[Climbing]

Menchov is still conspicuously absent from the MJ group.

Last climb now

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Cmon Kiserlovski!!

 

[Montanus]

Vasil: diesel on.

 

[Armanius]

Glad to see Evans give it a go today with a bold move, even if it failed. Let's see what happens in the last climb.

Sky is amazing. The train is still intact. Are they THAT strong, or was the Evans BMC group just that weak, and unable to make Sky work into the red?

Cmon Kiserlovski!!

Yep, looks the strongest of the bunch.

 

[superconfex]

Rolland is such a class act..come on son. Do it for France

 

[Big Doopie]

Evans was weak. Tejay kept inadvertently dropping him on their attack, otherwise it might have worked.

well the break is taking time from Sky so they aren't working that much

 

[Cervelo77]

Here we all go together up the mountain holding hands.
It's like they're escorting Sky to Paris.

 

[DominicDecoco]

Kiryienka and CAS are timing this well.

Edit; CAS not so much.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

I don't have high hopes for this climb. 4 Sky riders in front again.

 

[vcampbell]

Kiryienka is an animal. He have to win this!

 

[BillytheKid]

Horner looks fine? They called him back.

 

[Bala Verde]

The Valkyrie!!! attack

You wouldn't want to make Sky angry.

 

[Big Doopie]

rolland still waiting, letting the others do the work. he is patient man.

 

[Cervelo77]

LOL. Good one. Nobody can derail the Sky train, that much is obvious by now.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Rogers finally gone.

Porte now

 

[Zam_Olyas]

Kern finally gone lol

 

[Parrulo]

rogers finally pulling to the side, porte ready to ride at the front for 50k now

the stage would only need to be 300k long for sky to burn all of their doms

 

[vcampbell]

Rogers out now? Then Porte to kill everyone
