Hi 'Dale,

Great pic of Sisteron, and you are right, it does look as if it is out of a movie!!!

Thanks

Watched final 25km last night and what fantastic racing it was! Attack after attack and the pace was insane. Hope we see more of the same at the Tour.

 

Glance at the profile and it looks like a day for the sprinters but look more closely and the final 30km include some disruptive roads that promise a tense finish with several sharp climbs including a 15% wall with two kilometres to go.

Agreed, jcza

 

Watching Yates and Kelderman too right at the death

 

I suspect that teams understand they need to risk and dare as the Skyborgs will sustain their dominance

Awesome solo attack by 'Berto

With Krueziger and a few more teammates, he'll be able to stay out of the wind a bit longer and attack the Skyborgs during TdF.

 

2nd win for Katusha - very impressive.

 

Nibs looking more settled ad even attacked in the final few kms.

 

Keldermann steady and solid for Belkin.

 

Hi Dale,

 

you know if theres any truth in your man joining Tinkoff saxo ? I would love to have him onboard!!
