Which 2 Sky riders are with TB gruppo?
Stannard is one

 

[Crackle]

Luke Rowe?

 

[raindog]

Don't know. I've got this on the 'puter and Scotland/Italy on the telly.
It's going to be a tough afternoon.

Luke Rowe?

If only we had Liggett to make a stab in the dark

Me too and weirdly I have the sound of cycling in Dutch and the rugby commentary in English on mute

 

[Apollonius]

Luke Rowe in the front pack for Sky. Is that Boonen and Vanmaerke with him? Edit, no, it is Stannard.

 

[rich p]

Hard to see Stannard getting any change out of 3 Ettix men!

 

[Apollonius]

Stannard Terpstra Boonen and one other Ettix getting away now. No response from the pack.

 

[raindog]

Stannard should be OK though. He must be feeling bloody strong to be up there in the first place.

He can't chase down every every attack though

 

[Crackle]

He needs that 2nd group to catch or to attack.

 

[Apollonius]

Quality stuff. Leaders being chased by Stybar and Vandembouke also being chased by Chavanel and Gilbert.

 

[raindog]

He needs that 2nd group to catch or to attack.

They're doing it, too. They'll be pretty knackered though.

 

[rich p]

Stybar to benefit?

Gone out to 24 secs again
