The Comeback
Mresuperstar
@sutty68: Thanks, consistency is a good word to describe the action in Colorado so far by Travis. I still want better though. Wink

@lluuiiggii: Podium? That will be difficult, but not impossible. And if I would have announced the end earlier we would probably have a Mountain version of Man-Game Theo Bos. Pfft

@All: Happy 100 pages! Banana

Was hoping that you wouldn't make it this far because I know you wanted the satisfaction of having it get there Pfft

This is it. My final two stages of the season. I could cap off a great year
by gaining a few seconds to move from my 6th overall and into the top 5.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S6-Profile_zpsacb890ed.jpg

With a flat stage to finish the tour, this is really my only chance to make a move.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S6-1_zpsc3650e5b.jpg

A lonely solo breakaway leads us to the only sprint point on route.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S6-2_zpsd59a794c.jpg

As we start the climb a few poorly placed GC climbers attack.
Fox and Target - AT&T increase the tempo.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S6-3_zps42b7f708.jpg

The only late attacker that survives all the way to the top is Koen De Kort.
The man that is riding without his team. What a win this could be.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S6-4_zps338c03b3.jpg

It's not meant to be though, as the peloton makes the catch.
Setting up my attack! This is my chance to shine one last time.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S6-5_zps3c0ce706.jpg

Yeah... They weren't going to let me go. The sprint opens up during my attack.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S6-6_zpsc6d9621a.jpg

Fabio Felline over Sebastian Salas and José Joaquín Rojas.
Bakelants in yellow fades to take 4th.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S6-7_zps35624d6c.jpg

Talk about fading, I slip all the way back to 14th.
The mountains and hills here in Colorado couldn't decide anything.
Reminds me a lot of a cycling game I played as kid, I think it was called "PCM12."

Barring a miracle it looks like I'm finishing 6th overall.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S7-1_zps94b58cd8.jpg

Another normal stage with the morning breakaway taking us to the sprint point.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S7-2_zpsd88f7e8f.jpg

They are in view as the sprint trains start to form.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S7-3_zps779e23af.jpg

5kms to go and Rockmore is leading me out. I could use the bonus seconds.

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S7-4_zps6e3bc1b8.jpg

The breakaway is caught with 2,500 meters to go.
I'm struggling to keep up with sprinters, looks like no bonus seconds. Sad

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S7-45_zps27f1e62a.jpg

Too make matters worse a Frenchmen, Geoffrey Soupe, storms to the lead!

i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/mresuperstar2/The%20Comeback/Season%2016/Ep10/S7-5_zpsbda2d4ad.jpg

The worst possible scenario to finish my season... Shock
The French get the last laugh here in Colorado.
The crowd starts rioting in the streets.

No time to award points, I just have to get out of here before I get hurt.

The spectators are out of control, there is no other way to put it.

Security is struggling to keep them out of the team bus area...

@547984: I see what you did there. Wink I wasn't sure to use the .gif at first or not, but the more I see it the more I like it. It fits nicely.

@sutty68: Can't win them all. Sad

@welker3257: Well, there are only 3 episodes left so... something has to happen pretty soon. Otherwise it would be a rather lame ending. Wink

@maxime86: That's what I was going for. Pfft

@Jakstar22: 2017: When the world goes crazy. Shock

@SSJ2Luigi: Get the pitchforks! Just make sure to put them away before the last episode of the story. I don't need any "friendly fire." :lol:

@Jesleyh: I thought I would throw in an anti-climax before things get a little bit crazy in the last three episodes. And yes I don't know how the AI bug in PCM12 ended in that stage race. Awful tour to finish on. Sad
