What did you want them to do?Originally Posted by tulip
They were helping by mixing it up inside the front section of the peloton and trying to break it up. Did you see the words exchanged between some of the riders unhappy with this move?

I did not see any words exchanged. I would have thought they would have gotten into the front and slowed it down a bit--a common strategy. Sounds like that's what they did. Originally Posted by SadieKate

I saw those words exchanged too, with some fervent arm gestures as well. Other riders were not happy when they tried to mix it up and managed to shake them off for the most part.

That was a lot of fun to watch... a very classic example of blocking for your teammates up the road!
