    So by the rules, they should DQ the entire peloton apart from the group that stopped and the breakaway.

    Everyone else, get 'em out.

    Sad that people are laughing at Thomas's crash - looks like it's going to be stannard who's going to be the leader as Wiggins is trailing halfway down the peleton.

    For some reason, during that short board wobble I've decided to start a business in Macedonia.

    Nah, look a few pages back and you'll see what it's all about.

    Wasn't quite sure why they were bringing Pinarello into it!

    Hmmm... i'm still not convinced that the break is as benign as people think... it will take a bit of effort to bring them back

    EDIT:L and that effort will decimate the peloton

    That's what Quick Step pay 2/3 of their riders for.

    We may see some echelon action in a few minutes if the position of the break is anything to go by.
