Yup, it was RADIOSHACK in 2009 with FRANK SCHLECK that won last here.

Yeah, it's fine.
Just wrote it without paying too much attention.
As a Forum Mod it must be annoying to have that urge to spell check, though.
I'll reserve that urge for uni and work. |

I'm rooting for Costa winning the stage.
Die hard fan of Tom Boonen and Quickstep since 2004.

Nice job Hesjedal. Go alone. Get caught. Do most of the work for the guy who caught you. Get dropped.

He's just a nice guy, you can't blame him for this.

I have no clue why he even attacked away from the big breakaway in the beginning. Had he just waited until now, he may have had a chance of actually making a result.
Seems to continously overestimate his strength. |

Seriously, what the heck are Saxo doing? Getting TV-time?
Ridiculous pace. Even freaking 85kg Stannard is still sitting in front.

Thought the same, its weird. Seems like the pace is more or less the same as the Skybots'.
Rolland will eventually be caught. He was probably the strongest amongst the break (or Nieve), but has unfortunately played it poorly |

Navarro provisionally up to 8th GC. If they don't do something soon, he'll pass Fuglsang and Mollema as well.
I hope he overtakes all of them (up to 6th place). Maybe that'll teach them not to softpedal around the Tour's queen stage.

Lulling Team Sky in to a false sense of security.
Actually I have no idea, though Movistar's challenge to the Team Classification is falling by the way side with JJ Rojas currently. Radioshack are getting quite close however, if Saxo-Tinkoff even care.
They aren't even protecting Roger's GC place at the moment, as blokes like Navarro and Nieve climb over the top of Rogers. Maybe Astana would come to the front and help if they still had a team left, unlucky sods, with Fuglsang also being overtaken in the GC currently.
It is the Spanish Armarda of questionable tactics. |

Patience is a virtue.
Rolland learns the hard way.
I don't get why anyone would attack from 100 km out from a huge breakaway where several teams have 2-3 riders, when the peleton shows no intention of chasing it back.
Nieve, Bardet, Serpa, De Clercq, De Marchi, Costa or Klöden for the win?

still no reason for Saxo or Sky to start riding. Fuglsang has almost no team left and Mollema is likely to get dropped by his own team

Im going for Nieve for the stage, he seems the strongest. Very good at Ventoux and Alpe d' Huez. At least i hope that. I really like that team.
And ye, this stage is ridicolous. Reminds med of the stage Tommy won last year which also was very boring except for the last ascent. That wil probably be the same for this stage

Possibly exactly in that order.

Those hills are just asking for action, but nothing happens. |
