GCN re-posted this picture, originally posted by a fan:

and beside it, they wrote: 'We reckon a few fans feel like this the day after the Tour of Flanders'

What do they mean? Maybe I'm just thick, but I don't get it. I watched the last hour of the Tour, and thought it, and the result, was quite good. Or is it that people are now looking forward to Paris-Roubaix, and are just hanging on?

What am I missing?

If you rotate the picture 90 degrees clockwise then it makes more sense.

Not really. Sagan was comfortably ahead of everyone for the whole time I watched.

What about those of us who have autorotate on?

Sagan was at full gas, he stayed away and did in the end win comfortably, but there was a time when Fabi put a massive effort in and got to within 12 seconds of Sagan. If Vanmarcke hadn't been spent they might, just, have caught him. It was pretty much a nearly there, nearly there, nearly there - YES ending.

That's weed growing in that hole. So its all to do with drugs in the sport and the winner reaching for the drugs 🙂

His reach for drugs means his bike is irrelevant so he can drag it behind him.

Both Vanmarcke & Fabulous were spent, did you see the interview afterwards? Utterly shattered both of them.
Great to see challenge on spirit and guts to the end.

Sags rode a cracker, no doubt, but the chase on by these two was exceptional.

I think they might be referring to the fact that quite a lot a beer is drunk by fans watching Flanders. So "hanging"/hangover reference?

You will just have to rotate your head anticlockwise instead. 135 deg.
