For another year is time for the Tour to start.

This start is a hard stage, maybe we we'll see some GC contenders playing (I dream). Anyway it would be interesting.

Let's commented here how the stage is going.

For those who cannot watch it procyclingstats.com is a good place to follow.

I admit, I'm really happy for Bardet. And it feels right to have a Frenchman in the first yellow jersey, even if it's likely to go to a Dane or Slovenian or Belgian.

And Van den Broek was a revelation! That kid is incredibly strong, what a Tour debut! Very impressive.

Very good stage.

I like this stages for starting the Tour, a lot of riders are aware that it is not for them and is less likely to see accidents in the peloton.
