<p>Good race. Congrats to Geraint Thomas; he rode a great race (although I would have been pleased no matter who the winner was, as long as it <em>wasn't</em> Froome. LOL). :~)</p>
<p></p>
<p>I've been watching each stage's video on the Tiz Cycling website while at work (no cable or internet at home right now), and have enjoyed watching each stage right from the depart, rather than it being joined "in progress" like I've seen NBCSN do in past years.</p>

<p>The points classification system seems to benefit the sprinters in the tour. Winners of certain sections and or certain category climbs. Minus penalty points of course. Yeah, it's some what complicated. </p>

<p>Will somebody walk me through the timing/points earned throughout the race? I think I have an idea but what with all the extra details (same time for crashes inside 1K of finish) throw me off. </p>
