I'd be amazed! I'd like to see Kennaugh do it.....he's been so close for a few years now......I'm not a Bibby fan....but he's the only non Sky rider I can see getting it....I'm a big fan of Kristian House so would love to see him take it for a second time.

In France it's Sylvain Chavanel vs Europcar, with The Chav just over a minute clear with 20k to go

According to Rich's twitter feed link, Mark Christian is also in the break....good effort that!

Doobz

yea true.

I am watching Spanish, French, Belgian and Netherlands races and the french one is by far the best..

Chavanel misses the break at first. Then jumps across to lead group 1 min up the road and then jumps them and puts one min into them, now riding solo on his own

0:58 ahead with 15K to go with 4 chasers.. Cmon Chavanel..

e2a: Well it was 4 chasing, now its 2..

Looks like Voeckler doing the chasing..

Brammeier add the Irish RR title to the TT title.

RichN95.

France: 1. Chavanel, 2. Roux, 3, Voeckler

Holland: 1. Pim Ligthart, 2. Bram Tankink

FJS

Pim Ligthart wins sprint for Dutch title - don't think he'll be in the TdF; or Sagan; or Wagner?

RichN95.

Ireland:

1. Matt Brammeier (HTC)
2. Dan Martin (Garmin)
3. David McCann (Giant Kenda)
4. Nicolas Roche (Ag2r)
5. Sam Bennett (An Post Sean Kelly)

Amusingly, none of these riders were born in the Republic of Ireland

You should have waited to post that, in case Froome wins the GB title

Dan Fleeman is in the break not Jake Martin.......go on Dan!....he's a second claim at my club, and a good guy

Doobz

Going to really enjoy the French Champs jersey lighting up (#TMFF) the Tour for the 2nd year in succession,

Six have gone clear in the UK: Thomas, Wiggins, Kennaugh, Stannard, House and Bibby

As much as I like an underdog, it would be nice to see it in the Tour...
