    For a company that make very cool ski helmets, POC clearly have no idea when it comes to cycling.

    Bauer's crash sounds nasty - hope he's not too badly hurt.

    Cav for the stage win then?!

    Bauer crashed face first into a barbed wire fence apparently....if true that does not sound good.
    Not looking good either: https://twitter.com/Pflax1/status/35818 ... 60/photo/1 (lots of blood if that worries you)

    Cavendish, Kwia, Pineau and Sep have over 3mins on the peloton.


    Cavendish turns into crack climber overnight. This raises huge suspicions. Show us the data.

    Riblon dropped from the group he was in, Nieve to take advantage? He has some help too.

    Not good, but could have been a hell of a lot worse. Poor guy.

    seems the ticker is wrong, Cav's group about to get caught by the peloton. I wonder if this was an attempt to get Cav up the road a bit and in less danger of being caught out by the time limit?

    Froome`s arms are disgustingly skinny. Not far off Rasmussen. When he finsishes his career as a hot shot cyclist he should start selling his methodology for going from chubby to borderline anorexic.

    If he wasn't so visibly skinny you'd just be complaining about how such a big guy could get up mountains like he does. We get it, you don't like him.

    Pretty difficult to look tough when dressed like that anyway!

    Both Hesjedal and Martin climb with the distinctive style of hands on the centre of the bars.

    of course if he'd been taught how to fall properly his wrists would've been out the way and he'd have took it on his chest.

    Who won an epic mano a mano duel with evil old Michael Rasmussen in the 2007 Tour?

    Trouble is the dude got up to give him a smack for tripping him and the guy who tripped him up hid behind his missus ... he'll never live that down ...

    Rolland bridged to Hesjedal. Perky.

    So I can safely go to my PM meetings without it kicking off on GC then?

    Went over the Croix Fry last month.

    On my Brompton.

    In a trilby.

    You should have seen the faces of the boys on the Time Megeve Sportif when they passed me

    :D
