isn Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 If Voekler gets over that hill then the stage is his, it wouldnt be the first time he has done it either.He is seriously quick going downhill.That is far from a hill. It's a mountain with 7.3% gradient.
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Dale aren't you a bit behind the race?I live in SlaapstadHehehe
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 The three leaders have been joined by two more with Steve Morabito (FDJ) and German champion Emanuel Buchmann (Bora). They have 40 seconds on the bunch with Arnaud Démare and Julien Simon trying to bridge the gap.
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 the five leaders have 2:46 on the peloton now and it looks like we've finally got our break of the day with 85kilometres ridden. Simon and Démare are 48 seconds in arrears.
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 It's lunch time for the riders as they pass through the feed zone. They'll want to get in as much nutrition as they can before the Col d'Aspin.
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 The average speed over the first two hours of racing is 44kph but that should slow down in the second half of the stage. Simon and Démare have joined forced with the five riders out front and we now have a group of seven leading the way.

'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 The leaders have 4:10 on the bunch as we hit the halfway point. The seven men out front are: Thomas Voeckler (Europcar), Rafal Majka (Tinkoff-Saxo), Serge Pauwels (MTN-Qhubeka), Steve Morabito and Arnaud Démare (FDJ) Julien Simon (Cofidis) and Emmanuel Buchmann (Bora-Argon 18).

'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 !!! Daniele Bennati has abandoned the race. He is the second Tinkoff-Saxo rider to quit after Ivan Basso pulled out on the rest day after it was discovered that he had testicular cancer
'Dale Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Breakaway stands a good chance Sky won't burn matches chasing and control the race They'll only chase if there is a clear GC threat
