Yesterday was the start of the Tour de France with a nice victory of Rohan Dennis.
Who is you’re favorite to win the Tour de France in the end?

It was a exciting 2nd stage I think. Hopefully the stage of today will excited as well with the finish in Huy.
Hopefully Dumoulin can win the yellow jersey today.

The weather forecast wasn’t great and in ‘Zeeland’ you can expect this kind of windy action.
So it wasn’t to surprising for me it would end like this, but it’s always painful if you lose 5 minutes like this, but most favorites lost ‘only’ 1,5 minutes.

That for sure, but the abandon of Cancellara with 2 broken vertebrae is also ugly.
Hopefully he will recover for that completely, but it’s a nasty way to end maybe his last Tour de France.

i think that crash was one of the more nasty i have seen in cycling, with that speed i am happy nobody got worse injured.

yesterdays stage , i think Froome didnt really care to defend the yellow jersey at the end, so far hes controling this race same as contador was at giro d italia but still a long way to go and alot of things can happen in the mountains,

today i expect the sprinters to take it down, maybe time for Cavendish to win..

I think to, but I’m not surprised if Greipel wins again.

Yesterday was painful day of Tony Martin. He’s the 2nd yellow jersey holder to leave the Tour de France this year. Hopefully we don’t get more serious crashes like this anymore.

Today is the finish on the Mûr-de-Bretagne. So that will be a exciting stage I think.

team trial today, will probably be little bit harder then many thought from start, with some up and downs and a finish climb, i think some of the favorites for overall will lose some time today , BMC and SKY looks strongest for today with Moviestar, Team Saxo and Astana as contenders for a top 5 placement,, It will be intressting to see how Etixx with Rigoberto Uran will do without Tony Martin, i am afraid they will lose alot of time...

It was indeed a exciting team trail stage. Sky would win it if they didn’t collapsed on the last hill.
Today no stage and tomorrow the first mountain stage.

Ivan Basso leaved the Tour de France yesterday, because they found cancer.
Hopefully he will recover from this.

The Sky team under command of Froome was outstanding yesterday.
It looks like it’s already decided, but still 1,5 week to go.

Today the finish on the Plateau de Beille.
I expect this could end ugly if Froome will do the same as 2 days ago.
Hopefully it will be a exciting stage.

It was not to much of a fight between the top 10 of the ranking yesterday.
Today looks like a relaxing day for them and it’s likely if you try to escape in a group that you have a good change to win.

i think Sagan wants to win today and the other sprinters will have hope also to win so teams with sprinters will work hard to prevent a escape group, could be a good stage, yesterday was kind of boring, had more expectations at that stage..

Sagan finished 2nd for the 4th time in the Tour de France of this year.
At least he did a good job to get a lot of points for the green jersey, but hopefully he will win a stage as well.

Today most likely the last change for the sprinters before Paris to win a stage.
It would be nice if Sagan can finally win a stage and than it will be a difficult task for the rest to win the green jersey.

Sagan was yesterday again 2nd. Must be his favorite place to finish a stage.
At least he locked almost up the green jersey if nothing strange will happened until Paris.
