    They're like unstacked Russian dolls in Kaisen, Balloni, Rubiano order. Massive, average and tiny.

    I actually fancy a pair. Would look good with a black top.
    It's not so much about winning, I just hate losing.

    Polish champ crashes, stands around, shrugs, changes his shoes, does a sudoku... Stephen Roche will be fuuuuuurious.

    Some outrageous pushing there.

    Nah, he'll be fine. His jersey was fully zipped.

    I'll usually defend sprinter's stages but this is dull so far. 4 days of Dunkirk's been good though.

    Some interesting corners and road furniture though.

    Oooh. Unlucky Phinney.

    He was trying to put his head in some guy's armpit, that's why.

    Real messy. Tense riders. Good last 1.5km.

    Is this the Giro or the Eneco?

    What a woeful stage.

    Thomas Geraint did a great job of making space for Cav

    Stannard, Thomas, Cav. All very impressive.

    Where did Thomas finish in the end? Presumably high enough to pick some points seeing as he led Cav out and there was carnage behind - so maybe he'll pick up the points jersey?
