Paris-Nice 2015 Stage One

Paris Nice 2015
Stage One

With 50 km yet to achieve 
Who has something up their sleeve?
In the break brave Tommy V
And Delaplace, Anthony 
The skies seem a little grey
Ditto the mood--
CIRC report out today
The peloton has put on the breaks
All they need are tea and cakes
I don't mind the sleepy pace
A quick cuppa joe wouldn't be out of place
A big bunch sprint is the plan
So many chiefs
So few Indians
A slow, slow day through tomorrow through the Loire
Tom Boonen crashes 
Nice now a place too far
Tommy and Tony start to compete
It's possible they may complete
Unlikely, but the bunch has been asleep
Right now the lead is theirs' to keep
Lotto has Greipel under their wing
He's chafing to do his thing
Wiggins is trying to push the group
All the sprinters are in the soup
A brilliant ride by the two Tees
They're caught but certainly not with ease
Kristoff wins in a blaze
Bouhanni took two
Just one of those days 
Katusha didn't give much support
He won anyway--it's that kind of sport
We wait for the fate of Tom, Boon
Etixx-Quick-Step steeped in gloom
