Haha, i was just saying he is treating it like a recovery ride. I'm sure if he turned it up, he could do much better. I agree with the above poster who said the Sky Team has no interest in this race. They were trying to help Dombrowski, but now that he is out, I think they're just trying to get to the end without any injuries.

Personally, I think Sagan is still aiming for the yellow jersey (keep in mind I'm still halfway through stage three, no idea what has happened the last couple of days). I like Sagan a lot, he's a beast...I feel he treats most races as a chance to show the world how flippin' awesome he is. I'm surprised he hasn't ridden a wheelie across the finish line yet.

As for TJ and Talansky, it's not like they were really leaders of the pack in the TdF. I kind of feel all the riders pick the races they gun for each season and the rest of the races are more for training than anything else.
