I've decided that I will be training exclusively to be able to time trial off the front of a group at 40 mph for 1000m. Most boring 6 hours ever, followed by the coolest 30 seconds of this year's tour.

Amen.
I was very happy that I had stayed home to see the end today.
What a delight!
That's an old school, heroic win.
Worthy of Eddie Mercx.

I had a good feeling about Fabian before the prologue and he has kept it up. The boy doesn't disappoint.
He will probably keep it until the Alps and then who knows, maybe he'll pull a Cipolini and go home when the road tips upwards.
Any bets?

I saw that on the VS website today. That finish was crazy. Even while he was leading out the last 7-800 meters the 'sprinters' were still looking back and around and jockeying for position while he just kept powering away. I think they were assuming he would die and be caught.
