    Steve! No Cheng Ji to pull them along though so this is why they are going to slow and this stage is taking forever.

    The ITV 4 team have clearly been reading this thread...
    De Ghent is doing his best, and though Cheng Ji is not riding this year he is, in his own way, always with us...

    Like Haimar.


    and the poor

    And prostitution.


    and taxes

    And war.

    and disease

    Yep, I stopped picking him for PTP today as he's been nowhere so far!

    Fair play to Julien Simon who got Laporte almost to the flamme rouge single handed amidst the multi million pound WT teams and then Laporte sprints for a very respectable 5th

    I was going to pick Grone until I learnt about the 400 m at 4% shortly before the line, which I didn't think he'd cope with as well as Sagan might.

    Cav saying he thought it was going well, "floating" in the last k or so, until Bora and Quickstep kicked, they are just at a higher level. Cav says his power was actually pretty good.
