Taking the Day Off
Peter Sagan (Tinkoff Saxo) has been in virtually every single break away in this year's Tour. Mainly to amass as many sprint points in search of the Maillot Vert. He now has over a 100 point lead in the competition, so with none of his rivals ahead of him, he decided he could afford to take the day off. Well as much of a day off as one can when the stage has a total of seven categorized climbs and covers over 186 kilometers. As the Tour nears its conclusion in just three more stages, it looks as though all but the Maillot a Pois has been decided. But anyone can have a bad day in a Grand Tour.
