My grandparents have come over from Spain for my sister's 18th which was on Monday.
You don't get a lot of free time when it's your sister's 18th (party'sB)) and then when your grandparents come over from Spain you get even less free time

Here we go, the Lautaret is done and they're on the Galibier proper. The real inclines start here.

didn't you see it? the moment they hit the Galibier he went backwards with this monster effort face. I just thought "he's going for the team car"....except they kept filming him for about 90 seconds and he just kept yo-yoing out the back of the pack and back in...
They never showed him again, so I have no idea what happened.
Bear in mind that, for instance, Evans was in the exact same situation on the Hautacam stage and ended up doing well.
EDIT: at the same time, all cyclingnews wrote is that he was getting dropped, nothing else.

Sneaky move by Voeckler to try and catch out Kohl. Gone too early though.
Wonder if Kohl will press on in the descent or, as more likely, drop back to the peleton

Nasty little move by Voeckler.
And that was very close for Ruben Perez, very lucky. Di Gregorios fault... |

More crashes... At least of lot of the edges have grass to slow the riders down pretty quick. |

Yeah Voeckler is trying to go It would have been very nice if he could succeed today, but i don't think he can make it But i love that he is trying As you maybe have seen in my signature and my avatar he is my favorite rider
