Sorry but i am just sick of 80% of the posters here. If you don't like cycling just go away and watch some freak show or whatever. But this level of moaning is really getting beyond ridicilous. You ain't cycling fans.
Agreed ...

People would moan that there is too much flat after the descent if that was true.

And to continue on from yesterday (hope not) Wiggins has had a puncture in the first few km today.

I agree it seems most of the posters either hate cycling or simply do not have the patience or attention span to watch cycling as they can only seem to enjoy watching it when there is constant excitement. All they can seem to focus on is the GC race and unless every stage has the potential of dramatic GC changes they whine that watching is a waste of their time. But then again isn't this the biggest fault with the internet ADHD generation where people constantly need to be entertained or they cry and complain.

any lashback from cadel for tejay not waiting or has he just let it go?

Oh, I don't think Cadel has made anything out of it. Maybe they had a discussion about it privately.

Mechanical for Wiggins, he tosses his bike in the ditch. Being paced back by his team.

I think bernie's eyesore tactic of sky tt to the end for a cavendish win seems like coming true. :D

Looks like Hutarovitch and van Hummel have been dropped on the lumps and bumps - they'll get back on once the break goes.

Dan Martin trying to make the break. Thought he might wait and have another go in the Pyrenees.

Wonder if Tyler Farrar will give the sprint a go today?
