    I'm quite happy thanks. I'll tolerate a certain degree of 'bite', then I'll just block those that step over the line. I think those upset with me need to look at themselves TBH. I've done nothing wrong. Brilliant stage and I am very happy with the outcome so far.

    Now, back to the race...

    Contador losing time on the flats too - now 40s.

    Own fault here - got dropped on cobbles.

    This is a great race, the peloton is in bits with loads of gaps. Anybody able to go and collect the kids from school at 3:30?

    It's the missus' birthday today, can anyone house the mother-in-law till this is over?

    Sssshhh don't mention that, it doesn't fit the narrative! They may as well cut them out if riders are going to ride them slowly and safely :wink:

    I'm supposed to be getting loads of work wrapped up ready to go on holiday, this isn't helping! Looks like a late finish tonight.

    You can't trust someone who actually knows him.

    Well, so far the cobbles might be making the gaps but it's plain old wet roads that have caused the upsets.
