My tip for the day-

First man on to the Champs - David Millar
Stage winner - Cav
Breakaway for glory which fails in the last lap - Vlad "Mullet of Destiny" Karpets! (I hope!)

But at least there will be no Parisienne drivers about - let's hope 😉

Let's hope so! 😉

I reckon there's a lot of 'other' sprinters looking for a stage win today - should be interesting (at the end! :roll:)

From the Beeb text commentary..

It may be a convention but no one told second placed Joop Zoetemelk in 1979, who attacked approaching Paris and was countered by yellow jersey wearer Bernard Hinault (possibly the most aggressively competitive rider in Tour history).

The two rode away from the field and Hinault made it a point of personal pride to win the stage.

and...

Anyone else noticed that Bradley Wiggins, David Millar & David Zabriske are wearing time trial suits? Maybe they think Tyler Farrar can get the big one today?

Imagine if Wiggo attacks in Paris - now that would be pure comedy!

Tankslapper, the Garmin boys are in TT suits.....

Possibly looking at a team time trial break away? Could they do it?

Certainly seems on the cards. If I was riding beside them at the moment I would certainly be concerned!

STATS

3,300 km raced over 21 days at an average speed of 40 k.p.h!

I have decided not to participate next year - Armstrong will be pleased! 😆

Hope it's a long time to Wiggo's next race, cos he's gonna have a mutha of all hangovers for the next few days.

I simply cant comprehend how hard the Tdf must be, sterling effort for 4th, hopefully it will inspire the next generation of brits.

Wiggo = Legend

Oh, and Cav to win the stage.

Roll on next year.

I think the French should rename the Exocet missile "The Cav" in his honour!

You know he's coming though and there's naff all you can do about it but wait for the hit!

FANTASTIC!

What sort of speed do you think cav can spin up to then? That was some speed!

A 1-2-3 for SRAM as well, pretty impressive given that they haven't been making road kit for long!
