Sagan sure is good but you have to admit Dale that Impey and Gerans put one over him and his team today. Quality racing

 

Impey was awesome to watch today. Gave up his 4th place for a team mates win.

Yip, all the other teams sit up at attention when Mr Sagan is anywhere near them, he is definitly not going to have things easy this year !!

 

I thought Sagan had the win but he was outgunned by Gerrans.

Gotta fight brilliance with brilliance to hit the line first...

Gerrans said in his interview that they've been planning to win that stage weeks ago.

 

Impey, yoh impressive!!

Posted

Big leadout by Impey!Gerrans struggled to stay on he's wheel when he kicked!

Good win,I have to say I would not have predicted that after 3 stages in the tour Cav,Greipel and Sagan would be without a win....

It looks as though Geraint Thomas isn't going to be in the race for much longer. The guy is clearly in a lot of pain after fracturing his pelvis in stage one. A potentially big loss for Sky when they need to do pace making later in the tour.

 

There's concern that he will be dropped during the TTT without having enough time to get in before the cut-off time.

 

Gonna be intense out there for Team Sky.

This riding with a fractured pelvis story does my head in. My wife broke her pelvis in a cycling crash a few years back. She is no sissy but I can tell you she was in a lot of pain.

 

How hard are these guys? Makes me dislike football all over again.

"My mum doesn't want me to, but it's the Tour. It's not your average race. I'm definitely going to keep fighting. It felt a lot better today than yesterday, and it also felt a lot better at the end than it did at the start. But I've got a crack on my bone, so it's going to hurt, isn't it."

 

Geraint Thomas, after Stage 3

Tomorrow - Movistar,OPQS,and the Sky poefters

 

Not in that order but my top 3 in the TTT.

Movistar

Sky

Garmin

 

in that order. Geraint Thomas injury will hurt sky just a little otherwise I would have had them as a 50/50 for the win.

He must be one of the "poefters" Cav was talking about.... :whistling:

 

Huge respect for Geraint and Tony Martin. Tough (and motivated)
