Haven't watched a stage yet so might try and watch this one, finding it difficult to locate any enthusiasm to watch the Tour this year
I know the feeling. It is still stage 5 and I know that all fun is ahead..and I am patient person.
It should be biggest cycling event at planet. But I am not even expecting that it will come close to this or even last year Giro. |

Agree.
Sprint teams need to employ hockey-style enforcers to knock those skinny GC guys off their bikes if the interfere with sprint set up. |

Are the Tinkoff team trying to sneak Majka back to a GC position? They maybe know that Contador is in really bad shape? |

Why not implement something like this? Only on flat stages which havent got shaken up in any way ofcourse. But with some justifications is it easier to find more positives than negatives with a rule like this imo. Could save the riders for alot unnesesary crashes

I gotta say Etixx's riding absolutely retarded stage today. If you werent gonna control it for Alaphilippe why not send Tony or Vakoc in the break. Completely stupid imo. |

Pauwels is probably more suited for that role.
Peloton have upped the pace a bit, no more sunday rides now. Looks like a very interesting finale. |

And if you come back to Tony Martin collarbone/ leader jersey crash..there Froome attacked Nibali..that he in purpose took him down. After finish line that thin guy still wanted to fight. |

Why did they use Anacona so early? was already working on the flat
Movistar will be miles better than last year though if they have 5 guys better than Winner.

Pereiro was a stage racer, GVA is classics guy. I dont get your hype comparsions..
Movistar work will cut it to some 2mins max, great pace. Sagan is gone too
