Hasn't Asgreen been the Danish Nat Champ TT winner for the last few years.

Yup; won the last 4 he started.


Been a good Tour for the Danishers.

I can't believe the peleton let the break go for so long at about 2mins with quality of the riders in it, very foolish, they should have caught them earlier.

Big mistake by Alpecin trying to save their lead out instead of them contributing to the chase.

I'm at 50km can I be bothered to stay up and watch a sprint?! I'm cooked like pog yesterday!!

What are people's views on the Jesper Philipson blocking tactics?

I didn't like it personally but appreciate everyone will have a different viewpoint.

I think he's a bit of an arse. However, I'm not falling off my chair calling for him to be DQ'd (although I might be if Cav was still in the race )

So what's the strategy for today?

Do we double down on scoffing at stupid futile pointless breakaways that can't possibly succeed, and pretend that yesterday didn't happen. Or are we more cautious and say things like "well, a small chance is better than no chance"?

 

[BrumJim]

Will be a massive breakaway today.

Alaphilippe in the break again. Nice to see the up & coming guys from the smaller teams working hard to get a bit of TV exposure.
