Le Tour: Stage 2

So you remember yesterday’s thrilling finish?  The peloton reeled back in the break away and all the teams set up their sprinters for the dash to the line?

Well there was a crash 50 yards from the finish so under Le Tour’s NASCAR competition rules everyone in the main body gets the same time as the first sprinter to cross.

Today’s stage finishes on a climb, one of 6 in the stage, so we’re unlikely to see that kind of action again.  125 miles from Brussles to Spa.

    Very damp.  Break away only 70 seconds ahead.

    A couple of attacks, nothing that seems substantial.
