    BMC go the front with 6 men. Nibali like a total boss moves up 10m no problem and slots into the middle of them!

    Paolini did unless Kristoff had one earlier. Apparently there are a fair few riders off the back.

    Why do Sky riders refer to Nieve as "Frosty"?

    Unless he's off the back because he stopped to post on an internet forum I don't think you should be commenting on how well he's doing his job. No?

    It's slightly darker than his Cannondale jersey but I wouldn't go that far!

    Typical exchange between Carlton and Kelly just now.

    Carlton (in standard panic-inducing breathy voice): Oh no there is standing water here, Sean. When you ride over standing water you might as well be riding on black ice!

    Kelly: Well as long as you're riding in a straight line it's not really a problem.

    If the route doesn't have any corners, bends or roundabouts we'll be OK then.
