Daideron Posted July 9, 2013 Share @ JCZA, I remember that Tour! Was a great race.And I must admit I used to dislike Voeckler simply because he seemed disliked by almost everyone else! (Most notably Paul Sherwen!)But I have grown to like him! His quirks and odd facial expressions are amusing. And he is not afraid to have a go at winning a race either!Deep in my heart I would have loved for a French rider to have won this centenary Tour. But I can see thats as likely as Armstrong, Hamilton and Landis teaming up for a comeback! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted July 9, 2013 Share Good point although surely on a super flat stage like this, there is no chance that Lotto, Quickstep, Argos Shimano & Cannondale would let any breakaway go far? Sky should be vary wary of Movistar come the Alps and and save energy accordingly... Yes? I'm sure that Sky is looking at the teams of the sprinters to do the work today. I'm not watching but there must be loads of discussion going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted July 9, 2013 Share Hope cannondale up the pace before that cat climb. Break away from Cav and some of the other sprinters, and let sagan take a nother easy win! :-) you can dream ey? I like your dreaming yeah Matts 300 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydude Posted July 9, 2013 Share Here is an updated profile graph including Panorama stage 3 and the Kremetart race. I've also included the names of the climbs. Like I said before, I used data direct from gpx which I think skews the profiles a bit in terms of time, but still, it gives an interesting comparison. Thanks Wez for the extra data! Click on the graph to see the complete graph.

TiBones Posted July 9, 2013 Share question from a noob- Greipel and Kittel are riding 54/11. Could Cav swap bikes and get a better gearing set, based on the prevailing wind, close to the end, even if he "pretended" to have a mechanical? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
