I know I'm 11 stages behind but are they seriously only have one time trial the entire tour. Seems a bit rigged for a mountain goat to win the tour this year?

 

What happened to at least a TTT or two TT's??

 

I only got to see the second half of Monday's stage yesterday and was very disappointed with Richie Porte. You think he's abiding his time or he doesn't have it?

So looking ahead to the end of the tour/paris.

 

Yellow jersey - nibs has got it, would be overwhelming favourite but is going to have to work his butt off to keep it all the way.

Green/points - Sagan has a monster lead 287, coquard on 156 and kittel on 146. he'll keep on going for it, and probably not enough other points left for anyone else to overhaul him.

polka dot/KOM - rodriguez is on 51, voekler 34...lots to come here, would need voekler to get into a break as he doesn't have the measure of jrod when it gets steep.

white/juvies - 3 way split with Bardet, pinot and kwiatkowski all within 2 minutes.

 

I think the polka dot and white jersey are going to be the highlights to watch more than the yellow this year. Would love to see Voekler fight for it day after day...I think he has something special. Don't normally like frenchman.

Even the timetrial has got quite a few bumps in it.

Cant see it happening after monday's stage....he was flapping from halfway. He might have the will but I think the boat has sailed on his ability

Long time since been on the Hub. Long time since actually did any real riding. But doing really really good thanks. Healthy and fit but not so fit, ha ha. The Tour has made me nostalgic.

For those that doubt the bike on roof rack story, but thanks for the magnum PI stuff.

Never was a fan, still not.

But huge respect for his courage now.

"You can take a hardman and make him a cyclist, but...." (To paraphrase).
