    Ten Dam like a werewolf with his prey in sight, saliva and snot all over his stubble.

    Only Rogers and Porte left for Wiggins. Froome, Pate done their work. 40odd left in the bunch. Rolland goes!

    Has Harmon got this right? Another 6km to climb. I thought it was about 2km left to climb and 24km from the summit to the finish.

    What is the point of going for it a few 100m from the summit. 30km isnt too far to take the bull by the horns. You only win when you go for it.

    True. Although I hear the wind is pretty strong out there.

    But then I guess there is a TT tomorrow...and Wiggins having what skills he has...although LLS isnt a slouch at the TT having won the Nat title.
