Wondering if that total elevation on Tour Tracker is accurate - 3200m and counting is more than I'd expect for this stage even if much of it's at a steady gradient. |

Looks like Sky and BMC trying to get some splits. |

Oh boy this looks exciting... sleep is for the weak! Massive rear group been created by the split caused by the echelon of BMC, OPQS and Sky.

Think that's Hofland in the front group with Cavendish too. |

I thought it was 30k's to go. Then I realised it was in miles. 50 k's will be a hard task for it stay out tbh. |

Woah what happened to the peloton? Sagan missed the split with only 16ish riders up front with a 40"gap. |

I wasn't going to watch, but the echelons have drawn me in!

Ugh, what a time to have a puncture for Danny Van Poppel. Shame to make the split and then suffer such a fate.

This is Vande Velde commentating?
Looks like Wiggins, Ten Dam and Busche biggest beneficiaries of the echelon.

If Goss really is in there he might even get a podium today?

If the graphic is to be believed it is De Kort for Giant Shimano and not Degenkolb, looks a bit more like De Kort too currently.

I can see Phinney winning this stage with a late attack after OPQS burns themselves out keeping away from the peloton. |

With Mark (Renshaw) and Mark (Cavendish) being on the same team again maybe Gossy was keen to try and get in on the action and return to the days of all three being in the same team, haha.
