Great, great edition, this.
Eurosport ad breaks have been a thing of beauty.
TGF RS 2.

10kms to go and anyone's race.

Gilbert looking so cool

 

[Francois the Postman]

Wow, if they though offredo wasn't seen as someone to keep an eye on....

It's gonna be fun on the climbs now, no waiting to see what's happening behind you, there are folk up front already.

second chasing group given up.

with the number of riders they have, if leopard trek dont win this its one of the more impressive failures ever.

Sky meanwhile have got today very very wrong.

The peloton is nearly 2 minutes back, surely that means game over for Cav, Farrar, Hushovd et al.

Gilbert, Spartacus or Goss.

 

[hfer07]

balan looks dangerous......

 

[microdose]

30" don't beleive they've let them go

 

[Cobblestones]

A great MSR. I hope one of the four takes it.

 

[The Hitch]

Lastras goes!!!

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Amazing job from Greipel. Somehow I can't imagine HTC ever having him do this.

 

[Francois the Postman]

Here we go!

I hope Eurosport has done their usual, a commercial station that gets the ads out of the way for the final 10k uninterrupted.

 

[on3m@n@rmy]

Eh, EBH made the big move, he just didn't have the legs. They didn't have too many other cards to play.

[Moondance]

Van Avermaet.

ACF going crazy.

 

[Cobblestoned]

Lotto only have one chance now, a Gilbert win. Greipel is killing himself to bring this back.

I remember that stage where he carried some bottles, rode at front and then even won the sprint. Eneco ?

But...this is M-SR

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]
