JoDo was 3rd and in best young rider. This guy never fails to impress.
Well that was decent racing I guess. Tomorrow is list as a "hilly" stage despite not having a hill in it. Empire Pass should kill off Tschopp, if it does I think Dombrowski could take his first pro win.
RIP Exxon Duke, David Veilleux, Double Feature, and Monster Energy
Sadly I missed it tonight, but the results look pretty good.
I thought Boswell was more a puncheur guy, or is he the allround package?
(he'll be a stagiare for Argos right after the race, didn't heard of that before )
Somehow I seem to like Dombrowski, even though I have rarely seen him racing.
It looks like we are following a future great of the sport here.
I think that Dombrowski could definently win tomorrow and take the GC. Levi might be able to win the stage (he suggested the climb to the race orgainizers so it must suit him) but I think he is too far back to take the GC.

Yeah, but despite his attack yesterday, he didn't fully impress, I think.
He's getting old, maybe a bit too old.
However, he's free to prove me wrong, it'd be great

21 is too old?
Difficult to see tbh
So today was his day apparently. Attacked and had 2 mins over the top just to win with ~45 secs over Kruijswijk and König who were in a group of maybe ten with Vandevelde notably missing.
Other "highlights" of the day:
- commentators managing to pronounce Duggan correct for about 15 seconds before going back to (Scooby-)Doo-gan
-camera work gives no idea about race situation (how about showing helicopter views of the countryside for some minutes while everyone attacks)

i think he was talking about Leipheimer. USA have a bright future by the looks of things.

Levi takes the stage but doesn't get a top 5 in the overall. Kelderman had a disapointing ride but finishes 18th in GC.
nice performance by the young Americans, looks like they have a bright future ahead of them
but I am really happy to see König getting back on track he is steadily improving after his back problem - too bad he missed the Giro. I can't wait to see how he performs in a GT next year

It would be dumb to say a 21 year old is getting too old, wouldn't it?
