Down to 13th. Bug game between him and RadioShack group ahead of 2 plus mins.

Ahem! 
Great call balbec!
Twas made for a French Vierenque type climber,go early and hang on.
Just watched the stage there, Froome is the strongest man in the race. TJVG looked good today. Nico has a bit of work to do to get back into the top 10, not sure he will do it.
Jaysis Stage is on TV already. How’s a man supposed to get any work done!
In work. Updates would be appreciated for next few hours Scrunchie. Presume it will be quiet enough day for GC guys…
the longest stage today.
A big break got away on first climb - about 20. But some guys 10th to20th on GC attacked too but Sky pulled it back. Means theres 8 now at front with a small lead of 1’19". This small gap will suit the likes of Sagan
Moncoutie with a horrible fall there on the descent.
11 have a lead of 1’22" now.
Kiserlovski {AST} is highest on GC but 28 minutes down. david Millar, Gusev & Popovych to name a few are aslo in it
Gesink abandoned before today leaving Rabbobank with only 4 riders
Unsurprisingly Moncoutie abandons. I’d say he will be off to hospital and skin grafts could be in order
Gap 2’10" - not much happening
