Yeah as in, earlier in the climb, but still in the last km. So yeah, you know you got to go with the favorite attacks there.

No, as in, a gap before the climb began, as in, he attacked on a downhill or flat, and was not chased down, and survived, the final climb, and won. But, as I explained, it was my mistake, so yeah.

The other option is the Tour of Poland, so he might as well ride the TDF.

Breaks wins final stage at Ster; no change in overall.

Beaten by Kittel & Greipel, and a break wins an obvious sprint stage makes it a clean sweep for Cavendish in the 'total **** / ideal setup to make other teams chase in the Tour' stakes depending on how you view it.

British championship then Tour? Is that right? Is that his schedule?

p.s. OPQS take the team classification, no?

Stef Clement in super giro form almost gets top 10 in a mountainous Dauphine just behind Contador and Samu, because he was in the Froome, Vaverde group in a MTF.

Thomas Dekker in super giro form gets 8th in ster ZLM tour just behind Sieberg and Kittel, because he was in the Greipel, Cavendish group in an Ardennes stage.

Who would've thought that a few years ago? :D

Then again, some development is very logical.

Where Gesink and Dekker failed, Mollema did win the Tour l'Avenir. And right now is looking to be the best of the 3... although he still has to catch up on top 10 GT finishes against Gesink

several GC contenders managed to get away from race leader, Mancebo, effectively pushing Brown up to first place on the podium.

Stage winner:

was pretty happy with Brown a bit further back in that picture.

Note: another Irish was defeated today, but not by much.

You forgot Lars Boom, who is currently a better GC rider than Dekker :p

I'm really starting to believe that this is Dekker at maximum capacity. Just a mediocre rider.
