Don't think they will end the Galibier stage do you?
ASO should call Andy Hampsten and ask for his opinion.

ASO should buy a snowplough.....
For this stage: I bet Terpstra and Roy will be in the break.

that decision will probably be made either tomorrow or the morning of the stage.
It's not unknown for a stage in the tour to be shortened though, we can hope

Snow won't be a problem on Thursday, though. Apparently, there'll be almost no snow left by then.

HTC still pulling the pack. Why?
prevent hangovers --> stay drunk
pozzato, basically the most stupid cyclist around

Maybe the whole stage will be shortened and Cav will win at the first arrival in Gap. They'll want more people in the break to sweep up the sprint points regardless |

I hope there won´´t be a breakaway for a while. It´s much more interesting to watch then.

Nightmare for Duque. In the attacks, crashes, and fixing the bike takes an absolute age, now a long way off the back of a very fast moving peloton

Nice to see many Astana riders including Kreuziger trying to get in the break.

Did the break finally settle down? It has been somewhat interesting so far
Also what is all this about snow? Will they shorten the stage?

Not this one. There is no way they will reach the right heights for it to snow today. But the Galibier stage could be tricky I think it summits at 2700m in those heights snow, even during summer is not all that unusual.

I don't think so. They won't let go Roche IMO.
But anyway I hope for it.. Di Gregorio and KREUZIGER are in..
