[the asian]

Demare stayed home, bouhanni was dropped

Oh really. Was switched off from Cycling the past few weeks. What happened to him?

 

[porkinson]

Anyone notice that sky wear two different types of helmet? Is it on preference?

One helmet that has vents you can open

 

[Kender]

Rojas? lol

It's between them 3, Sagan should take it easily though I guess.

Heh cadel likes to have an early dig these days. Never know

 

[pastronef]

Yup, Kristof in Kittels group.

ok, good news. who knows... I'm praying to see David Millar in yellow tonight. but it will be very hard

 

[JRanton]

2 Sky riders in the Maillot Jaune group. Thomas and?

Siutsou. Blue shoes.

Same one, with closeable vents.

 

[the sceptic]

So who will attack the last hill?

 

[cocteau_ireland]

Half a dozen puncheurs must really fancy this wee climb. Though sagan has four guys than can bring him back in last 10k

 

[JRanton]

8 there for BMC versus 5 for Sky.

 

[roundabout]

I think Gerrans has a good chance today.
BMC pulling.Maybe Phil has good legs?

Nah, they are just riding near the front for Evans.

 

[webvan]

Swiss champion

Thanks, hadn't seen the familiar cross!

 

[b.broadhurst]

Has he ever been this bad before ? Sick ?

Well behind Kittel

He's carrying more weight this year as he has been struggling to recover in the middle of the tour the last few years

Surprised he's worse than Kittel though

Was there are thread for who will be the white jersey winner? Just wondering who the contenders are.

[King Boonen]

Doesn't look like it, different labelling.

Edit: about Skys helmets.

 

[Aditya]

Siutsou. Blue shoes.

but there's another Sky rider wearing blue shoes in the peloton.

I seriously doubt there will be need any. If there is a attack on the last hill, sagan will be part of it.Or maybe even one of the initiators.

[Ferminal]

Gollum sabotage.

 

[roundabout]

But unfortunately, Peraud also has a tendency to find trouble on his own

 

[Michele]

Greipel said to be in a small group not too far back from the peloton but the speed is high now.

 

[Ruudz0r]

Has anyone seen Samuel Dumoulin? (I know he is hard to spot)

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Rojas in yellow would be great.
