FTDF Stage 12 - Geraint Aint Fucking About

Geriant Thomas made it 2 stages in a row today, with a nicely timed sprint from a quality group at the top of Alpe d'Huez. Even if he falls of tomorrow - which let's face it, he might - he should be happy with how the race has gone so far.

With a the Alps fading in the peloton's helmet mirrors, Julian Alaphilippe has put a nice downpayment on the Mountains Jersey.

And no prizes for guessing who's in Green, but Sagan now has an even easier time of it. As Gaviria, Greipel, Groenewegen, Kittel and Cavendish all fell victim to the tough Alpine stages and are out of the race.

Drew is on that Good Stuff again, and so are his Dudes.

Stage 13 should be fairly straightforward for the GC boys, with breakaways and sprints forecast. Still, I bet Thomas will be pleased if he makes it through Stage 13 without falling off.
