    Can't believe Thomas had an off ... That never happens.

    He didn't, he had a puncture.

    Ah ... OK.

    I got back to the TV and saw him chasing back and assumed the usual.

    Has he crashed (other than in the mental GW wind) this season?
    Yes, at Paris-NIce, same day as Porte.

    Wiggins almost out the back.
    Sky down to Rowe at the front.

    Looks like Sky and Quickstep are shadowing each other, neither have numbers near the front.

    I'm giving up watching cycling and will watch the ultimate sporting challenge instead. Archery.

    Rowe was in the top 10. Wiggins about 50 somethingth but in front of the split on the downhill. Getting back with Thomas now

    Yes I was wondering whether I'd heard that right. I'm only my second cup of tea of the morning.

  • Sky back at the front.

    As Kelly or Kirby say, you can't win it in Arenberg, but you can lose it.

    What was Demare doing with that barrier?

    I'm glad this happens to pros. I always get caught out by the level crossing at Halfweg.
