    Indeed. The way he stoop up holding his other arm looked proper collabrone esq. (In my defence!)

    That's true, I thought the same thing.

    Tony Martin looks frazzled.

    Anyone else think Movistar looks like a pro-cont jersey?


    Haussler seems to be out of the saddle comfortably enough...

    I was thinking the same thing, wonder is anyone will try and put the hammer down?

    Richie Porte is also in the second group with Vino et al.

    Weird that Movistar are doing all this. Tondo needs nearly 2 minutes.

    It's odd, you'd think that Tondo would be more likely to get a result tomorrow.

    Unless they think Tondo will be more likely to get a lot of time if they soften the bigger guys up today... Martin and Wiggo etc.

    Could well be...so long as they don't tenderize Tondo as well!

    Hesjedal dropped.

    Gerdemann goes (as Harmon predicted he might).
