Kittel will try to win the sprint stages and Sagan go for 2nd places and therefore points jersey. |

From what I heard it's quite windy. The direction of the wind is apparently not perfect, but there might still be a small chance of echelons

The question is, who can and wants to make it happen? All big teams don't really have the riders to set up a good pace on the flat, while others like Etixx will kill their pocket climbers if they try. If the Belkin/Giant alliance would try it though, things could get awesome.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

I am blogging tonights stage, so feel free to keep up to the date with the action with me!
Looking forward to tonights stage. Hoping Tjallingi can get the points at the KOM point and get himself into the jersey infront of his home fans,
In the final, would love to see young guns Marcezko and Ewan put pressure on the big lads tonight. |

Fraile wins the KoM on the Berg en Dal so he will pull on the first maglia azzurra. Quite an entertaining sprint that was!

Yeah, will be interesting to see what the young ones can do in this good packed sprinting field. |

Well that was an odd sprint, they all waited for Kittel to sprint which makes no sense at all as they aren't going to get passed him once he starts sprinting

well he was 3rd on the line 250m to go. Nothing can stop this man from this position.
Top sprinter in the world ..still is. |
