    So who we all thinking will be first home today?

    I’m hoping for something better than my last two days, but as with anything in this race, its so hard to pick on because everything changes with the wind direction and the weather, they are even talking about snow redirecting the route this week

    Moncoutie in a crash! He is usually so careful behind the peloton. Hope he is okay … always good for a mountain stage when he feels like it!

    I’d like a Boonen repeat, chased in by Lepheimer . . . with Brad in 21st, but same time as Leipheimer.

    I adore Specialized S-Works
    I adore Specialized S-Works Prevail. I’m planning to get one soon.

    And for today, I’m hoping that Valverde will fly:)

    Agree, though a bigger fan of the Lazer Helium used by other teams after my bike shop show me one that hit a lightpost at 40kph in a crit and the head that was in it, still attached to the mechanic.

    my transfers today are for once defensive, Wiggins and Vanmarcke (the two on form riders).

    Looking at the teams around me if Vivani wins, I plummet

    If Boonen outperforms Valdverde today, I gain, if not I lose.

    If Degenkolb repeats, happy dance time 😉

    I was going to bring in Westra and Boonen, along with Levi and TeeJ, but i think that would have just me banking on some safe points and i figure, if i’m not going to catch the leaders up, i might as well try for a high stage score at some point, i’d rather not be doing in the grand tours, so this is one of few chances, unless my whole classics team does well. But with them being classed all together and only a few transfers here and there, thats going to be hard
