Froome has been the highlight for me. That surprise attack. Running up Ventoux, coming off and using G's bike to get back on. Destroyed the field in the mountain TT on full time trail bike while the rest on road bikes (mostly).. yeh well deserved. Even if he is supporting Voldemort.

All of that, and Adam Yates' ride over the three weeks, Porte looking like he might finally step up if he gets a less unlucky run, Pantano and Alephillipe beating each other into submission on the final stage.
So many good moments this year, even if history will record it as a procession

Closest ever top ten in terms of time gap between first and tenth.

There has been some great racing, but sadly that'll be forgotten by the 'the Tour was dull' brigade.

There's been no whiff of a drug scandal (yet) either. Which makes a refreshing change over recent editions.
