Just so as not to muddy the other thread...

And the TV coverage starts with 68 km to go and Kittel so far off the back he's missed the road closure. Split off when Sky put the hammer down over Rosedale, apparently. Group of five off the front.

Anyone else think the scenery seems more stunning than last year's TdF Grand Depart? Real heart-in-mouth stuff descending under stone viaduct arches and so on, fabulous views as they clamber up short sharp climbs. Or do I just think it's more stunning because you can see actually see it, without people stood quite so completely all over it?

@mjray, Might be just that, but they're in Eskdale which is pretty narrow, twisty and fearsomely steep in places. The hills aren't long ones but that one they just went up is horrendous and it's uncategorised!

Declerque crashes. That's a steep old descent down towards Grosmont, I cooked the car brakes on there last year.
