Sad to see Kwiatkowski and Swift down..
Surprised to see Wippert in the mix, funny that he finished behind Bobridge, who looks good again.
Gratz, Avin. Nice race for you so far!

Wow. This double report was shit. Even worse here in TA...stupid crash and this in guys rd filler and now a no show.
Boom also out of the top25 fight.
At least De Bie wasn't sent back to help...
Edit: obviously not the report itself. Those were great. The outcome for my team though was shit. Expected around two top5 or here even a win and got no top10 even.

I will remember that for the next stage, I am aware I make a lot of mistake here to start with, should be better moving away from this race
Also I reported both P-N and T-A between the 15/8-16/8, so a little hard to receive feedback

Well that's a shocking couple of crashes there!
Decent result from Keukeleire, can't hope for more than that with this sprinting field.

Yes! (where is banana when we need one).
Our top project Grosu finally delivering first big win in his beautiful romanian jersey, time to remeber. Even better when Ignatiev now holds 2nd in GC, that makes it successful race for us already, exactly what we need in races where we dont have Pluchkin (so basically every race).
Of course 2nd in GC for Ignatiev (and i guess win of Grosu too) is thanks to some bad for to our opponents, that is always sad, so hopefully the guys can at least recover for next stages.
Grosu will have another shot in last stage, that one seems pretty tough, so he can use his above average climbing skills.
Ignatiev will likely go downhill in GC from next stage, but he already fullfiled his role here, anything else is just a bonus.
Thanks for the report sgdanny, the reports are great, so i hope you dont take my suggestions as harsh ones, just a feedback (late one, i know).

Dang what a chance for another good result from Cav, but alas no sign of proper trains and a brain fart.
6th is not too bad compared as said multiple times to Fat Gez. Still some crappy Romanian nobody winning makes me whine like little Danish girl
sgdanny mate great reporting of these excellent consistent MG pace is incredible lovin it.

A pity about Swift and Kwiatkowski, seeing how that sprint played out, you must think it was Swift's to loose had he been there. But congratulations, Avin!
Good to see EBH get through the stage safe. Hopefully he can find a great day and some climber legs on stage 4, which looks likely to decide the race together with stage 6. |

Congratz Avin - Fine win for Grozu, your new stars are really showing themself here.
Aegon not really having the best of runs lately, hopefully they can bounce back! Also big shame with Kwiat.

Loving the pace of the reports danny, exceptional work. Unlucky for Kwiatkowski (although a little part of me didn't mind too much )

Um - well pendlefluke strikes again. Cannot complain too much after KBK steal from Cav - but that was a mountain surprise that will have pleased the guys who went with the safer Douche bag classic.
The Red Bull guys actually did quite a nice job all told and battled to plenty of top 50 places.

Wow. Did not see this coming. Huge gaps for the early attackers!
And wtf Lars Boom. Who knew he could ride like this even gapping De Bie in the end! Without the crash yesterday he would be a podium rider now.
De Bie hopefully can stay in the top5 now as also defend the U25 jersey. |

WTF! Not only Kwiatkowski's GC is gone but Kebede, our other GC hope also drops off to help him and loses 3 minutes. Potentially two overall top 10's has now transformed in to none. I hate PCM sometimes. |

The Nibali win and mountain influence just makes me even more angry; this stage would have suited a fit Kwiatkowski perfectly.
Congrats Wacko on the win, and thanks Danny for the reports. |
