Desert Nomad Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 looks like we're in for a belting tour. big bjarne is tooled up. Aye Contador didn`t concede too much. I liked Movistar as well. Thankfully the Pyrenees come before the first TT. I`m still unsure as to how Froome will lose it though. The Spanish trio need to hit him hard in the Pyrenees I feel. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_S_A_R Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 i'm not that bothered if he loses it i just want them to drive him to do something outwith the bounds of possibility. contador vs rasmussen in 07 all over again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Can we all just take a moment to watch Pierre Rolland's impression of everyone's favourite Frenchman, Tommy Voeckler? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_S_A_R Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) not a bad stage there. it looked like the break were going to make it but they struggled in the wind on the high open roads approaching marseille. cav beat EBH, greipel and sagan after a perfect lead out. lutsenko the astana rider was impressive in the break.

Just caught the last couple of km. Textbook finish from Cav, slipstreaming Steegmans perfectly until unleashing a fierce kick. Unbeatable when the team put it on a plate for him like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T_S_A_R Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 sagan gets his stage win and looks likely to hold onto green until paris. the serious business starts tomorrow. sky caught everyone napping on the first big climb last year, you have to assume tomorrow all the GC guys will be ready. apart from van den broeck and brajizic crashing out all the GC guys are pretty close together. it'll be interesting to see what andy schleck has to offer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be interesting to see what any of the GC guys have to offer! Quitanta and Valverde could play a card, Purito has been invisible until now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
