It looked easy for Majka, shouldn't the doping screamers start to sound off ??
After all Majka hasn't shown very much up to today....
Or perhaps it's shows that different riders can have very different days going very good or very bad. It has always been so what I remember, so if someone have the good legs one days he goes for it. It doesn't always been a case of doping. Naturally it happens sadly enough but sad that the times of today always brings that into the picture.
Lol bro, are you drunk?

you already gave the reason for why there are no screamers. he saved energy pretty much whole tour (and he did the same last year too)
Thats what I was thinking watching the last part today, its very similar to last year and without him and Rogers Saxo would of come out of last years race with nothing.

Ive hit those speeds before when descending and its fun but on a climb that didn't have straight drops of the edge like the Tourmalet

Gesink said he was also planning to attack but Mollema did it before him and well, he couldn't get to him(we know how explosive Gesink is )
I like this new situation, 2 attack-minded Dutchies in the GC Top 10
Oh you didnt just say that......... did you?
Was just waiting for you to react
Well it's refreshing to not see them wheelsuck to a Top 10 but willing to actually make a move for it. Hope that will be what happens in the rest of the tour as well.

They do attack when they have the legs. But most of the time the pace is already too high they can do nothing but hold on for dear life.
Gesink had a hard time on the Tourmalet in my opinion. Then again, only 10 guys were left.
Same here..I also noticed that today..opportunist have changed to GT rider.
I do not know what Astana planned at Tourmalet..what Kangert-Nibali did was great todays stage.
