Garmin chasing apparently. Again a tough day for the peloton.

Only until Garmin get Tom-Jelte Slagter in the break.

 

[The Barb]

Get the hell out of there Garmin. Grrrrr.

 

[l.Harm]

Only until Garmin get Tom-Jelte Slagter in the break.

[Dazed and Confused]

Mikel Nieve (Sky) is dropped off.

Dropped on the climbs and can't stay with the peloton on the flats......

Awaiting virus report.

 

[alin.constantin89]

Someone BAN Garmin fast ! LOL

 

[Netserk]

Peloton at 50 seconds
Led by teams Belkin, Giant and Garmin, the main peloton is 50 seconds behind the breakaway. The Rodriguez-Van den Broeck group is at 1.15.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

I would have offered the wine cellar to get TV production of the full stage.

 

[jens_attacks]

[Eyeballs Out]

Probably a lot of riders caught napping thinking the break had gone for the day

 

[l.Harm]

Giant and Belkin chasing as well apparently. Is it that difficult to get someone in the break if 12 men are going


Or maybe crosswinds yeah, that would make some sense.

 

[Netserk]

I really hope some of the teams who have a rider in the break try to disturb the chase.

 

[Jagartrott]

Probably a lot of riders caught napping thinking the break had gone for the day

Or suffering from some virus (like Porte and JVDB) or suffering from crashes. This Tour has been quite hard on the riders.

 

[l.Harm]

Apparently echelons!

 

[Sasquatch]

I really hope some of the teams who have a rider in the break try to disturb the chase.

They should be helping to try and get better riders in the break to challenge Rogers and Kiryienka

I just don't understand, why aso doesn't do early coverages from stages like this, when it's pretty obvious the the forming of the escape is going to get uggly.
