At least they know how to handle a bike. That's something doping can't buy you. 
And yes, I would have preferred a big battle too... this Tour could have been a big big showcase for cycling. Kittel vs Cav, Bertie vs Froome, and and... but we are being robbed off some great entertainment.

I too wish I did, am looking for their jersey all the time but I guess he really was the one who went down with Kittel. Should be able to be around where Valverde is at least though considering he was involved in a crash as well, and actually in a worse situation.

I'd say nieve Porte been crap all year.
Considering this stage has some cobbles in them, then I think you'll find that Nieve will lose minutes by the end I'm afraid (although I really hope he does well)

He may get top 5 but can he beat Contador/Nibali/Valverde to get on podium?
It will be poor year for Sky. No one performed in Giro, they took out Porte and now this. |

I wonder if he goes for la Vuelta now.
Wasn't that wiggins? anyways of course he will.
Froome needs to proof his status and Team Sky will stand back with one of the worst seasons ever if this continue. |

I'm afraid Nieve would get blown away in the final TT  |

Pack almost complete again. Now it's waiting for the next crash to pull the peloton apart. |

Two Giant in the TvG group who got back. Could be Dumoulin and Devenyns though as well.
Or de Kort/Veelers for that matter.

You really need to watch more spring classics, SSJ2Luigi.

There's still the Vuelta if Froome hasn't broken his collarbone or if Henao is up for it.

It makes sense. Born and brought up in Kenya, you are not a British or English!!
I mean Sky in general. Take Brad for example. |

Well Porte was crook prior to the Giro so that plan went out the window. |
