The Tour end, as always, with the Champs-Élysées stage and thanks to what's new this year is that a different race has already finished before the Tour peloton has even touched the Champs-Élysées.
so no Kittel, Sagan or Kristoff being the first rider to throw up their arms today but perhaps world champion Marianne Vos (Rabobank/Liv), Kirsten Wild (Giant) or Giorgia Bronzini (Wiggle).
but let's no forget about the main race of today. The men's race. the stage won't start until the first passage of the peloton, propably lead by Jens Voigt, of the Champs-Élysées. up until that point it's all fun and games, with jokes likes these
but after that first wheel passes the later finish line. all hell breakes lose, with the peloton hitting +60 kph average. which sprinter is able to take the most famous Tour this year. Kittel with two in a row or maybe Sagan, showing that world that's he can win stages as well or is Griepel able to win after 4 years of finishing in the top 8 or maybe an homage to Vinokourov?

Just imagine if Sagan crosses the line first, celebrates like he's world champion, with his teammates ecstatic, only for there to be one lap left.... |

Yeah, just like that. I'd also accept a wheelie or another showboating move. I wouldnt mind him celebrating early, just before another rider beats him on the line. just any funny humiliation would be ok.(i know it cruel, but he's just too goddamn good and succesful) |

How about Sagan leads out Viviani for the win. That'd be fittingly ironic - I lose but I win...

That would be nice. I am actually also more excited for the womens race. the races are different to the mens, and to have a womens "TDF", albeit only one stage, is great for the sport. Hopefully it will grow in popularity now. |

Sagan´s chance of winning at Champs is as big as a snails.
This stage is Kittels. |

Nibali to win with a Vino-inspired attack within the final kilometer, just as a show of defiance |

Not sure if anyone mentioned it already, but these are the legs of Bartosz Huzarski after yesterday's (20.) stage. Holy...fuck...this can't be real...

Anyone else going to be watching La Course? I'm quite looking forward to the rare opportunity to watch some women's cycling.
