Not a bad bunch all in all. Cav and Froome are the best at what they do, Millar and Boardman have turned into good pundits too. Millar's running commentary on how well Cav was reading the finish today was amazing, I've no idea how he did that. So much going on but he still had time to appreciate Cav's incredible instinct for getting on the right wheel in those situations. Boardman's assessment of the crash was spot-on I think, it wasn't quite as black and white as it seemed at the time and Sagan is probably unlucky to be thrown out. I wonder if Geraint will move into tv when he retires? He's got the personality for it.

Good race so far, won't be quite the same without Cav and Sagan (and without G in yellow) but I'll be following it all the same. Great sport.
Agree that some of the excitement has gone. But the race is won in the mountains or the time trials. Neither missing affects this.
