It does seem like a talented generation, I was impressed with Pedersen in Dunkerque and Power has signed for Orica next season hasn't he?

Well CN aren't holding back on Sagan's chances:

"Today's stage will be the last in the yellow jersey for Peter Sagan, who took over the lead with a smashing time trial in Santa Clarita."

The difference between 2012 when Gesink had Kelderman and LL Sanchez up till 5km before the end with him is huge. LottoNL is not strong enough to pull the peloton till 5km to go. Sky will need to help

alaphillipe will put bobby gesink and henao to their places tonight
Alaphilippe is not really a climber, or at least never was in u23.. but who knows
After his impressive time trial yesterday I've stopped predicting what that guy can do. He's basically the french version of Kwiatkowski

Yesterday was not surprising. Alaphilippe was always good at short ITT efforts/prologue efforts. And yeah, he is as Kwiatkowski, he has the same limits in longer mountains. He might do well, that's why I put him as dark horse. But don't expect him to solidly beat Henao

Commentators talking about Zubeldia :eek: they will burn in the hell :p
Did a decent time trial yesterday. Wouldn't surprise me if he silently brings home a top 10 in the overall without any notice

I think so, yes.

Pedersen has progressed nicely since he became senior. He is definately one of the best Danish talents with Cort and Valgren as well.

What was the last generation that didn't seem talented?!
