    Andy Fen - 3rd puncture of the day.

    Sporza speculating on Sky kit quality.

    Don't be a dick. We're laughing at the self-mocking nature of the post where someone had accused Thomas of crashing earlier when he punctured and then highlighted his posting mistake later.

    Would like to see big Stijn vandenbergh win as he's always doing the donkey work for somebody ....and it's obvious or a bluff from Sky about Wiggins they should just go with big Stan the man
