    Sagan takes stage 3! Greipel takes stage 4!
    Who is the new guy on the reporter desk this year for NBC SPorts? HE SUCKS! Does he know anything about cycling or the riders. TG, Phil and Paul still do the by play. I haven't seen all five at the desk taking the mickey out of each other yet. This tour is off to a boring start. And what's with 2 days of crashes inside the 3k?

    Soooo, when's the first mountain stage? Maybe then it will get interesting.

    We already know he can get over a hill, unlike some of the other sprinters, so he has a really good chance for Champs. I was surprised to see he is 8th in the GC. So many GC guys blowing in the crash yesterday. So disappointing :)
    THink I'm moving my money to Wiggins.

    What a result!

    Well done to Wiggins and of course Cavendish and Froome.

    Makes you proud to be British!!

    Loved Wiggins final speech to the British fans "Thanks, and have a safe Journey home - and don't get drunk!!"

    Great suff :-)

    I found it really moving when Wiggins went to the front to help Cavendish win the last stage, it was a great team result.

    Wiggins better win BBC sports personality of the year for this.

    YAY, for Wiggins. He and his team did a superb job. However, it was the most boring tour in recent history, and I'm still pissed at FRank Schleck.

    I have a new respect for Brad Wiggins and Eurocar after that tack incident. Great sportsmanship.

    Normally I am glued to the tv when the tour is on, I just had so much going on this year that I only watched a few stages. My favorite riders are Andy and Frank Schleck

    Frank got busted and kicked off the tour.

    He was using illegal diuretics. You know half those guys have eating disorders to make race weight. So sad.
