    It's not going to happen as the original poster doesn't check often. Best bet is to start one from scratch.

    Bouhanni and Modolo will have fried their trains. Plan B sprinter opportunity.

    Bouhanni, Modolo ...


    The climb doesn't really look like a cat 1 - 600m over 9k, less than halfway in.

    Early finish for this one then.

    Congratulations Bouhanni, your first big win of the year. Will make him pretty happy.

    Bouhanni all over the place and still wins by metres.
    GC boys beware of the crazy Cofidis boys. Bouncing of the OGE train.
    Lucky there's only one sprint left.

    Anyone know what the little bracket like piece is under the rear of the saddles on some of the bikes? Caught a glimpse of some on stage 1.

    Lights-out for Lampre as Cofidis declare Martial Law. Comfy win for a handy looking Nasser.

    For the love of the grand unifying entity, can we please have the ***Spoiler*** warning added to the thread title. Its absence is doing my nut in.

    Ulrika's rack would attract plenty of admirers with Kennaugh in their livery.

    Sorry dude... When I started this thread it was merely to locate a destination and didn't realise it would be used as an official CdD thread each day... I see Admin have answered your call...

    Think today's TTT could begin to set some gaps and begin to make this race exciting as we head towards the high mountain stages... Awful TTT results at the Giro...

    It was a smokescreen for my OCD. I don't even care about today's start times.

    Will be interesting to see if Astana set an early benchmark.

    If the Secret Pro is riding, he'll complain that they didn't stop for ice cream.

    Its a shame Movistar didn't get that. On paper they look pretty strong whereas BMC look so so. Must be that young superstar Teuns.
