Disappointed that my roster of potential hilly/mountain breakaway guys sit just in the bunch.

That Giro is just being crazy for us. Seeldraeyers and now Gusev, despite already being right up there in GC! What is going on! A small shame we are denying some of the other teams like this but, alas, we must to keep a grip on the rankings.
Though that was some TT, Porte not putting 1'00 into Majka. |

Vichot, and LIU in general, are going great in Cali. If Artur can finish second in a sprint then it's a damn weak field. Giro squad pretty inocuous, some great attacks and breakaway specialists doing bugger all.

Still no result better than 4th for RPR! Being let down by the big names on the team who I had hoped for more from

Just stupid gaps on stage 10. :/ But luckily no influence on GC.
I had hoped Froome would be able to already regain some time until this stage, as we're halfway through, but he's probably just waiting for the big strike...
And there it is! What a ride in that ITT with the ridiculously big time gaps. Oh well, now just bring that jersey home, please (and maybe take a stage or two as you're doing so) 
EDIT: It would be nice if my team would try and catch the breakaway in mountain stages, so they won't take away all the stage points. But then again, that is just luxury problems.

Come on, that's a fu*in' tour not a Giro, damnit! I've never seen such a long TT in my whole life!
Spoiler Don't open the spoiler below me
Spoiler OK YOU'VE DONE IT, LET MY ANGER FLOW FREELY FROM THIS SPOILER

Well, now Bouet's got more than 16 minutes from the leader, that's not a good thing considering he's lost 6 of them in the last 2 stages 
But well, I guess that 2 shitty stages just must happen.

There is no need for that. The point jersey should always be for the best sprinter and that has to be Kittel for sure!

I didn't mean for the sprinters jersey, but in order to make WT points for a good stage result.

Misunderstood you there but since that would help Froome in the fight for the jersey I must be on the side of the breakaway!

Pink Shirt Saga is over 
at least Majka managed to limit his losses in the TT, perhaps a podium finish isn't so crazy after all

Hadn't had some stages in a while so I put up the first part of the Tour des Fjords, I'm sure Bikex doesn't mind! Only a TTT and a flat stage to follow. |

Kristoff with some solid sprinting. Grabbing a stage win is good.
Lovely to see young Jauregui in the break on stage 1.

Two completely meh stages for Parmalat the first 2 of TDFjords were... But hopefully the next will be far more interesting for us.
Ah, Barbin is leading the KOM ranking, this saved the day(s)

Why the hell did I bring König to TdFjords when the two hilly stages end in a bunch sprint? 
And yet again my sprinters are near the top (2nd in stage 1, 4th and 5th in stage 2), but there's no win.. though I'm not so disappointed as the competition was quite big
