Hoping for better luck than yesterday - I was driving back from oop north in the afternoon and did not listen to the radio to avoid any Tour updates - then settled down to watch a recording of the afternoon ITV4 show .......... I watched a fair amount of it, skipping adverts and some of the middle sections - took it through to the building climax, through the 1K took it through to almost the last corner - then ......... the end of the recording.
The flaming wind had made the stage take longer than predicted.
Classic.
It was a tremendous finish - but I miss the htc train. I understood that - and it was a line of beauty.

Well as mentals as predicted.
I thought Brad got 'lucky' again. He just shouldn't be back there, that would have been marginal losses, without the crash.
Nice intermediate from Cav, handing out a cracking mouthful as he crosses the line at 40+mph. Pure class.
I think between us NSC called that stage pretty well.
We are a bit good at this, chaps.

I'm maintaining my fantasy groove.
Gilbert back out Cav back in!
I've also knocked out Giovanni Bernaudeau in favour of Bouet.
Fingers crossed I can squeeze Matt Goss in, this time tomorrow, and I won't be a day late.
I think he's got the speed to be the first to 'do' Cav.

No great surprise he didn't look good on the side of the road.

Lucky it's a marathon and not a sprint.
My bubble with burst over the weekend.
Not so sure about 1066's though, he has proper form. (assuming he is memories of meseeuw)

Another brilliant stage to watch today, barring sky's bad news of course -nasty. Loving Chavanel's attack. I had EBH in for Cav today, however ended up going back to it with what I thought was a master strike of cancellara out for gilbert - a master stroke that cost me 35pts

Really bad news not just for his season but for Team Sky's assault on the Tour. Big spanner in works, hands one over to BMC.

It's a small setback but not the end of the world. Rogers, from, porter all far more important.

What don't the peleton like ?
Peter Sagan's over exuberance at the finsih line.
I don't mind it. I just hope he's clean...
