Nice write ups Sylv. Seems like you are having lots of fun.

On subject of inflatable boars I came across the below video. Not all fans are crazy, some seem to be helpful. Particularly the guy in blue t shirt.

Congratulations to Froome and sky. Porte has been outstanding as has all the team.
Headache now for Sir Dave.

Great sprinting again by Kittel, where now for Cav.... will he be back.... Argos look soooo good.

Bring on the Vuelta, my favourite stage race usually, who's favourite?

Nice.

I wonder why Froome elected to ride one of the Mavic bikes on the last day,

Wise move to wait till the last day though, what with those toe-clip pedals and 9-speed drivetrain he lost 53 seconds on the bunch. If he'd ridden it every day he was in yellow, he'd be off the podium.

Delusions of grandeur. He thinks he's Jens.
