe Bob 05-28-2014 10:47 AM

yep filming....local cops won't accept film, waste of oxygen.

billybek 05-28-2014 10:47 AM

Is the bike ok?;)
I've had that happen too.
Sucks
Hope you find him.
