Wiggins was very impressive actually, seeing as the race really wasn't 'his cup of tea', I was very pleased that he was in the Cancellara group at the end.
Thomas is starting to hit his straps well too - coped very well with the Sagan and Boonen attacks as part of the groups and kept his cool.

In the mean time Kittel has won his second stage of the Giro, and then pulled out with illness.
Decent effort from Swift, but the distance Kittel comes back from shows how much work there is still left to do for the young man.

Combined with Chris Froome digging up comments over 'I sensed weakness' and 'I nearly quit Team Sky' recently - it all feels a touch sour inside Team Sky.
No one is doubting that froome would have ridden away that day in 2012, and no one doubts he is the better Grand Tour cyclist - it just seems stupid to keep on raking this muck up in interviews.
To omit Wiggins, who is in great form, who would be a great super-domestique....the only reason must be to prevent any histrionics (which it seems both are very susceptable too).
