So stoked for this, hoping for an attacking ride from the other GC'ers to try and claim back time!

I'm predicting we'll see Nibali stopping for a coffee at the top of the Col du Tourmalet.

 

[Cosimo]

Dan Martin first up the col d'Aspin, leaders over seven minutes behind.

 

[Cosimo]

13km to the top of the Tourmalet and the peloton not chasing.

Cows in the road?!

 

[tedmaul]

Doped cows or clean cows? I demand a HR/power data comparison!!

That cow that's just gone past Majka is definitely on the gear.

 

[Cosimo]

Having taken the Tourmalet Rafal Majka takes the stage win.

 

[tedmaul]

The Moooovistar rider?

[George Hincapie]

Relatively quiet stage, waiting for tomorrow, but good tgo see breakaway do it.

Good to see Froome at the end close down Valverde so G didn't lose as many seconds as if he didnt!

Anyone free tomorrow afternoon to meet up at Look Mum No Hands? I'll be there around 1300.

Cavendish just posted a photo of his garmin summary from today's ride.
63mph max speed

 

[George Hincapie]

Faster than me down the Tourmalet, but I do catch the wind a little more

 

[Vonhelmet]

Great ride by Dan Martin today - combativity prize well deserved.

 

[Cosimo]

Stage 11 highlights:

Another very hard mountain stage coming up today.
