Wooo Eritrea, look out Colombia the Eritreans are coming!  Amazing rides by Rory Sutherland and Cam Meyer as well from an Australian perspective. Plenty of time for Atapuma to try and strike back, but first blood to Meyer.
Though the way Berhane was climbing how about we have an Eritrean win the overall classification to make Quintana's supposed "out of nowhere" overall victory look small fry comparatively. |

Yeah, I remember last year (?) when Gabrovski had the leaders jersey after outclimbing overyone one the mountain stage. But on the medium mountain/hilly stages he had to go after all the GC attacks himself. Would suprise me if the same scenario don't apply this year too. Let's just hope his team is strong enough.

Good piece here (with the powers of Google Translate for me) on Berhane https://www.liberation.fr/sports/2013/...ane_897539 |

Yeah, Gabrovski, he had a very good juice back there. 
I hope this is not the case of Berhane, nice win for him and Eritrea.

Ignatiev. Been a while.
20 km to go, he has 50" on the peloton where Colombia is chasing.
Sayar and Seeldraeyers attacking. Berhane nowhere to be seen.

Andre Greipel gets one back on Marcel Kittel in the sprint finish. Still no idea where Berhane is, as he didn't seem to be within that group.

Are you kidding me? Nikias fucking Arndt?
Not even went out of the saddle once.
Extremely funny how Harmon and Backstedt missed Kittel dropping far from the top of the hill while talking Twitter stuff, so they kept mentioning him as the Argos leader until after the finish 
It's not like he was in the picture for 30 seconds with his name on the screen...

Difficult finish, but Greipel showed yesterday that he can stay with the front guys for a while on climbs. Did that again today. Looking in superb touch. |

Well that explains why Greipel had it so "easy". I might have to wait for the results page next time , or not cook and rely on audio for the climb.

It is great to see Sutherland performing well outside of America.

It ticks me off when they get it that wrong. I was thinking whats wrong with Kittel, his style is so off and then the commentators finally get that something is wrong too.

Not sure if your following the Tour of Turkey today but wow. Nice breakway attempt by Belkov (Katusha) 16 KM to go and he has a 2:18 sec lead. |

Favorites caught Belkov and the Peloton breaks. The race is open. Attack by Mustapha Saed 3rd of the GC. |

My bad it's actually the KOM jersey holder as well a rider from Netapp and Astana. Argos just started his train. Omega Pharma too.
