I've a hunch food might be involved .....

After the TT today I think that the race has opened up now.

We're watching the highlights and my wife just shouted "Do it for your hair" at Tony Martin as he rolled off the ramp.

I was enjoying Marty MacDonald actually pronouncing Lars Boom correctly (bohm), then that smug newsreader Barbet makes a "boom" joke.

Something has got to happen today, surely? hasn't it?

On a long flat WET stage

Cleeve Hill inside the last 10k should thwart a sprint finish from the fast men today

 

[Bollo]

As I couldn't make the side of the road today so I'm watching on the TV. Does today's stage finish in Mordor?! Those clouds look evil enough to neutralise the race if they drop their load.

I was at the Cat3 climb in Bourton on the Hill banging a cowbell like a nutcase. We had rain, sun and rain again and watched a huge storm was really good fun.

Yes, we were in Cheltenham and it threw it down! Met Yanto Barker and Matt Barbet, had a go on a hand cycle with my daughter and made a fool of myself on the 30-second sprint challenge (I just had flu, seat was too low etc etc)... Kids loved it too!

From the official website:

Viryienka (Team Sky) goes on the attack now off the front of the lead group.

They done exactly the same during the TT

Good to see Mark Stewart out front and getting some coverage

 

[roadrash]

EBH did well to hold off the peleton for the win

 

[Pro Tour Punditry]

I enjoyed that. Great seeing Mark on the podium with the stage combativity award, and a decent finish to the stage.

 

[brommers]

The two of them worked well together. I enjoyed today's stage.
