Well done to Garmin for salvaging something from this Tour after Talansky withdrew, especially with such an impressive last 10k's from Navardauskas.

I think Lemond is trying to hypnotise all his guests by touching all of them on the shoulder. (It's a technique). No success on that front yet, Greg.

Nice warm up for the TT. Congrats to Navardauskas and Garmin!

Probably unnecessary of me, but I feel sorry for Sagan. Hate seeing the guy look lost, I guess.

On a happier note, Vincenzo Nibali as road boss is glorious! :)

Yeah, he was on the front on the climb, but I'm sure his DS was adamant about not attacking prematurely before the stage.

The conditions were ****. He needed to attack. He should have learnt that by now based on some of the other stages.

Purely in the interests of investigation, I just tested that and yes, I'm on the list now as well. Polls need a closing time.

But well done to whoever posted the poll for offering it as an option.

He was pretty close and consistent on flat stages so I figured Garmin may try to lead him out ... and the did ... 12Km from the finish :D

He didn't prove that this Tour. He should actually attack then, that's the reason I always support Sagan in sprint stages, because he isn't afraid to attack.

I'm rerally not interested in iders that only sprint for the last 200m ad infinitum.
For a sprinter Degenkolb attacks a lot, just look at Paris Tours. Also Sagan doesn't habe Kittel to worry about.
