Almost everyone currently high on GC was still in that group, except Rogers, Weening, a BMC guy.BillytheKid said:This could be a surprise with the climb at 9.5%. I am going with those who made that front group over the top of the last climb yesterday, but I never got all the names. Wiggins was there, Talansky, Spilak...Clement?
Interesting TT in prospect. Road bike or TT bike? Hilly, windy and technical. Dry at the moment. Road bike for me.

That gap opened on the descent. Over the top all Rabo riders were still in the big group. Rogers, Weening, and two others were chasing.BillytheKid said:The coverage on NBC was chopped up by ads. It was a group of 10-12. Not much of a gap, but enough to tell who had power over the top. That will be telling today. Sanchez had to chase and Rabbo did a fine job. I know Wiggins was the only Sky rider. Anyway that would be my measure. I can't find highlights of it.![]()

If he is in the same form as in the Paris-Nice MTT he can do around 28.30 (rough calculation based on his power output on Col d'Èze)jens_attacks said:wiggo below 29 minutes?
nice result from froome,this week he gained valuable form
Didn't look to be in the same form this week though.GazelleFormula said:If he is in the same form as in the Paris-Nice MTT he can do around 28.30 (rough calculation based on his power output on Col d'Èze)
Point is, they didn't.BillytheKid said:What I saw was a select and stretched out group over the top. Even if the gap opened on the descent, there all single file over the top and that count's as a selection if they stayed that way on the descent. Choppy coverage though.
