    Well the usual breakaway for this stage, but will it last or will the likes of OPQS come to the fore so Meersman can all but wrap up the points jersey.

    Decision time for transfers, no doubt there will be a lot of people swapping Bertie / JRod for Froome / Valverde.

    Heh heh! :)

    And as I said not long afterwards his price for breakaway points doesn’t make it worth sacrificing anyone , now in the tdf it would be different because if it doesn’t work a couple of bad days aren’t too bad , in a week long race, it’s suicide as I have found out , if you get things wrong

    Ah, today is my kind of day… A day of heroics… Chavanel tried, Rolland tried and here comes Tommy Voeckler! Go Tommy! đŸ™‚

    I’d say De Gendt is a good bet for tomorrow and Rolland for the day after! đŸ™‚

    Looking for a Van rensburg Viviani Meersman 1-2-3 with Vachon thrown in there somewhere as well. Along with damuseau and veilleux in the break. And if froome, Porte and Dennis can manage some finish line points then that would top it off….

    Oh yes, very similar here.. Although I’ve gone bouhanni over viviani, couldnt help myself, im a bit frog you see đŸ™‚
