Groenewegen must still be eina after his stage 1 crash to go FSA

But still fast enough to get 5th! I reckon if he hadn't crashed on stage 1 he'd be chalking up a second stage win today. He is lightning quick when it comes to a sprint finish!

But quickstep can?

47 victories this year....

I’m hearing alarm bells

That’s coz it’s a Belgian team

To beat Viviani your leadout has to be better than DQ or hope Viviani loses a wheel (like on Saturday)..at this stage no one comes close. And Jumbo were unorganised today.

Yes well you also need the rub of the green to go in your favour. And that hasn't been the case for Dylan, so far. Hoping they'll get it right next time round. He, Viviani and Gaviria (sad that he ain't at the TdF) are the best pure sprinters imho and the racing is always white hot when they're competing against each other. Can't say that I am unhappy with the results so far.

The Viking looked sizzling fast

He had to loop around the lead out guy from the blue team for his final kick ????

Today was a very productive day for my team.

Stage: 1st, 3rd, 4th and 5th.

GC, Green and White jerseys too.

 

Is that skillful luck, or just lucky skill?

I certainly didn't take my picks too sê-ri-us.

I'm really no having much luck watching le Tour! :-(

 

Yesterday I got home, switched on the TV, logged on here and promptly fell asleep (Siesta time) Woke up with 300m to go ;-)

 

Today I got home, switched on the TV, logged on here and 12kms from the end a thunderstorm  knocked out the TV signal. Thankfully it came back with 2km to go ;-)

 

I'm clearly just not meant to watch this thing!

Profiles for today and tomorrow.

 

Today could be the first real chance for the breakaway to succeed as the GC guys will probably be sitting back for the fun that is tomorrow.

 

Hoping Ben King tries to go with the break today and make something happen. He should take Stevo Cummings along to do some strong pulls to establish the break.
