    Guess you figured Team Colombia are going to send Chalapud out for KOM , as you to went him over Duarte as I 🙂

    Hansen V Majka……..CMON Aussie good luck.

    yea well i’ve brought in Duarte twice already, and he just hasn’t delivered, I know he probably will today now, but yea figured Chalapud has to go on the attack today!

    Go Majka!! 😉

    I know Hansen is targeting a stage, not sure if it’s todays though?

    Yeah I bought Duarte in day before he came 2nd, and backed him at 66/1 as I had read he was keen to win a stage for his new born daughter and lives and trains nearby to that finish. 🙂
    Hansen is climbing better then ever this year, and maybe he thinks they will right him off in a break over the mtns, so he give it a go 🙂
    PS I like MAGIC a lot , the Pols impressed the hell out of me last year.

    BTW where are all the Cadel
    BTW where are all the Cadel baggers to have a go at QUINTANA , he clearly went around a vehicle holding a RED FLAG!!!!!!!!!!
    He made over 1min on decent alone.
    Way worst then what Cadel did as they actually broke OFFICIAL RULES.

    Was reading the other day from a rider the ETITTEQUE is to slow down for BIKE MECHANICALS cant be avoided, not falls as can be avoided by staying up FRONT.

    Tour etiquette dictates that rivals do not take advantage of another rider’s misfortune concerning the mechanics of the bike. And, as soon as he realised what was happening, Team Sky’s lead rider called for a truce.

    Previews seem 50/50 for a
    Previews seem 50/50 for a break or GC finish. My opinion; Uran and Evans both seem vulnerable; Quintana will want to put in more time into Uran ahead of tomorrows TT; riders from Rolland down to Hesjedal will be trying to push Evans out of third spot. Hence 7 teams will want a hard race; (not many days left to improve); so I predict the breakaway won’t make it.
    7 out of the top 9 riders can be fitted into a team; the question is, will Arredondo and Henao combined exceed, lets say, Hesjedal’s score.
