    Well ridden by Schachmann there - just about kept a lid on things.

    Well, it wasn't a climbers climb, if Benoot could drop Higuita and Schachmann could hold on for the overall.

    im ruding that climb in the Etape, if it goes ahead. They managed to make it look easy, somehow I doubt anyone watching me will get the same impression

    It doesn't look too difficult at all - no high altitude and fairly consistent gradient. May be hot though, but a lot easier than some of the recent climbs in the Etape.

    Suspect I'll be in the first pen this year (if it goes ahead). Some seriously good descenders up in the front 2 pens!

    Those roads looked lovely. I want to go ride there.

    ive stayed out there a few times. Some really decent climbs, usually get past by loads of pros going twice my speed.
