Nibali doesn't take any sh*t does he? Mad Italian!

Belgians looking fairly organized too. And they have the best looking jerseys.

Enjoying this a lot. I think we are going to see an insane final sprint up the last climb. There's quite a few riders this will suit: Gilbert, Nordhaug, EBH, Gerrans, Henao, Uran, JTL, Dan Martin, Moreno, Nibali... it's completely unpredictable. Fantastic!

Mass sprint up the Cauberg and 1 mile drag race could be fun!

 

[Dangermouse]

JLT will get this........I have every confidence, he,s just biding his time

 

[raindog]

This is real frickin' racing this is.....

 

[Flying_Monkey]

Damn, Contador and Rodriguez are both still there. They are both certainly in with a chance. It would be nice to see Purito win it.

 

[Noodley]

JTL has put on an impressive showing today, certainly answered if he can ride beyond 200k!!

 

[Dangermouse]

He will do well Noodley, very well........my money is on hime if he keeps this up

JTL innit?
Moving nearer the front

 

[Strathlubnaig]

UCI rules forbid a summit finish, so the 1500m flatter bit after it will be really interesting. Anyone could take this (as flying monkey says)

 

[Pedrosanchezo]

haha, would love to see JTL win it but unlikely considering his opposition. Where the F is Sagan??

 

[rich p]

Stannard has done an immense job

 

[Pedrosanchezo]

Stannard is a machine.

Hugh Porter is deploying cliches in his trademark style. He's in "imperious form". Quite literally "saturated with talent".
