Assuming Tao G& Kuss must've been beaten up in yesterdays crash as they were minutes behind.
Tao maybe....he said he was suffering before the stage from the crash, but I'm not too sure Kuss even crashed.
Tao has pulled out of the race today ☹️

Hatch's Kirbyesque pun went un noticed during commentary the other day and didn't raise a laugh.

Enjoying live stream of the women's 'tour of britain.'
I don't understand why certain riders who are in pro teams then join the GB team for this race?

I presume the riders rightly wanted to ride their home tour but there trade teams did not so some friendly arrangement was agreed for them to ride under team GB , however it's been done it's good to see the likes of Lizzie Diegan riding on home roads when otherwise they would have missed the tour . From a marketing point of view more home riders has to be a good thing and even better that there in GB kit so people watching who are not into cycling can spot the GB riders

Another day in the mountains, another win for Roglic, Jorgenson did push him close and Gee up to third in the GC. Another poor day for Evenepoel some work to be done before the Tour. Felt for Soler just ran out of legs at the end.

I know that Remco has been injured and is still gearing up but in every GT he has done he's been unconvincing or had a bad day over the 3 weeks.
I think he'll do well to be top 5 in the Tour. Sorry Adam!

He did win the Vuelta in '22 when he was 22. That was a consistent performance but maybe not against a TdF kind of field.

I'm a Remco fan but I don't think he's a 3 week GT contender against the best... yet.
He had a suspect puncture on the Vuelta 2022 and Roglic had a dnf.
Without TTs I think he'll strugglebut we'll see.
Hard to tell but he looks like he's carrying a few pounds overweight 😱

Looks like another win for Roglic today unless Bora let the breakaway go.
Jorgenson, Cicconi and Gee are going well but only Ineos seem to have the team to put the hammer down. But Rodriguez isn't strong enough to finish it off.
