Glorious excerpt from Inrng's TDF Stage 3 Wrap:

"Peter Sagan seemed to be waiting for the others. Greg Van Avermaet jumped and as Sagan replied his foot came out of the pedal with all the casual routine of Japanese salaryman returning home after a day’s work and removing his shoes in the home hallway. The Slovak clipped back, checked what was happening and resumed sprinting to win the stage. It’s classic Sagan, while others need everything to go their way just to have a chance of winning, he can make mistakes, make amends and still win."

You don't think... He might just...

Could he...

Win the tour?

If stage 5 doesn't shake it up too much and he can hang on, he'd just need to make one breakaway stick.

This year's route might just make it possible if he can hold station up the hills.

Imagine...

Dude. Spoiler. Too late for me, but delete it!

Ahh my bad

:)

But fook!

No!

Apparently not.

What are the chances of Sagan defending the World Champs jersey this year?

Bergen will see a return to a more traditionally 'open' course where the short climb of Salmon Hill will play a central role

After the 40km intro, the elite men will cover 12 laps to bring up a total race distance of 276.5km – the longest Worlds course since 1981.

"The road race route will be technical, with hills, rapid descents, cobbles, and a lot of corners, which will challenge the riders on many levels," said Hushovd. "It's a race which many riders chasing the rainbow jersey will feel they can win."

he will defend it allright, and may be successful at it too judging by Hushovd's description of the technicality.

I'll just leave this here
