profile for tomorrow shows a little cat.3 poke that wraps up 10k before the finish. along with a bunch of minor climbs on teh day, you'd think we'll see some breakaways from polkadot contenders and that a big bunch sprint with all the boys would be pretty unlikely.. tough luck for the sprinters.
hopefully robbie can find a lane on saturday before they head into the 2 days of pyrenees.. i'll definitely be rooting for him with ya.
sunday will be another day for polkadot points, probably no major moves..
but monday will be huge. right before the rest day & plenty of recovery days afterwards.,, someone has to take a chance that day to shake up cadel if there is to be any hope.
the Tourmalet is really something else.. i'm not too familiar with the Hautacam. gotta love the summit finishes,
i'm expecting CSC to play some cards.. my money will be on the older schleck
