    If AG2R are trying to play Sky at their own game, they'd better be confident they can make it all the way otherwise all they'll end up with is a full Sky train with 5km to go.

    Important Q: Has Rowe slipped off to claim his extra minutes? I'd hate to think AG2R pulled him too far...

    I'm thinking of buying a second hand watch in the next ten minutes. Where can I find an advertisement?

    Wow, he really doesn't have any friends in the peloton.
    Valgren just gave him a bidon and waved bye bye.

    Is this really as dull a stage as it reads in the forum? No attacks until last 3k then?

    Nice to see a proper climber, they seem to be a dying breed.

    Rowe is currently 14m44s off the front of the race, in the "peloton".

    Leezer, Wagner and Selig are all behind him, but only by a minute so far.

    Yes, but then I'd have been surprised to see a GC contender attack with 8 or 9km to go.

    Merci.

    Leezer is dangerous, I've been saying that since the 1st week.

    That hurt Aru, but blew the rest of AG2R out.

    If I had team Sky rigged up to a generator I reckon I could make a remote cup of tea.
