The Quite Day

For months on paper it seems everyone thought that today would be one for the sprinters and a quite day for most.  Well let's see, a sprint finish ... yep that happened.  But judging from the way the GC teams were lined up all along the front not sure they would call it relaxing.

Where we stand tonight.

  

Images of the Day

Think this one from @jeredgruber sums up today and feeling for the rest of the tour.  Windy and stormy today and a sense of something ominous on the horizon.

If you have not checked out Jered Gruber's images you should.  I think he is my favorite photographer currently shooting the sport.  You can see his stuff on Peloton Mag's site often and he has been doing stories on Strava's site.  I urge you to check out his photo essay on yesterday's stage.  WOW. 

Data of the Day

Not much to report on that front except this Greipel gent is fast. Yea I know, hardly newsworthy.  What I really want to know is what was Sagan's top speed in the last 100M.  He was motoring.
