nice

YES! wondered where Bentacur had gone, CyclingNews said it was sanchez in third!!
Finally got the podium badge! been so close so many times!!!

1,2,3,5,6,13

Not so bad after all. No Santambrogio, but still five riders in the points included Nibali and Betancur. Wonder how long it'll take for all the points to be worked out?

Santambrogio now up to fourth in GC. A podium finish would be extraordinary for him and his team.

1,2,3 on standard and Purist is nice. think everyone else had Nibbles and Uran too, so it comes down to who got the best "bit parts". I have Majka, Pellizotti and Niemec so reasonably happy with that.

Feel sorry for poor Battaglin he has served me well, wish hime a speedy recovery, one to watch in the future, and that is another of my purists gone! Starting to look a bit depleted my team there now.

1,2,3,5,6,11,15 & a team bonus for Di Luca, plus GC and the jerseys. I think I come out with 215.

All in all a much better day on here than I had on my bike today.

Average day.

Gavazzi narrowly beaten into Lanterne Rouge by Haas.

1,2,3,5,6,11 plus gc , young un , points and mountain rankings ..... Gonna wait on tomorrow stage news before any changes I think

yipee great day for me

Quite a few 190+ scores today by the looks

1,2,3,5,6,7. Happy with that.

WHY is there no live TV??

Reports coming in, Tomorrow is TOTALLY cancelled. There will be NO racing....

15 riders have attacked off the front of the peleton.

The race organisers have not excluded the possibility of the abandonment of tomorrow's stage.

Trentin is being dropped by the other three

It has now been confirmed Cenis and Galibier have been excuded from the race.

Typical French/Italian discussions then....

I thought Galibier was out and that the decision was all about Col du Mont Cenis

There are still avalanche's on Galibier, so I doubt they will be clearing it in time.
