Into the Top 20 for Kunshin, well earned after a day in the breakaway. He will of course, duly lose 15 minutes tomorrow on hills, as is usual. Hopefully Pavarin will shine again instead.

Not a great stage for Colombia - let's all ignore our leader on the road....With a bit of help Rogers could surely have been a few places higher on GC.  |

Plaza, Plaza, Plaza!
From nothing now it looks like a stage win, top 10 and polka dots. Awesome

Really good report Ember!
And awsome ride by Lövkvist and Brolin did good too!
A fun race for Saab! |

Fantastic race to follow even for a neutral.
Siutsou and Plaza were together with a resurgent Contador amazing to watch all the way to the Alpe d'huez and the report was top notch ember.
Looking forward to the final stage most admit that I hope for Siutsou to secure the overall win, what a surprise that would be!

Very nice ride by Guldhammer. Not often do you see a Dane finishing 3rd on Alpe d'Huez

8 magnificent stages of reporting, nice job.
Congrats to Warner Brothers, that will really kick-start their season.

Another fairly shitty race for us. Contador clearly had the strength to podium here, but 8th in the end is a pretty lame result, because of splits and crashes.
Also Serpa decided that he couldn't bother trying to stay in touch, and loses 7 spots on the final stage, an epic 16 minutes lost on the stage winner. Pure crap.
Decent stageresult is what we can salvage from this race.
Hopefully Fothen can stay ahead of problems in the Tour of Switzerland, but it seems more often not to be the case.

Like most others. Great reporting. Well done! Can't put any critique on that, as it was very interesting to read. Good mixup of writings and pics.

Ach nooo!
Still, better than I could ever have hoped and some useful ranking points to boot, with 2nd, 16th, 18th, a stage win and the teams classification. Cheers for the swift reporting Ember.

It's a shame that Plaza dropped out of the top 10, but a stage win and polka dots still means it was a good race

Really great race for us, did not expect a 7th in the GC,
2nd in the KoM jersey, 4th in the Team Classification
and two great stage results, Lövkvist 2nd on stage 7
and Brolins 6th in Stage 6.
Bye ProTourraces for this season, really fun and great especially this last race!
And ofc thanks for the exciting reports Ember!

Great writing. Certainly not a bad race by Phinney but with other contenders struggling was hoping for more.

Good stuff by Hugenhaben. 2nd on a stage and 12th in the GC is decent, really salvaging some points there. Pedraza was crap though. Also, nice reporting I must say.

Didn't expect Bakelants to achieve a top-10 but I was expecting to win a stage. Not too good, not too bad.
Great reports ember, very nice to follow
