:( I am quite disappointed that Sagan did not try to get to this group. For Sagan this group looks quite ideal. Apparently the last climb is too much to even give it a try.

I understand Purito. Saving energy for tommorow. (this going to be amazing battle)

A HC climb with Rogers and the like? No way in hell Sagan would have made that.

well, he has good excuse though, even if he could hold onto rogers and the likes, to try to be part of the escape, you must be in the peloton at that time, and sagan together with rodriguez and others was in the second echelon in the time of forming the BOTD

I put 2 dollars on Slagter while he was 200/1. Today could be a good day. What's his descending like? I'm guessing like most light weight climbers that it's terrible?

:) deal. I am still wondering what is wrong with Spilak. Defending Puritos polka dots or Trofimov 17th place? :D
LOL,yea,just hot weather is not spilak playground I think...
 
I am really looking forward to see how Slagter will deal with the last climb after this Garmin desperate chase.

Garmin used to be my second favourite team, but if the Slagter supposed to be the man to save the Tour something is really wrong here.
Do not teke me wrong I really like the guy.

Eurosport, you've bought the rights to show Le Tour. Because of that I can't watch it anywhere else other than from you. So please show me it. If I want to know what Lemond thinks I'll write him a letter.

The question is, if any other channels are showing something?

problem is all these climbs are too long for Slagter yeah... but the rest is even worse.
They really miss Janier Acevedo
