    I reckon Wout really wants this one

    Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.

    He's had two 2nds, a 3rd, a 4th a 5th and a 6th. That's got to be the top finishing not to have won a stage yet.

    He isn't there to come 2nd ... I guess a hedge too for any nonsense behind which looks unlikely

    Yesterday he was a hedge. Today he's branching out for himself, if he's not bushed.

    I'm guessing the UAE DSes have sat Pog in the corner with a exercise book writing out "I will not attack on every stage" several hundred times over....

    After a manic start it's all looking rather placid in the peloton.

    Healey burned his matches on that previous attack. It could have paid off if the three that bridged has done some work with him.

    Ethical dilemma here, is it OK for the son of a former World Champion to wear a rainbow jersey?
