My first attempt had cancellara and Tony Martin until I realized there was no itt prologue
when i camped out on the tourmalet, cav was in absolute last place, by a lot.  he was just in front of the official tdf bus, smiling as he rode by.

Nah, if he's anywhere close to green they'll just send the team car to pull him up the mountains 
He's targeting rio and will leave early to periodize for that

 
I picked a team at the last second without putting any thought into it.  That's usually my best way forward 

 
Not having Sagan is going to crush me.  I thought the lesser GC guys would be more aggressive on that climb.

Feel bad for Porte getting hosed like that.

 
Stayed out of this thread thus far to avoid spoilers, had to catch up today on DVR.

Man, it's a damn shame Sagan has no chance at general classification.  I have to think he could be a major boon for the sport on the international level.  Flashy, playful personality, he's got that bravado that people either love or hate (I love).

Hard to believe Cav had never had the yellow jersey after 26 stage wins.  It was pretty cool to see him celebrating with his daughter after stage 1.

It was a shame to see them catch Steuven.  Great attack to leave the breakaway but damn, just not enough.

I never, ever, buy the breakaway hype, but man I thought he had it today.  He had to believe he had a shot at the bottom of the hill.

My guys took 1st, 2nd, 7th, 12th on the stage here but it still feels like a loss of a day because of Porte's flat
I had Porte in my lineup forever, but dumped him for barguil. I think a Frenchman will take mont ventoux

 
crash inside of 1k.  they've adjusted it to everyone is 10 seconds back except around 20 riders

GreAt. All my sleepers apparently were sleeping

 
 Pretty boring stage today. Took a two-hour nap during the race. LOL at vocal are doing all that work just to get run down in no time 

 
KOM competition is now open.

yeah, they needed to re-weight that classification.  Was really easy to make a decent team with only a couple fillers.  

 
He's withdrawing soon, right?  My sprinters are wondering...
I can't imagine that he stays in until the end with the Olympics, but Kittel probably will which will make for a good green jersey competition since all the stages look either sprint-y or too hilly for Sagan to hold on.  

 
Enough with the sprint crap.  I think velogames is going to eliminate my team for not making the time limit.

 
Yellow jersey 4:45 up the road.  Virtual lead is close to 10 minutes.
This is crazy, yellow jersey, former tour winner, 3 of the bet TT guys in the world, all in a break of 29 with a big lead.... and the peloton is allowing BMC to lead it (and slow it down) right now.
