Yeah, in 2012 the infamous Sky train was still a relative novelty and was actually used to shred the peloton to pieces, not as a deterrent of attacks it morphed into later down the line.The 2012 Tour was bad, but not as bad as the 2012/22 Giro's IMO. At least in the 2012 Tour there was action on most of the mountain stages, I would say 2016/17 Tours were worse IMO
