Tour de France Stage 11
Aha! According to my guidebook, we have another day in the mountains today! 
Oh! 
I forgot to make changes today! No I didn't. 
Valverde will win today or I will eat a sock! No I won't. But I'll stuff it in my mouth and chew it and pretend to swallow, though! Hope today's action on the Tourmalet is very (!) exciting! My prediction? A Movistar 1-2! It won't happen, but wouldn't it be great to see?... On the other hand, I feel sad for the French(http://cyclingquotes.com/news/peraud_and_bardet_lose_ground_in_the_pyren..., http://cyclingquotes.com/news/pinot_i_hope_to_recover_for_the_third_week/), and especiallly Fedrigo (http://cyclingquotes.com/news/fedrigo_it_is_a_lack_of_respect_not_to_awa...), so I hope they do something today! And Purito (http://cyclingquotes.com/news/rodriguez_it_was_a_hunger_knock/), well, he, too deserves another chance today! Somebody on Katusha remind him to eat today! 
Hell, anybody can win today as far as I care, as long as it's not Froooome... Or Pooorte... or... Thooomas... or Poooels... Or Koooonig... Or Roooowe... or Roooche... Or Kennoough... Or Staaaannard...

Breakaway KOM points from days like Stage 11 and tomorrow's Stage 12 are what Road.cc victories are built on... Probably not a good sign that I didn't get any.
Its on le tour website will try and find it when i get home
Does anyone know where we can see how many mountains points are available on each stage?
Real points not fantasy points that is
No changes for me today
Recap of the action so far from the Cyclingnews.com Live Report (http://live.cyclingnews.com/)
12:17:11 CEST
The men out front are Lieuwe Westra (Astana), Michal Kwiatkowski (Etixx-QuickStep), Bob Jungels (Trek Factory Racing) and Edvald Boasson Hagen (MTN-Qhuebka).
12:44:30 CEST
Today's intermediate sprint comes after a third cat climb and is also on an incline, which should suit Sagan better than Greipel.
13:10:17 CEST
It's gruppo compatto now as the four escapees were finally reeled in at the 47km mark.
13:11:43 CEST
Thomas Voeckler makes a brief move off the front with a Bretagne-Séché rider but they are brought back in.
13:13:02 CEST
Voeckler did pick up the mountains points though.
