    133 kms to go

    15 man break forms. None of ours in there #losing

    61 riders remain in the peloton having distanced the rest on a climb however the stragglers are clawing back, having gone from 2 mins down to 1.40 now.

    Aru, De Clercq, Santaromita, Weening, Porte and Iglinsky are clearly not in form with the wet weather and are two groups back (110 riders in groups ahead of them). The group behind the main peloton contains names such as Tony Martin, Ten Dam, Voeckler, Evans, Ulissi and Samuel Sanchez

    10 ks later and groupe evans has returned to the pack
     
  9. Skippos SM Morgan

    10 more kms later and groupe porte have made it back. will they be too cooked to contest later though?
     
  10. Skippos SM Morgan

    90 kms left and the whole peloton bar the break is back together. some tough climbs to come though in a tick
     
  11. Skippos SM Morgan

    Gerrans, Majka and Vanendert are all working hard on the front for Dereks while Nibali, Gasparotto and De Gendt remain at the head of the pack protected. Perhaps they're setting up Nibali and Gasparotto

    Missed Kwiakowski who's also hanging back.

    Intxausti and Caruso also doing a lot of work for CC who have brought some good riders in Spilak, LL Sanchez, Konig and Valverde for this.

    Carn MMPC.
     
  14. Skippos SM Morgan

    44 ks out and Valverde makes a reaaaally shitty attack
     
  15. Skippos SM Morgan

    28 ks out and a big attack from the favourites. Inside it is: Henao, Nibali, DMartin, De Gendt, Van den Broeck, Rodriguez, Gilbert and LL Sanchez
     
  16. Weeman27bob BE Force

    Come on Phil.
     
  17. Skippos SM Morgan

    Fosters had nobody in that so they've worked their ass off and chased it down. We're all together again for the last 15.
     
  18. Skippos SM Morgan

    Same 9 get away again.

    8 ks left and we get a dan martin attack, clearly knows he's beat in a sprint.

    Nibali off too

    Van den Broeck, Henao and De Gendt can't keep up, looks a 5 man race right now - Nibali, Martin, Sanchez, Valverde and Gilbert
     
  19. Skippos SM Morgan

    Purito too
     
  20. Skippos SM Morgan

    dan martin nearly closed down with 6 ks left. Valverde off on the final climb
