And Taylor Phinney finished 10th!

Still a pretty interesting finish to watch but Sagan just always seems to time it just right and use just enough.

The slow mo is cool where you can see the rear wheel moving back and forth with the pedal strokes.

Until this year he always came in second. After all those green jersey wins it's nice to see him winning stages.(even though all his real competition went home)

Plus he now has 30 2nd and 3rd place finishes. It's a hell of a record.

Its a stage race. He hauled is *ss over the Alps; his so-called "real competition" didn't have the legs.
