LOL from Phil with 2K to go "The way he's riding right now, Wiggins could win this group sprint."

Yeah, Goss better be relegated for that. Otherwise, no point in having rules about holding your line.

Not sure about the Goss-Sagan situation. Hoping Goss isn't relegated to keep the fight for green close.

stupid move by Goss, those extra points aren't worth the retaliation that may come at a later date, Sagan is a young, emotional rider on an Italian team, stupid move

Oh sure, clean as it's ever been. Right.

Having said that, let's keep the doping talk where it belongs. Plenty of threads in the clinic about it.

Wiggins will no doubt wish Millar kept his mouth shut! ;)

I really hate stages with profiles like this one. I realize every stage can't be mountaintop finishes, but what is the point of even including the two category one climbs when they are so far away from the finish? There's almost no chance the overall contenders will race the climbs and it turns into a parade, almost like watching the sprinters group just riding fast enough to make the time cut.

I'm sure, that he said "vaffanculo", and something more at the end, but I know only a little in italian, so what was the other word I don't know.

Well I imagine "Fluffy Rabbit" could have insulted Goss much more, the real meaning however is not so creative (and frankly quite obvious in that situation).

So that Pescheux and Prudhomme can boast about having 26 categorised climbs this Tour and that the route isn't too unbalanced and TT heavy.
