Re:

ofcourse Gesink crashes. This will be the end of his top 10 or possible top 5.

The bad luck never ends.

It's unbelievable ain't it? How can one got so much misfortune.

Sagan very active.
Wants the points. Barguill would like the stage.

 

[Frosty]

Rolland trying to make it across too. Can't see him being let go but makes it more interesting

 

[sir fly]

Huzarski

 

[Frosty]

Group of 24 ahead by a minute

 

[Arredondo]

Re:

I read a group of 7

Edit: And now 24

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Strong break up ahead, just missing Purito

You'd think that the team of everyone placed 5 to 15 on GC would want to reel in Barguil and Rolland. We'll see, I guess. It's gonna be a s---show today.

IAM Cycling.

This stage could be fun. I just hope it will be all down to Sky to chase, so they will burn themselves before the last three hills. We might actually see some real action today.

Re:

Quick QA which former rider would light up this borefest ?

Poll please. With Vino option.

 

[sir fly]

French teams want their representatives in the break.

Sky won't need to chase that hard, Barguil is nearly 10 mins down and will be dropped by Froome in the Alps next week if he does take 10 minutes anyway. If it gets that close I bet BMC and Movistar would want to chase anyway.

Hopefully nobody chases the break to keep a top 10 space safe

Re:

IAM has Pantano in the front but is now chasing behind to defend Matthias Franks top 15 spot hahaha.

 

[TheGreenMonkey]

IAM are idiots if they are really chasing.
Frank's GC position means nothing.
They are not strong enough to pull the break back anyway.

 

[Stilletto]

Who's dropped already ?

 

[sir fly]

Plenty of ambitions in the breakaway.
Numbers could decide.
Cannondale looks the best. Giant, Europcar and Orica close behind.

 

[SlickMongoose]

Nice to see Simon Yates finally in a break.

Gautier will destroy himself twice for Rolland.

 

[doperhopper]

They should let them win by 20 min so that the French can have their "voeckler-like show reloaded", warrior Warren riding in yellow up the Alpe, only to end up 10 min back.

 

[sir fly]

IAM should cool down.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

LottoJumbo reports Gesink is feeling just fine

 

[Sylvester]

IAM riding for Frank, really? They're just delusional then.
