    Seems strange to see Cipo with a shirt on...

    Could there be consequences for Paolini and Katusha after his shoulder bump on the pink jersey today?

    Given the fact that the first Katusha rider home was 55th, shows you that they're all mouth and no balls.

    I'm not normally one to wish pro-cyclists ill but it would have been poetic justice if a Katusha rider had come off and broken a collar bone although the above suggest that the chance of that happening was pretty unlikely

    Bouhanni is one of the few FDJ riders to whom I don't particularly warm but he definitely deserved that win. Not only for the chase back after the mechanical but also the dare-devil maneuvering to avoid at least one crash directly in front of him and the second chase to get back on to that six man, Giant dominated group, after being held up by the crash.

    What a crap stage, I thought stage 3 was a poorly designed stage but it didn't have a patch on that one!

    Seeing as there's been bugger all action save for 10 mins at the end of each stage in Italy, watching the live broadcast I feel it's me on Tramadol at the moment never mind the peleton

    Looks like a "no kiss" policy for the podium. Perhaps political correctness has governed this decision. I can understand if they stop the champagne celebration (if not agreeing with it) but no kissy? Come on. :?:
