    Does Carlton Kirby have to scream and shout like that?

    Millar has the same polo shirt as me. Luckily I don't have the same hat as him.

    Top loosening up from Fuglsang there.

    Think they thought it was him again when Nibs went, from the complete lack of reaction.

    Kwia got 3rd so at least I got some money back.

    I think Froome and Contador will be happy with that. They only lost two seconds and Nibali/Astana get all the pressure of the yellow jersey.

    That aftershow LeMond thingy with that cheesy eurotrashy presenter is cringeworthy :D

    Great stage. Wonderful course.

    Hat to Nibs. Only GC guy who's done much in LBL.

    Think the others will be happy with that.
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    Sagan a bit too visible. Then no one will chase for him.

    Great move by Nibali, very good team work by Fuglsang.
    Pity there are no bonifications.
    Sagan is like the plague.
    Good to see a meaningful selection made so early on in the Tour, instead of how it often pans out with TTTs and sprinter stages.
    Andy at 1-17, I think.

    And I made some money, which is the main thing.

    High praise indeed. Thought at first your account had been hacked ;-)

    Excellent ride from Astana, played the finish perfectly. Nice to see the GC boys giving it a go.

    Cut off time should be around 28 minutes - they should all make that (maybe Petacchi won't)

    Sagan in danger of being jack of all trades, master of none.

    Green jersey by default?

    Great stage fantastically supported. Well done Yorkshire. Anyone thing of a more entertaining early stage in recent memory?

    I hope none of you picked Rodriguez for GC. Lost 15 minutes.
