There is nothing smart about riding 50k in a 3 man-attack 20 seconds in front of a group that contains severals pairs of other teams who have extra incentive (KoM, GC) to keep the break distanced from the peloton. Everything he did on the Soudet was a waste on energy.
I guess we'll see in an hour or so

and if he didn't ride, who would? we dont know, the big groups gap could have dropped big time
 
Good Hevans!
Off topic, but I highly recommend listening to Cadel Evans on the podcast Never Strays Far. He joins Ned Boulting, David Millar, and Peter Kennaugh as they travel to the next stop in a car. Cadel has great stories about the Tour and about his life (he was born in an Aboriginal community in Australia but he is not of Aboriginal descent).
