Yes I am sure he is heartbroken - such bad luck! but he really gave it his best shot to continue, very brave effort and that dislocated shoulder must have been very painful.

 

Mr Sagan is going to miss him, plus he himself is not feeling 100%.

You've got to feel for Impey, that's the first lead out he's done for Gerrans in ages, normally the other way around and he did such a great job. I hope there is some way he can get a day in Yellow as well. Deserves it.

 

But then Impey didn't have the style icon that was the 'stralia's first yellow jersey winner as his first coach... Mr Phil Anderson! Ice colds and owning those Oakleys like no one else could.

What is really wonderful is that two relatively new teams in OGE and Argos' have been in yellow...

 

Great for cycling.

While this Aussie team, OGE, celebrates, another Aussie is lamenting his position on the GC ladder:

 

Cadel at 20+ secs behind

Oooooooo f*k ----------------------------------------- weg!!

Hmmmm

 

I think Gossie must move over and OGE must prioritize Gerrans as nr 1 sprinter.

Protect yellow for tomorrow.

Gerrans should be able to after winning Stage 3, which had a Cat 2 even,, although it was relatively short.

“Other teams will want to keep the race together for a bunch sprint, so we’ll have help there... Ideally, we can take the yellow jersey all the way to the Pyrenees but we’re taking it one day at a time.”

Cuddles needs a cuddle after losing more than 20 secs on the GC ladder.

He rides in Pearl Izumi, I see, which means that on style points he's in yellow.

He is telling Peter about the time he tested positive for amphetamines and then cried like a baby till the UCI dropped the charges
