Tour of Alberta SPOILERS

[rich p]

Sagan wins the prologue
No sprinters of note around
Flat stages thereafter
Sagan therefore wins stage 2
...ad nauseam?

Ryder thought he'd won a stage.

 

[Crackle]

Alberta is a crucial country to get in Risk if you want to invade Russia, who knew there was a tour there. It doesn't even work as a joke, Alberta.....if she'll let me.....no, it doesn't work. I may have to have a look and see what's it like. I presume they don't need ice tyres just yet.

David Millar commemorates Ryder's success...

Love the way they start the description of stage 2 on the website:

On Planet Sagan there are no other competitors only second-place finishers

It's a province, and a couple more weeks yet.

I beg your pardon, province.

you were saying ?

you were saying ?

Quite so! What do I know!
Sagan being such a red hot favourite means that nobody will assist Cannondale. Being such a favourite has backfired on him in some Classics too; likewise Cav in the past.
It's a good thing though and Dennis has some serious potential.

 

[Strathlubnaig]

Revised Queen stage today, not what they planned but should be interesting anyways

Ooh, I'm getting all nostalgic. Cadel just won a stage!
