[Geraint Too Fast]

Lol 😀






Gerrans or Gilbert ftw.

 

[Ruudz0r]

The last 3 km profile looks different then when you look on the total stage profile.

But nice intro 😀

 

[PCutter]

Bling Matthews FTW....oh, wait

But nice intro 😀

It's just the scale that is confusing. In the last 2km it seems to rise approx 90m vertical height, so it's not a flat run in.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

This could be fun from the start.
The following teams have little GC chance now:
BMC
Orica
Lampre
Argos
Cannondale
UNI SA

Gilbert FTW

 

[Parrulo]

not a single machado reference on the OP?

props to you 😛

anyway i hope they race this aggressively. phill or EBH FTW

 

[iZnoGouD]

I hope so, i want to see GT blow up!!

Lotto and team Grieple win win this buy a country mile,with Demare 2nd and Renshaw 3rd.Stage set for the sprinters.

 

[trevim]

One thing should be noticed: Down Under is providing very good racing this last two seasons.

Bold prediction. Kittel and Guardini too?

 

[HiCadence]

Turbo Durbo from a break away!!!!

 

[Ruudz0r]

Looks like a stage for G!

 

[manafana]

I have a feeling for Rojas to do well hes my big bet of night against ponzi. Cant believe some books have Greipel as favourite for this he will really need to want it to get to finish.

2am tv again?

 

[maltiv]

Great, I was thinking of not getting up tonight to watch TDU to actually get some sleep, instead I just woke up puking like crazy...🙁

At least I can watch this bike race inbetween the puking (apologize in advance for far too much personal information 😛).

Greipel has never done well on this stage earlier and now it's much harder than in previous editions. He'll have to be at his absolute best to even have a chance of staying in the peloton.

 

[petiagos]

If not a breakaway victory ...with Simon Clarke ( my bet)
Then Gilbert,Slagter or Rojas

Yeh, I made $10 for free laying Greipel 😱

Hopefully we get aggressive riding to make the break instead of the usual rubbish.

 

[Ferminal]

Sounds like we got a race, Sky practicing for July already.

 

[Ferminal]

Group of 23 have a bit of a gap with Impey and Bobridge ahead of them.

Poor Bernie

 

[maltiv]

Javier Moreno is one of the guys in the move, so it's quite dangerous no doubt.

 

[HiCadence]

Really surprised there is no uniSA rider in the break.

 

[Ferminal]

Clarke and Clarke looks like BotD 🙁

 

[maltiv]

Clarke and Clarke in front now 😀

Can Clarke make it a double from last year? Or will Clarke save GreenEdge's TDU? 😛

 

[HiCadence]

Yep seems like that's what the peloton settled on 🙁 was hoping for a few more.
