    There’s a surprise, Taaramae tried a break, I knew he’d be on it today, but he didn’t get away.

    No breaks as yet, but 6 dropped riders with only 30km done

    Dropped riders
    BERNAUDEAU Giovanni……..He BETTER come in LAST TODAY X(
    SPRICK Matthieu
    LANCASTER Brett
    URTASUN PEREZ Pablo

    The question is – will Phil Liggett keep getting Kiserlovski and Kessiakoff mixed up now that the former isn’t even racing? 😉

    Stage winner had 215 and have 4/5 of the final break guys :”(

    164 for a purist with only 7 riders left should be great in my quest for top premium purist 😉

    If i’m going to win, I need Bernaudeau or Boeckmans to come in last, as Grivko has already come in at 45th.

    EDIT, Bernaudeau 124th and Boeckmans 161st

    Kern in at 162……He might be last AGAIN X(

    So-so day for me. Big mistake
    So-so day for me. Big mistake taking out Sagan. Waste of 2 transfers as I’m bringing him back for tomorrow when who knows he might decide to have a rest. Going to drop a bit. Seem to be doing better in the sprint stages this year then the mountains. Last climb too far away from the finish to produce any fireworks. TdF has organised this badly. Should have some better stages for the weekend with at least one mountain top finish.

    Izagirre did well. His best finish ever in the TdF. Now which EUS rider to choose for 16 and 17. Might leave in Urtasun for 15 as he prefers flat stages it seems.

    Quote:but the 14th stage of

    but the 14th stage of the 2012 race will be remembered for the sabotage that threatened to influence the overall classification. Eventually cool heads prevailed and the biggest potential loser of the stage, Cadel Evans was given a lifeline by his main rivals who all realised that attacking a rider who was a victim of what the competition director of the Tour, Jean-François Pescheux claimed was sabotage

    So the director must have seen evidence of something
