'kin River Monsters. How does he manage to keep peddling that myth?

On Danish TV2 we don't have any ads during the stage, much less for river monster fish or donkey sanctuaries.
On the other hand, we did get a detailed weather forecast - abut 30c at the start 19c at the finish, 30% chance of rain on l'Iseran, 60% at the finish (which could also drop the temperature to 13-14c)
We also had Rolf Sørensen fresh from a recon ride of Tignes - where he says they don't take the normal route, but take something a bit smaller and harder, with some steep ramps.*
*Paging Davidoff for local knowledge!
Oh and then a clip of Bernal warming up while being serenaded with "Olé Olé Olé, Egan, Egan" by a bunch of Colombian fans :-DWarning No formatter is installed for the format0 -

The French commissaire will probably decide to re route the stage around all mountains and cancel the summit finish. Best do the same tomorrow as well just to be safe."Unfortunately these days a lot of people don’t understand the real quality of a bike" Ernesto Colnago0 -

Ned has 27 x 43 x 18 x 21 different ways of describing wind direction x force x significance x rising or falling0 -

Movistar just windmilling like crazy, throwing punches left right and centre. Definitely modelling themselves as the anti sky. Katusha making a go at the Lanterne with the old 1-20
