Don't you mean a decent enough day for Denmark, rather than a great start to the season?
Good to see Breschel back anyhow. |

Small groups today.
Could be an interesting mountain stage now with Fuglsang being a good bet now especially with Schleck helping him eventually.
Also interested how Sagan can perform and also Slagter should do fine there. Last year Visconti also surprised me, so it`s pretty much depending on the form and not the pure climbing ability.
Yeah...but if 1 pure climber is in form it's not going to be much of a fight. Just like last year. If Rodriguez is anywhere near good form he might demolish the opposition. |

Baden Cooke is on fire!
When Goss said he had bad legs and was not going to win the stage, this Aussie former tdf green jersery wearer stepped up to the plate....and the podium
Great result for GreenEdge, I hope to see more good results come our way soon

I see it between Rodriguez? Fuglsang, Velits and Nibali, these seems in the good form early in the season, but everything can happen on Green mountain.Maybe even Sagan climbing? I expect him to do good in stage 4 again.

Wouldn't surprise me either if Sagan stays near the front on stage 4. As we saw last year with Boasson Hagen.
But I still hope for Fuglsang.

You meant stage 5 probably (Green mountain). Stage 4 is an uphill sprint after a bit rolling day, so there he is the biggest favourite.

He had problems to even stay in the race in the first two stages, i think Greipel,Farrar,Sagan are the favourites, go Sagan!

I just wanted to add Kittel to Avin`s list of favourites.
Obviously too late.
Nice win there again. |

Yeah, i forgot him
Great for him, these two young guns are pawning the rest of sprinters, give them the green jerseys already
Edit: Even more funny that i bet on another rider seeing no Kittel there and now forgot him. But i have won a bet

Greipel on second. Seems to have healed up from the sickness.

Love Bouhanni. One of the most stabile cyclists. He is going to be a big sprinter.
