    20 minutes to the deadline so not much harm in revealing my team

    My team

    Christopher Froome (SKY)
    Mikel Nieve Ituralde (EUS)
    Nairo Alexander Quintana Rojas (MOV)
    Roman Kreuziger (SAX)
    Tony Martin (OPQ)
    Murilo Antonio Fischer (FDJ)
    Christophe Le Mevel (COF)
    William Bonnet (FDJ)

    Hoping that the 5 above me haven’t gone with Martin and he wins today, I don’t think he’ll be out of the top 5 today anyway. Those climbs will suit a proper TT’er.

    1,6,11,12,19 for me – happy
    1,6,11,12,19 for me – happy with my transfers considering my other options involved Tony Martin. Talansky with a nice 9th place for my purists, but there are a few teams with Quintana that will be surging past me soon…

    Awesome stage – great win for
    Awesome stage – great win for Froome!

    Mollema came back well at the end.

    Monfort the best of the sub-15-credit riders in 12th.

    The Spaniards look primed for the Alps…

    So-so for my team with Martin
    So-so for my team with Martin and Castroviejo not doing well. De Gendt 19th.

    Schleck 15th!!

    Kreuziger would have been the best pick today.

    Got Froome Quintana De Gendt.
    Got Froome Quintana De Gendt. Seems Martin and Castroviejo were a waste but the rain affected their ride I believe. Should have gone GC instead. Still got 5 transfers for tomorrow though.

    Looks like Quintana going to beat Kwia now he’s the leader. And he does. Should have ridden like that the first time. Then he’d be challenging Froome. Stupid Movistar!

    Peraud very unlucky. Was thinking about him as well.

    Kreuziger now 2nd.

    Holy…?!
    Schleck currently

    Holy…?!

    Schleck currently sitting third at the end of the stage. Was not expecting that!

    Kind of wish I’d kept him in now after the weekend, wonder if he’ll try for a stage win later in the week…

    Also, Schleck is faster than TJVG at the first check…
