Man, I'm always planning on watching the last 45-60 minutes of every flat stage to see if a breakaway group can stay away and win it, but everytime I forget to put on the tele . Can't watch Saturday but will definitely find a way to tune in on Sunday. Who are you guys cheering for? I'm glad Froome is now leading the team instead of Wiggins (most boring tour winner ever). Other than that I hope Contador will do well and maybe the Dutch guys can win a stage (Laurens ten Dam/Robert Geesink). I hope Mollema can get a top 10 ranking as well. ten Dam will be the last one of that team to get a stage win if you ask me. Mollema could even get a top5 if all goes well On July 04 2013 18:57 BenKen wrote: Ah I forgot about this! So I guess Talansky is the new American hope? I don't follow year cycling year round, just enjoy the TDF broadcast. Talansky and also Van Garderen. I'm not 100% sure on their roles though as they have other GC riders in their teams + Van Garderen was involved in that big crash on the first day. | ||

I don't follow the sport much (only usually the TDF) but I remember ten Dam attacking a lot last year. Would be even more awesome if Mollema can place top 5 indeed! | ||

Todays stage was pretty straight forward I had no doubts the breakaway being reeled back in, and the finish was pretty much textbook for Sagan Nice victory for him though! | ||

Some of them might be in the breakaway tomorrow and sunday, but as I said I don't see one of them winning tomorrow. | ||
