ok 8 kms and 3'30''
only fabio roscioli will lose in these conditions

 

[Miburo]

last 5 km

You can clearly see that km2-km1 is pretty steep. Well compared to the rest of the climb it is.

Thanks. I guess he's doing it alone, I haven't heard a sidekick yet.

Veillux has only lost 2 minutes to a chasing peloton over 50 km...

That's one of the most insane rides I've ever seen.

 

[Kender]

His DS is sure yelling at him to ride hard hehe

Europcar finding their extra tank of gasoline just in time for the Tour.

Veillux has only lost 2 minutes to a chasing peloton over 50 km...

He was also quite impressive last autumn IIRC

The peloton has been making no time at all on Veilleux in the last 10kms. Great win for him, very impressive.

 

[Cimber]

Nice to see more Canadian success after Hesjedal

 

[Kender]

Peloton don't seem interested in catching any more

 

[airstream]

Who wanted to see an attack here? Looks like one team is preparing it.

 

[jens_attacks]

quite awesome win by veilleux
keep in mind though that it was a 120 kms stage. still insanely strong. last year he beat the italians at home big time so no surprise

let's see some action in the peloton.

 

[manafana]

leader making this climb look steeper than it is.

leader making this climb look steeper than it is.

He had the opportunity to learn from the best.

 

[Miburo]

Contador looks

 

[Kender]

He had the opportunity to learn from the best.

No one is as good as tommy at making a climb look hard

 

[maltiv]

Veillux will win the TT too, no doubt.

 

[Cimber]

He had the opportunity to learn from the best.

Its a part of what they learn at their off-season trainingcamp

I don't know why the AlJazeera guy is so excited about the two guys in the middle and whether they manage to get to the finish before the peloton.
