Le Tour de France - starts 30 June 2012

Is this Peter Sagan's first appearance in the tour? I've only watched him in the Tour of California up to now.
 
I just don't understand how they can be so bad at time trialling, the threshold training you do for climbing mountains must be relatively applicable to TTing and by now they should have adapted.

Climbing is about power:weight ratio. TTing is more about pure power.

What would happen if it peed down with rain? Would they halt the time trial?
They would just continue. It would be unfortunate for the late starters but thats just how it works.

Interesting to see what Cancellara/Evans will do though.
I dont think Evans will beat wiggins, but cancellara will win :)
 
Superb ride by Cancellara, I didn't think he'd do it this year with the year he's had so far! Wiggins done v well though and a great ride by Tejay Van Garderen in fourth place!
 
I'm sick of all these Apple adverts. Where's the Skoda one from last year? I liked that. :D

I'd forgotten about that, it was on so much that the song used was really starting to annoy after a while.

I think thats the only annoyance with watching the Tour, constant ad breaks, but they are pretty much the same ads every time.
