Second for WvA too - anyone think he could put in a decent challenge for the green jersey? Probably not this year with Groenewegen in the squad but he's pretty versatile.Fat chopper. Some racing. Some testing. Some crashing.

I think this is the future. MTFs don't make the gaps, this stage was super exciting0 -

Fairly sure stage 13 of the Giro had the biggest time gaps of any stage and it was a monster MTF.

It’s a nice story that such a recent addition to the team can perform like that. Surely an Archbold, Bennett and Sagan trio would as near guarantee Bora success at the Tour, leaving them 5 riders to play for the GC?0 -

Brailsford says it’s ‘pretty clear’ Froome won’t ride the Tour. Has a suspected broken femur. Crash happened when he took hand off handlebars to clear nose on a fast section.“New York has the haircuts, London has the trousers, but Belfast has the reason!0 -
Oh man. TBH, he's been good value the last year as he's not been so far ahead of everyone else and he's got the engine and the palmares to sh!t or bust.
Shame.0 -
