There's number one. How many will follow?
Interesting that cycleYorkshire takes part in the chase. For me, Rowe is not even one of the 10 best sprinters here...

Nacer Bouhanni with a very good start here with a 2nd place ahead of supposedly better sprinters, he could definitely get a stage win.
The rest of the team was however disappointing with Anton Martin even losing minutes. Should mean my guys will get in the breakaway in the next week of racing here in Ireland. Was kind of hoping to create a sprint train but if Bouhanni continues with podiums then I don't mind!

Stage of ups and downs for the team, Silva on the BoTD It was a pleasant surprise but having lost so much time at the end turns out to undo what he had done until then.
kupfernagel sleeping during the preparation of the sprint let me worried, but its tail end was powerful and allowed to recover some lost ground... If he had a good position at the beginning of the sprint would certainly have discussed the stage with the top finishers
Avelino and Ciolek are somehow the disappointments of this stage

Stage 1 was wha we are shooting for in every stage. Getting Nizzolo on the podium. Nice work by Tom Tom.

A decent start with that 19th, Pelucchi should do better in the hillier stages
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Oh I guess he didn't hear what I said. GOOOO ÓSCAR! now we should be ok for stage 2.
I'll add my voice to the congratulations to Jesleyh. It must be very rewarding to see the best train show itself in this fashion. Just don't do too much of that, ok? : p
On the bright side it's very pleasing to see Figueiredo take the first 'King of the speedbumps' jersey.
Thanks for the stage tsmoha

Trust it was my team that screwed up the lead out
7th and 10th in the end is certainly not bad but I'm aiming to improve!

That sprint deserved a win. God only knows why a 77 flat Bar can't get us into a better position.
Feeling sorry for Prio, I hope the third time's the charm regarding your pre-stage press statement...

Pelucchi saving energy for the hillier stages obviously
Good work by Cerny. Making his NC jersey shine, although it means tomorrow he'll be wearing the KoM

Hell fucking yeah
This feels good. Vingerling is such an awesome leadout.
Had a weak season before this race, but looks like odds are turning in our favour now. Considering this is a goal, perfect timing

... better from Castaneda, got on the right wheel there. A wee shame it looked like he got blocked by Slow Rowe there, might have been a podium. 10th - 7th, a stage win on stage 4 then?!
Óscar Avelino - I guess he crashed when tsmoha might have been AFK. It just makes no sense from him to be so low down. |

There's number 2. How many stages can VanTomTom add before a break stops them ?

This is karma for you refusing to sell him to me. Expect Daniel to fail also
Interesting race so far. Top 2 are really a class apart, provided they get a good leadout. Avelino disappointing but you'd fancy him to join the party at some point. |

Well, i didn't notice any Avelino crash. But it's maybe an option, looking how he did today.

Guys, guys, guys... Avelino didn't crash, nor did he have any sort of accident. He's just bluntly ignoring my commands... So Óscar, you son of a rat and a banana tree, stop playing smartass or I'll get full caps lock on you!!
Anyway TomTom is also mocking me with consecutive awesome victories, but now I think it's time someone else take the prize.
Anyway, thanks for yet another beautiful report, tsmoha. Can't praise your pace enough!

Kupfernagel picked the wrong wheel and paid for it.
Avelino are doing everything so that his manager gets tired of him and next season will accept to sell him for my team
