    This is as boring as this years Flanders - 200+ km of ball-scratching followed by a brief flurry of activity.

    Vanendert or however you spell it looks veery comfortable. (clutching at straws here. Have already fallen asleep twice).


    Freire's still there.

    *yawn*

    Still, chasing downhill in the wet is their forte, isn't it?

    I think the next Côte will be a Côte du Rhône with my name on it. Perhaps booze will help.

    Rolland looking pretty good. Obviously the break is doomed, but I fancy him to do something in Romandie.

    Gilbert with no team mates left and forced to chase at the front of group 3. Not good.

    OK.

    Cards on the table.

    Nibs has got this.


    23 with 15km to go is LOADS.

    if they dont react soon then yes. But i think he was hoping for somebody to go with him. not sure he can stay away. but if he does then good on him...

    40 seconds now.

    Game over.

    Nibs deserves it - only one to actaully have the balls to do something.

    The thing I love about this race is that the run-in is so picturesque :lol:

    Yep. If he holds on for a podium it'll be incredible.
