Tour de France 2014 in UK

Certainly starting to feel that someone is going to have to do something other than sit back and play the waiting game. Hoping for a good stage today :)

I reckon Contador will be in yellow by the end of the day.

I think the gap is too big to be lost in 1 day. Gallopin probably won't keep it but i think it will go back to nibali again. Astana also have westra up front who can help nibali later.
 
Yup, looks like he's trying to get going, but he's losing a lot of time.

Lots of blocking of the road as well there, should really have moved some of those guys out of the way. Back moving though.....9 minutes down though. ouch.


EDIT:- losing more time getting treatment while riding now.

You may be right, not least with Contador falling and losing bags of time...
 
hehe, was going to ask if that was a new bike as they were messing with the brakes. I thought it was but figured there wouldn't be brake problems on a new bike. Snapped frame answers that one :p

With his team now, they've got a hard ride to catch up.

EDIT:- before they were playing with the brakes he was 4 minutes back from them. not sure if he lost a bit of time since then, actually thought he was gaining a bit while being pushed on the bike, yeah, quite a bit 8;30 now, peleton about 5mins off the front.
