They need good positioning for their GC men for car positining for tomorrow and also keep their men in a decent position/

Garmin is trying to keep Talansky safe. I don't know what Saxo is doing because Contador is not in their line. He is back in the pack a ways.

Stringing out the peloton might make is a bit safer, but it still doesn't make what they are doing seem right.

 

[go crazy]

OK...10 K's, time to wake up.

Astana don't seem concerned with controlling things... Probably smart

Man, for having the best sprinter in the race, Giant sure does get out of having to do work.

 

[Afrank]

[Walkman]

Too early… AGAIN!!

 

[go crazy]

Giant still sitting on LOL!

 

[Eclipse]

Just waiting for the moment about 2km out that Giant Shimano slide into the front of the peloton and kill the stage off.

Probably the best place to be.

For sure. If nobody can beat Kittel just draft him in and be best of the rest lol.
