Greipel really is a gorilla. Great job by him, getting his 100th Professional Victory.
Any video of the sprint?
btw, for future races, where do you get those videos so fast sometimes? Just youtube or is there some sort of secret video-cycling site?

Well, I find them at youtube all the time... If a video abiout TDU is posted here, it's most of the time directly from youtube I guess
Big well done Thomas! Really fought it out for the two sprints and ended at end of the stage on impressive 6th as well which earned him points jersey as well 3rd in GC. Great fight!
And of course Slagter impressed. Deserved win. Not to even mention Greipel Edited by Alakagom on 27-01-2013 10:40

DNF Andy Schleck... what a surprise...
Did he crash or was it again some kind of "I just dont finish any race I m not interested again..." ?
I think it was the latter option... I mean, he did finish yesterday's stage with the sprinters... and De Gendt.
And yet again, a top-10 start for Tiago Machado, hope he can shine in the week long races this season.

Mechanical midway through the stage, and the speed of the peloton would've never allowed him to get back, 1h53 for 90k on a circuit course says it all.
Something interesting is going on in Vacansoleil's sprint results:
Tour Down Under, Stage 6: Adelaide, circuit race
8
Barry Markus
Vacansoleil - DCM Pro Cycling Team
9
Yauheni Hutarovich
Ag2r - La Mondiale
10
Kenny van Hummel
Vacansoleil - DCM Pro Cycling Team
This is the second time Markus has finished before Van Hummel. It kind of looks like Van Hummel has been leading out for Markus, a complete reverse of the standard roles you'd think they would take.
Maybe Markus will be given a chance to prove himself this season? Who knows.

Maybe. Markus looks kinda promising though, didn't expect him to be able to sprint that strong...
