Today was an incredibly miserable day. It rained all day long. It was too dangerous to drive as fast as needed to get ahead of the peloton, so I waited at the finish. There were some breaks that didn’t hold and non-serious crashes. This is the last day for the sprinters until after the Pyrenees, which start tomorrow. Steegmans of Quickstep was expecting to win but he was eclipsed by Mark Cavendish who managed to get around him and win the stage.

Good Work--Keep at it
Ms. Schneider,
Just a word of encouragement. No need to apologize about not being able to get ahead of the peloton on days like today and yesterday. Only those who have done what you're doing understand the dangers.
My brother and I have been doing this for some time as a hobby. Our site is www.carbonfibrephoto.com. We've unable to be there this year,so we're living vicariously through your shots and those of the other excellent photogs on the TOUR
Keep it up. Excellent work. I also enjoy your landscape shots. -P
