    Jo Sun!

    Eyes down for another sprint stage before we reach the Vosges.
    Two little climbs before the finish should not be an issue.
    Weather forecast the now usual fare - cloudy with a chance of rain, 15 degrees C and cross/tailwinds. The longest stage on the tour at almost 235km.

    My predictions:

    1. Early break containing Bretagne Seche rider.
    2. Cheng on the front for at least 80km
    3. Several crashes.
    4. Kittel for the win
    5. Stefano's trousers will be an alarming shade of blue

    On dry roads on a climb!!!!!!!

    Loses around 50s straight away. Pace definitely high.
    Nice to see Sammy Dumoulin there.

    More predictions...

    6. Carlton Kirby's obsession with roundabouts to continue.
    7. Sean will say, "certaintly" (though he doesn't do it as much as he used to, I think).
    8. Sagan will finish in the top 5.
    9. Someone will make a joke about entering Nancy.
    10. I will continue to post nonsense......

    Talking of riding styles, do all the Europcar riders have lessons in emulating Tommy V?
