    Anyone else following the Tour de France

    What a crash at the end of todays stage. How that guy didn't break his neck is amazing.

    Wish I had seen this earlier. It was a hell of a crash, amazing no one was hurt at 35+ mph. Shame about Sagan though,, especially when you could make the argument that Demare has been more reckless.

    Sky has been looking pretty dominant this year. I would love to see someone like Quintana get away on the big climbs later. Tomorrow should be interesting.

    That was quite a stage today. So sad to see Porte crash, and I was really pulling for Martin and Quintana. Really exciting day from start to finish.

    Even though Froome's support is so strong, they were able to separate him from them today. I could certainly see Aru or Bardet attacking him on another big climb like that later on.

    Yeah, I thought Porte had the best shot of anyone. He had looked really strong. Valverde could have challenged too, but he went out on the first day! Maybe Bardet/Aru/Martin/Uran can make things interesting. Sky is just loaded...

    Dam looked like kittel had a nitro pack blowing out of his ass the last 200 meters of stage 10. If he was worth a sh&* in the mountains he wouldn't have to worry about being dropped out of the race later this week.

    Same here! Kept waiting for someone to attack, and then suddenly it was chaos. I guess it was another example of isolating Froome from his teammates, then attacking. Aru in yellow now. Things are starting to get interesting!

    Problem for aru is that he is not a sprinter. Yep Froome is a lost soul without his teammates

    Now Kittel wipes out and is gone.
