    The leaders are going to get caught by the GC group soon.

    Thomas looks pretty good for now (so does Dumoulin though)

    I’d even go as far as saying he might need to chuck in a bag of pork scratching too...

    Chris should keep those, he could do with the protein.

    I know it hasn't finished, but I do believe this stage has delivered. I may well have a heart attack at any moment.

    I think I've been for a nervous pee about 5 times in the last hour.

    After a dud first week, pretty much all of these last 2 weeks have been good.

    Any attack now will get caught on the descent surely? There isn't enough of a climb left is there?

    Thomas has spent the entire tour apart from the last few 100 metres of three mountain stages on a sky wheel or dumoulins wheel when the skybots are done. Racing smart and boring.

    Nervous tension. And a small amount of exaggeration :mrgreen:
