Cav's top end speed is just unmatched.

No way to come around the Missile.

 

Are you taking the p!ss?

(Sorry, but he isnt gonna get away from that for the rest of the tour)

Is it just me or is Sagan getting himself into poor positions in the sprints this year? It seems like he finds himself behind lead out riders that are pulling out and slowing down.

 

His lead out is relatively poor this year.

It leads him to rather follow the wheel of a contender.

 

Also, the finishes are not at such an incline as last year where most of his successes have been.

He's hard to beat up a lil' gradient from a power sprinting point of view.

I thought Cav took it watching here on the gym telly at a wicked angle.

Good to see new winners emerging.

 

Cav will be crying in his pillow tonight.

Kittel 3

Cav 1

Sagan 1

Greipel 1

 

Numbers right?

That is impressive from Argos.

 

Admittedly, today, they had the best leadout train over the final few hundred metres.

Says a lot about their skill and organisation.

Rumour has it that Cav will have Renshaw leading him out soon, will be bringing him into the team
