Ain't this common norm at the Tour since Prudhomme took over!?

Well, you can't change the geography of that area. Maybe it's possible to find two climbs in the eastern pyrenees that are close to each other, but there will be some valley leading to the third.

Re: Re:

I guess Dowsett will quit today.

he's been terrible this tour for movistar so far.

Except in the TTT when he kept Movistar within distance of the big teams

We've been doing well so far but have had some lucky chances....only shame is that I don't have a proper glass to drink it in.

That was quite something indeed. More a breakaway stage, but a bit lame to use all those great climbs for a breakaway stage

 

[Ataraxus]

They are slower than the latest predicted schedule

 

[Arredondo]

Kwiatkowski is in an even more then horrible shape

 

[Eagle]

Kwiat droppped

 

[Punkan]

Clouds.

 

[auscyclefan94]

[Punkan]

I just finished my time lapse of Plateau de Beille : http://youtu.be/a1qrLzO0SzM

I do this from streetview images, I know it's a bit too fast but I hope this is useful as a preview anyway.
Maybe I will do some of the last mountain stage if I have time.

[Punkan]

Rain, this could be interesting.
