Horner is the oldest stage winner in a grand tour ever. (Until today it was Pino Cerami)

Tweet from Reinardt again.

 

Looks like the time keepers think I am a climber. According to them I was again 15th. But it was again @WarrenBarguil

I forgot to PVR it and last night I was a little miffed........now I see Horner won,..... not so much. :unsure:

 

Surprised Nibali gave the jersey away so quickly, I know there are time bonuses which probably helped Horner but still a little surprised, I see most of the big names were together time wise so I guess he didn't chase?......or am I wrong?

Early days GOG. I reckon red jersey would be harder to defend than a yellow jersey in TDF. As long as he stays in striking distance. Valverde was looking good yesterday. I reckon he is a serious contender.

Yup, agreed, I figured as much.

Nibs controlled everything nicely.

He'll be relieved to not wear red.

 

The racing has been hot!

I thought Nibs looked a little sheepish when he took the jersey on stage 2. No way you want to have to control the race from there to the end with so much hard and crazy racing to come.

How was that climb?! Geez!!

 

1.8km with an AVERAGE of 13%. Looks like some okes were looking for a parking spot. Had it been SA there would've been a car guard standing there already shouting ' kom 'n bietjie agter toe pa, daars hy my lanie, ek gat mooi kyk na die baas se bonie'!
