Tour de France 2014 Stage 13
Garmin Sharp loses Acevedo
Their best climber has to go
Joining Vichot and Navarro
The toll of crashes and cold
Is starting to show
The pace is fast
Towards the Col de Paraquit
It's a hard fought ascent
De Marchi prevails
But J Fuglsang crashes
Foiled by a stray bottle
He 's Nibali's man
This could be trouble
De Marchi descends
Followed by Bakelants
They pass through Grenoble
With two men in the front
Astana 's Fuglsang took a hard bump
The sprint points are taken by
De Marchi
But all eyes are on Fuglsang
How is he really?
Jakob is seen as essential to Nibali
He 's riding back slowly
Hanging out with Visconti
Before all now looms the final climb
Can they make it at all
Or will some be left behind?
Chamrousse a beast Alpine
At eighteen K an awful climb
FDJ works for Pinot, T
Marching onward A De Marchi
The pace of the race
Has been so high
The non-climbers might be excused
For wanting to die
Astana is shredded
Richie Porte holds his place
Many fall victim to the stage's hot pace
TeJay is there
But this climb is a bear
Another half hour of uphill hell
Leopold Konig is riding well
Riche Porte starts to crack
With Nieve at his back
Valverde attacks
Nibali at his back
TeJay takes a try
He's a marked guy
Chris Horner helps Rui
A big move by Nibali
Together Bardet and TeJay
But moving well is Valverde
As is young Frenchman Bardet
But Nibali powers in the lead
His yellow jersey hopes to feed
He seems so calm
He seems so cool
This year's Tour he seems to rule
He zips up his jersey
Sits up straight
What a win to celebrate!
