All these climbs are really hard. It's fun to watch. 
This stage could have been so much better if the peleton actually tried to race it, they took it quite easy. Bit of a shame. Still pretty nice watch.

Seems Farrar is out aswell, after what I heard.
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

Too bad they're not in the mood to race today. Awesome stage ruined by the riders' passivity. :/

This will be an interesting battle for the pink jersey.
Rubiano, Malori and Golas could all take it.

If the peloton gains another half minute, Hesjedal takes pink!

Well done Rubiano.
Malori takes the lead.

This stage sucked. And Hesjedal falls short of pink jersey. |

Not for long though. Should expect tomorrow the jersey goes to either Hesjedal or Rodriguez.

Gotta be Hesjedal. If Hesjedal is dropped tomorrow he'll lose eons when the serious climbing begins.

Don't forget the bonus seconds Rodriguez can win if he wins tomorrow. |

I expect another successful breakaway tomorrow. The mountain stages in the first week are often quite boring, without any real attacks.
