Gutted this isnt televised live

Hope that PK can hold on. Another Sky rider who should currently be in France.

Well, if Sky are serious about Froome's Vuelta bid then they will need an in form Kennaugh for help on the climbs. It is obviously great that he get's the experience of leading a race for a few days and showing the team just what he can achieve. I have big hopes for Kennaugh who has been touted as Sky's next GC hope, I don't buy in to the PR rubbish of sky buying a young Frenchman.

Gourmetfein was robbed all their bikes. Cofidis, Trek and Katusha helping out.

the UCI needs to step in one this happening far too often start hiring proper security and have areas for team to securely store over night.

Presumable you mean UCI should put some regulation in place?

Sports regulator (get out of anti doping and race org UCI)
race organizer
Teams
(anti dope)

The three stakeholders needs to find a good plan/solution for the problem.

30 minute highlight package from stage 5: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyzP1ct0ypU

Some atrocious weather in the Alps. Good race action however, marvelous win for Sergent, a 20km solo win from break. Kennaugh defending very well.

Sky train very strong, especially Knees on moderate terrain.

Riders are getting tired, but there are possibilities for stronger guys today methinks.

petrov takes it, dayer quintana second, kennaugh third

 

[roundabout]

Doesn't seem like a lot happened today

http://liveticker.laola1.at/radsport/ticker.html

Petrov wins and I presume Kennaugh is 2 days away from winning the GC

Both Coppel and Zoidl should be able to move up after the TT, but yea Kennaugh got this in a bag without incidents. Strong ride from the Brit.

 

[MBotero]

Too bad Kennaugh is"wasted"here,he's place was in TDF squad.Good showing is very close to win this.

 

[Bushman]

Zoidl and Coppel will definately move up on gc, I think Caruso will also pass Zaugg and enter the podium.

Probably.

Stage 7 (ITT):

Starts at 14:00 local.

 

[Bushman]

Also good showing from Quintana again proving he can perform well consistently already. Bodes well for the future.

 

[whittashau]

So apparently Mohoric reached 121 kph on yesterday's stage, well at least according to George Bennett's twitter

Scary stuff considering the protection these guys travel in.
It takes bravery to be a pro cyclist for sure.

Still not fast enough judging by his results
[Of course he's still so young...]

De Troyer leading: 29:05:08

 

[roundabout]

Winning times under 28 minutes for what I think was the same course in the 2 previous editions

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Yep, same as last year.

Joeaar should give us a good marker shortly.

 

[roundabout]

Hondo gained a lot of time in the last half. Maybe even too much for me to think that his time is correct

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Looks ok against Canola considering int. time.

Hondo: 28:57:13

 

[roundabout]

from 5 seconds to 52. Although I suppose it's doable in 13 or so km into a headwind

Devo with best time so far:

Thanks.

Vanderwalle new best time: 00:27:50.38, 51,94 km/h

Don't think Jungels can beat that.
