    I haven't watched any of it.

    Lance isn't blown away by Porte, despite the win, FWIW.

    Don't think there was anything to be blown away by. Takes a load of time on a TTT, has a TT in hand, no parcours to set up a challenge. I don't think it's a race that tells us anything other than that BMC can put out a useful TTT

    He was 14th on the TT, which I'd suggest is quite poor. It's still a big step up from this 'biggest win of his career' to the Tour.

    Double post.

    Didn't see a single stage but just trying to boost the thread count! :mrgreen:

    If a bike race takes place and nobody watches, does it really happen?
    No. The peloton should roll to a halt and climb off.
