Re:

Bouhanni "punching" his way to a victory.

Yes he will. He will be allowed to. Jury will analyze Matthews second place.

 

[Armchaircyclist]

Both Kristoff and EBH optimistic before this stage, lets see if Norway can ever get a win again... Fingers crossed even though Kittel clearly is the fastest.

I know you're still bitter about what happened last tuesday (I think you can now focus on the race) but if there's one sprinter you cannot troll with jury decisions it's Bouhanni.

Spot on. However, if last Tuesday would not happen, I wouldn't have to troll and would have a completely different post. Enjoy the rest of the Tour.

Re: Re:

the return of the flat boring stages

Six of next seven stages are going to be crap. It makes no sense to avoid so many opportunities for GC relevant stages in the second week.

Peyragudes, Foix, Rodez, Le Puy en velay **** stages?

You're just a hater

In the second week the only stage to watch is Peyragudes, third week starts with flat stage.
Foix, Le Puy will not bring GC action because final climb is too far finish, main contenders will finish together. It was possible to make a proper uphill finish Le Puy.

Re:

Mathews vs Groenewegen vs EBH. Epic fight for 5th place. Can't wait.

Groenewegen hasn't even sprinted yet this Tour. Only got boxed in every time. Would be nice to see him sprint for once.

[MartinGT]

Chavanel to attack at KM 0?

 

[Eagle]

This is a joke of a race

 

[MartinGT]

Offredo goes and nobody with him! Looks like another long day for the Wanty team lol

 

[MartinGT]

Kung goes now and its getting shut down

 

[spalco]

arggh, after chambery-like stage, the same situation would've happened in the giro or vuelta too.

Atleast there'll be ample of time to enjoy one of the most elegant riders in the peloton, Yoann Offredo.

And above all: the beautiful landscape with countless picturesque villages.

 

[JackRabbitSlims]

What's up with Phinney??

 

[Catwhoorg]

Hoping EBH can get this.

Positioning is obviously going to be key, and DD are pretty good at that as a team.

My head says Kittel though.

 

[Oliver]

When comes the day that nobody wants to attack on stages like today? :razz:
Thank god we have Wanty.

Sounds like Bollox, Armstrong would be in there.
