Tour de France 2013

Is cav a real contender out there on his own?

Surely this would suit Rolland better given his Coco the clown kit. I hear he can make balloon animals out of old inner tubes.

As long as he's not shot from the effort of staying away, sure. See the national champs for how he can handle himself in a break.

Just imagine if they were riding every stage like this... So exciting!

Cav should get the better of Bennati and Sagan in a straight sprint, but don't see them getting all the way to the line -main buch has enough teams to bring it back if they get their act together but you never know...

Every time I look at the feed there is a fucking advert on.

Finger's crossed!

Cav did a lot of solo work last year with Sky. Looked good coming off the wheel of other teams riders

Doesn't have as much potential for winding Hippy up though, and we all know that's the real point of the TdF thread.

Cav has Chavanel and Terpstra with him no?

they are going to do it

yep

Just chavanel i think

Gotta hand it to Saxo-Tinkoff...

the gap is growing

my mistake

28 secs

I've got this streaming through sky go to my mobile which is hidden behind a pile of paperwork on my desk. Hoping nobody walks past!

Valverde is fucked!

Saxo should be careful - might have to wear yellow helmets if they carry on at this rate

Where's Quintana?

Cav vs Sagan at the end?
