    Tbh, he did great to be in the peloton.

    Robbie Hunter goes @rse over teakettle into the ditch, limping around the place - Garmin car gives him new bike and sympathy then fecks off leaving him to his own devices

    Its amazing how much harder it is to focus on a descent when you're cooked from the preceding climb, I wonder if he'd gone a bit far into the red to hang on near the front? Hope he's OK anyway after his injuries earlier this season.
