    Well I really enjoyed the stage yesterday – exciting racing and amazing views. Today looks tougher, so question is, can Sagan/Haussler/van Avarmaet/Boonen et al still get over the hills with the lead group? I think yes, but if not then it could be a sprint between the non-sprinters, much like the early stages in the Basque country and Romandie…

    Well its Kittel out and GVA out for two GC guys. Hoping I have the break guy for today too, after he lost 6 minutes yesterday and will wanna go for th mountains jersey

    Yeah, shame about Bouet, it made it even more exciting to watch though! Maybe he’ll go for KOM points today?

    I’ve dropped both my guys that didn’t stay with the lead group yesterday, and brought in 2 GC guys, so feel like I have a fairly balanced team. Hoping not to have to make any transfers tomorrow, then 2 before stage 4 and 4 before the TT…

    Think the lumps at the end
    Think the lumps at the end are too big for 3 out of the 4 that you mentioned….
    Have to agree with you on yesterdays stage…..Stunning backdrop and without having the glitz of the Giro,it felt like proper bike racing…. 🙂
