    Well after nearly 140 quotes on the prologue / stage 1 post lets see what people are doing for stage 2. It’s the only flat stage for the sprinters so who’s in and who’s out for tommorow. 😕

    Happy with Boonen and
    Happy with Boonen and Degenkolb in the break, 2 out 3 likely top 3 finishers.

    But other than TJVG only 3 riders in break and scoring potential

    Defending Paris-Nice champion
    Defending Paris-Nice champion Tony Martin has also been trapped in one of the back echelons.

    Km 130 – The 21 in the front lead the yellow jersey group by 1:40. Among the riders in the yellow jersey group feature Damiano Cunego and Sandy Casar.

    Damn, Martin couldn’t make the lead group. I was hoping for him to come through and give me a load of points after everyone dropping him

    Looks like my plan to drop TJ Van Garderen is already falling to bits 🙁

    Fingers crossed for a Phinney Boonen 1-2 and for TJVG to end up in a ditch!

    A crash took place in the leading group, holding six riders: Clarke, Niermann, Leukemans, Fischer, Haussler

    Here is the composition of the leading group: Boonen, Chavanel, Leipheimer, Maes, Monfort, Wiggins, Thomas, Valverde, Rojas, Gavazzi, Kiserlovski, Westra, Ravard, Van Garderen, Jeanneteau, Klier, Vanmarcke, Maaskant, Phinney, Spilak, Vicioso.

    Just checked and a nice round 0% of teams will be getting a breakaway bonus for Kaisen.

    Re Martin I really can’t see him doing anything in the race now, and he’ll surely be leading out for Boonen today?
