I've got money on Greipel at 5:1 odds, which is kind of ludicrous really given he comes into the stage as second best sprinter on paper. I've also got a little on Coquard beating Kristoff at 2:1
Funny enough I have made the exact same bets today

Paul Sherwin was just touting the idea of introducing a substitution rule for the Tour de France so that injured riders can come back in. Why do I have to put up with these two for these three weeks?

"That must be a school over on the right hand side" It is a pub.

Coquard beats Sagan at the Intermediate Sprint. Demare decided too late to get involved.
All Sagan has to do is reach Paris and he will have another Green jersey

Yeah, Sagan will easily win this green jersey, might beat Zebels record in some years. It seems like Coquard is the only one trying to challenge Sagan

Yup, unless you're prepared to gamble on him suffering a mishap there really isn't much point in contesting intermediates. Seems Kittel and now Greipel too have figured that one out and will save energy for the finishes - good call. |

Phil and Paul don't even listen to each other  Phil talks about the Olympic rings being on Tower Bridge for the Olympics, then links to Paul who informs us the exact same thing.

Yes, seems they stopped listening to each other years ago, if they ever did. Probably a self defence mechanism...for that matter they probably don't listen to themselves either...

Here comes the rain. You didn't think the Tour de France could make it through 3 days in Britain without any rain did you?

The most aggresive rider of the day should be a really nice reward for Barta's effort in this stage.
