I think I read around 1705 with the fastest stipulated average speed on the official site, so about the same time as all the other stages.

People are saying his name becauseboomcie said:What's up with Tschopp? Everybody seems to be naming him today... I'm a little puzzled, but alright.
auscyclefan94 said:Now that I've hyped Tschopp up he's likely to fail!
He rides for an American team, and thus is instantly great.boomcie said:What's up with Tschopp? Everybody seems to be naming him today... I'm a little puzzled, but alright.

boomcie said:Thanks youngest, this clears it up more than ACF's list of things I already knew.
Yes, maybe I should have said an Anglosaxon team.just some guy said:Doesn´t AFC comes from a land down under ?
