Love it!

Here we go. Onwards and upwards.

I'd love to see Joe D take this. Eddie has has had a cracking ride today, but I fear he spent too much energy yesterday to do much.

Joe D looks good and the scenery is awesome

hope he gets back on

Shit's getting real, and still a looong way to go.

Yates= TVG

Poor Joe is blown. Landa and the Movistar trio looking good. Great tactics.

Why is Bahamian working for Roglic? Am I missing something? Is this not the time to force Roglic to sit at the front to set him up for the last 7 k?

And...that sucks for Lopez

When he attacked on the steeps early it seemed a little desperate. Great ride though. Hope Carthy hangs in.
Nibs still looks solid.

Pozzovivo and Nibs are his super domestique.

Lopez with a mechy that took way too long. Where was Astana? He just lost the time he gained yesterday.

Movistar putting on a tactics clinic. They’re taking it to the race.

that's harsh

Yeah, I don't quite get it . If I was Nibbles I'd have no problem losing time to Landa and Mollema in exchange for gaining time on Roglic. Maybe they want to put Yates down for good?

If any of the GC hopefuls had more than shite for brains that would work together against Roglic who is isolated once again.

Is there still a descent Ilnur Menchov can crash on?

Dude!

Luckily for his sake there is not.

I can't think of a worse descender in the peloton. Last year a few times I thought he was going off the mountain.

...and *finally* Nibali parks himself on Roglic's wheel and makes him work.

He was trying to show Nieve where that descent is....

Nibs made Roglic ride. Nice.

At least TVG does not talk a big game and then blow in the first mountain stage.

Did Landa go too hard today?

Landa is riding mega in the mountains. Impressive. And Nibs got his head out of his arse and stopped pulling Roglic. Shots are being fired!

Maybe...but I’d be pissed given he could have gained 4+ minutes for his efforts the last 2 days if the rest of the GC wasn’t riding for Jumbo

Great stage today. Tomorrow I feel like we are going to see some cracks following this.
