"Thats just the Tour"

The quote of the day so far me is Andrew Talansky on NBC after the race.
Thats just the tour
Clearly this how lot of riders see things.  There are about 190 guys riding small french road in the first week when there are always crashes.  Being the status quo does not make it any less awful to see.

Quickstep won the day but lost so much more with a reported broken collarbone for Tony.

Where we stand

Also from  an image of teamwork.  All the boys helping Tony get across the line.

Data from the Day

Not a lot of interesting data points today but here is an image from the new live tracking data web site I have been getting the data from.   Wish I woke up earlier enough to watch the race like with it running but frankly I like to sleep to much.  I know the plan is to use this data live during the race as graphic overlays but I think that as still refining the data stream before that goes live.  So right now it comes down to me reading their twitter feed to dig out the bits I think are most informative.  


As you were and happy ridding.
