Seems like the teams are keen to keep things together before the early sprint points on these stages so early breaks doomed to failure

Raise your forks in the air, Mark O'Brien 1km away and looking like he'll solo to victory

ram · « **Reply #79 on:** June 15, 2012, 05:09 »

And Nearle? Where's he?

Tuart · « **Reply #80 on:** June 15, 2012, 05:10 »
