    Ticker says that Yates has still got 1'24" over the peloton with 8ish to go

    That can go quick if it kicks off behind. Hope he stays out though

    5.1km to go for Kadri, Yates has 1'16" to the peloton

    Kangert takes a fancy to someone's folding chair.

    Kangert sweeping someone off her feet there. All's well in the end though.

    Porte tucked it very close behind Nibali, hope he has a go on the final climb. Contador to go, Nibali to tow Porte?

    Pinot still there on the descent? Uncharacteristic.

    Perhaps he's conquered his descending demons? I hope so.

    Aye. He seems to do better when it's wet. Presumably because the speeds are lower

    I'd love to be in Umm Kadri's shop right now. I hope the whole community are crowded around her telly.

    Shows that Kadri dropping Voeckler on Holme Moss, after already have been in the break, was no coincidence. Well done

    Was it G? I thought it was Kiry? Number 3 is Kiry no?

    Thought it was G, didn't catch a number, might be mislead by Danish commentary.
