Go, Go, Go! PR18-6
Only one cyclist from the United States took to the start in Compiegne. Taylor Phinney in his new colors of EF Education First-Drapac decided to be sure we all knew he was there. After Gilbert and Teunissen had been pulled back, it was Phinney to go on the offensive. He was joined by a rider from Ag2r La Mondiale (sorry I wasn't able to get his name) who seemed to be yelling for Phinney to go hard. I guess it should be, "Allez, allez, allez!" instead.
