Here at Cyclingnews, we love cycling, obviously. We love talking about it, but mainly, we also love arguing about it, debating tiny things, dissecting the details of the sport.
This morning, spurred on by this year's Tour de France's first sprint stage on stage 5, we were having a quick discussion about whether we like these flat, sprint-guaranteed stages or not. They're becoming less common in the Tour, as the organisers opt for punchier and more challenging courses more frequently, and the days of seven or eight flat days are over.
