All done, sad sight to see, he looked in a bad way as he got off the bike, I know its alot of emotions but he almost didnt look there in mind and looked wiped out
Yes, it is sad, but let's look at the important issue here... G is up to 5th!!

Make that 4th.That is a good point, would love to see him on the podium in Paris
Ha, I think it's killing valverde that there's a movistar above him on gc - no way he's risking it for quintana!Is AVV going to have to try something mad to attempt to break Froome and help Qintana, thus putting his 3rd place at risk or will Movistar be happy with 2&3?
TJVG is sick, I don't think it's because of Quintana.
Re TJVG it's all the more ironic that BMC have now signed Porte - Are they praying the bad days will cancel each other out?
Cracking stage again.
Other than Roache staying in no mans land Sky did a pretty decent job.
I can't believe how much of a trademark G's shades were, now he's not wearing them he looks weird.
Froome looked like a yellow jersey wearer should for the up down and up again.
Loving CF's now usual attack in the last 100m, a proper f*** you.
I really felt for Pinot.
Sure we all knew it was going to happen, then it did.
You'd have to be wired a little bit wrong to then carry on as if nothing had happened.
I know I promised I wouldn't but I have to have a P & P grumble.
Froome hanging onto the team car, talking tactics.
We would have heard every word if Liggett wasn't bibbling on about something completely inane.
FFS.
On the P&P note, we get them here in the states as well. Makes me wonder how it works as they do all sorts of channel specific stuff
I think BMC might find themselves with quite a few one week stage race wins from now on. If they were to sign Simon Spilak as well they could totally clean up in that department
Not sure if they have any plans to actually sign a proper GT contender at any point.
Maybe sign Rui Costa for the Tour de Suisse as well. Just let him go before he has a chance to win any proper races...
Though Nibali is rumoured to be moving, BMC would be a little bit of a leap but who else could afford him?
That would indeed be the one week stage race dream team. How many times has Rui Costa won Tour de Suisse now, 4 or 5 already isn't it? Probably only didn't win it this year because he chose to ride the Dauphine instead Spilak, Porte & TJ can draw lots over the rest while Rui goes stage hunting.
I thought that Vino invite to Nibali to do one has now been withdrawn?
Sky wanted him before he went to Astana.Maybe so, but if you are Nibali would you stay there after all this? Vino balling him out because he is not on top form, whilst they send a much much stronger team to the Giro to support Aru. Plus all the doping whispers, I would be gone like a shot if I was Nibali.
Sky wanted him before he went to Astana.
QuickStep could be looking for a change of focus if they don't resign Cav, and Uran heads back to Sky.
That would certainly free up enough cash.
Wiggins moved on because Froome became the number one, and didn't want Wiggins there. Why would Froome move on?Is there not a chance of Froome moving on now a la Wiggins, if so though would that just mean that someone like G would become the main rider or would they bring someone else in like Nibs?
