And he just wraps carbon around his foot, so it fits ONLY his foot. Basically a not very heavy paper weight!

74 g apparently.

From this group I'll rather go with Gilbert.

There is a large break today, and they already have 11 minutes lead. The peloton doesn't seem to be particularly interested in chasing at the moment. This one must just stick.

Dont know hey, I have rooted for ol Sylvain a few times in the recent past, and he disappointed me... sis.

 

I am rooting for him too, just not sure if he is up to it.

 

Yea I agree... seems to have lost that extra bit of grit to fight for it when the going gets tough

It's opened to 12min+ now. 

 

I think the climb will be too big for Gilbert. He'll be gapped before the top.

 

 

Just 4km of flat road from the bottom to the finish.
