\Who's this Tolhoek guy who dropped TJVG, Majka, Yates, Martinez, etc...?

 

[Cance > TheRest]

Majka catching up with Tolhoek now

 

[webvan]

TVG can't keep up...

 

[Squire]

The home riders are surprisingly bad.

 

[Rollthedice]

Majka out if nowhere takes second, small gap.

 

[DNP-Old]

I can sleep safe and sound now. Well done, Egan.

 

[krakenKE]

Total destruction, great talent.

 

[mojomonkey]

Too bad they didn't show the clock as riders finished

 

[Pricey_sky]

Brilliant Bernal!

Decent rides by Majka and Yates too.

Re:

Yes, rather unexpected.
TJVG always cracks when he tries to follow the acceleration of a Team Sky team leader, he'd be better off riding tempo.

 

[Red Rick]

Honestly that was surprisingly boring. But then why am I surprised

\Who's this Tolhoek guy who dropped TJVG, Majka, Yates, Martinez, etc...?

24 year old that won the mountains jersey in tour de suisse in 2016 and came in 28th in the vuelta last year

 

[repre]

He will be better than Contador

Yeah intelligent riding. They managed their powers well despite not being in their best shapes at the moment

More than decent day 2 back from a broken pelvis

Hope Tejay is a good saver because he is going to be making a lot less money when his contract ends

Tejay is good at riding tempo on more moderate gradients at high altitude and has (or at least had) decent TT skills, he could still finish on the podium.

grande Egan! and super work for Tao!
pleased to see them going so well. Bernal will bring joy to Sky and to me

Who's going to sign him if he can't even perform at the ToC ?

 

[ferryman]

Hart very impressive. Majka good, Yates good. Bernal, just a scary scary talent. Would love to see him given a free reign at the Vuelta...

Who else is gonna lead Sky at the Vuelta?

 

[Jungle Cycle]

uau.. he ignored everyone else...

 

[Koronin]

Very good ride from Yates, esp if we consider this is his first race back after his injury.
