Can't wait, I reckon it could be one of the best Tours for a while T.
Fancy Froomey to win it as he seems to be back on form, Sky have a a very strong squad out although it'll be interested to see how Porte performs after the Giro.
Sagan is the one to beat for the Green Jersey but I reckon Kristoff will push him close this year.
Got no idea who will win this year. Hope Nibali doesn't get on the podium just because Astana took the piss at the Giro. Not a fan of Froome because he looks fucking awful on a bike. I would like Quintana to win it but it will be hard if Valverde rides for himself which I can see happening. Cav looks in great shape and the way he rode the nationals last week was superb. It's great to see so many brits riding this year.

Only just watched it, gutted for him as really like Martin. Some of the crashes this year have been awful. Tricky finish today with roundabouts and sharp bends coupled with narrow roads, surprised it didn't happen earlier tbh.
If it wasn't such a non sensical thing to do you'd be forgiven for saying Martin looks to have deliberately barged the guy on his right hand side...I've watched the replay half a dozen times and that's what it looks like

Tbh mate, that's what I thought, the experts in the studio would have us believe he clipped someones back wheel, yet the bike in front didn't appear to go off line?!?!?
