'Dale Posted April 9, 2014 Share Peter Sagan (Cannondale) is also in action today. It'll be interesting to see if he has a go in the expected sprint finish. He's sat quietly in the peloton for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted April 9, 2014 Share There's a bit of action back in the bunch with Belkin jumping to the head of affairs and starting to set the pace. FDJ are paying close attention to this though and all of a sudden the pace jumps up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted April 9, 2014 Share That move has had an instant impact with the gap now down to 1'52. It's all FDJ on the front with the odd Belkin and Giant Shimano rider in the mix. At the back of the field Bos is coming back after a quick comfort break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakkals. Posted April 9, 2014 Share Garmin-Sharp has also placed two riders on the front to help the chase. Tyler Farrar is the US team's protected sprinter today. I wouldnt put my hopes on him, as an outsider maybe, but not a favorite for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
