    De Gendt is 15′ 44” back.
    De Gendt is 15′ 44” back. Don’t think he’ll win by that kind of margin. But they might stay out to win as they are good climbers, but it’s 50k to the finish so it’ll be hard later on. Depends if they have a head or tailwind maybe. Had De Gendt earlier on for 3/4 stages and was toying with the idea of him instead of Valverde for the ICTT, but I won’t now.

    Taaramae and De Gendt lead the main bunch by 2:40.

    Finally, I get a rider in the break. Hallelujah! 😀

    I suggest you go read the
    I suggest you go read the preview on inrng

    The finish: flat and on the sea front, ideal for a sprint. The stage might have some big climbs and descents but it’ll be hard for the GC riders to get time on each other, especially since the final 2okm are on wider roads where an organised team can neutralise any rivals. Wiggins has a strong team …

    Sticking with Haussler and Boonen today, just had to clear enough budget for Levi & TJVG for tomorrow so picked up Simon for the sprint replacing Navarro who did nothing up to yesterday, go into the break and scored 0 in KOM or PC points..

    Took out Pauriol(retired
    Took out Pauriol(retired anyway) and Tejay for Boonen and Porte…..hoping for a bunch sprint with the finish more than 50km from the final peak and that Boonen makes up what I’m losing in guaranteed White Jersey points for Tejay.

    Porte in case there’s a breakaway that sticks……I’d fancy him to be in it to protect Wiggins,and for the final stage full stop.

    Wiggins
    Haussler
    Boonen
    Leipheimer
    Veuchelen
    Westra
    Porte
    Moreno
    Spilak

    DeGendt and Sanchez will probably come in for Boonen and Haussler tomorrow if all works to plan 😀

    Hutarivich (FDJ) et Kittel
    Hutarivich (FDJ) et Kittel (PRO)already struggling. Europcar active in trying to get a breakaway so maybe Voeckler will have a go.
