    Doesn't look like a too bad profile the whole week.

    Bog standard prologue.

    Pan flat stage.

    A mini GW stage

    A mini Ardenne (easy-ish) stage.

    Another flat stage.

    Pretty fast times.

    Keukelaire's average speed was 57kph :shock:

    Looks like Gilbert missed out by one second to Westra. Highlights?! I can wait.

    51km/h. Assuming 5.6km and 6.36mins are correct.

    What a rider. Contador might have to stop hogging all of that space on his True Champion podium.

    Yeah Gilbert has balls bigger than Gilbraltar.

    He races, acts and performs like a champion certainly. The fans love him, the sport loves him. Ride aggressively, be a nice guy and you wont be far off the mark.
