Tough day to get away for the Lanterne contenders. Greipel resorting to pretending his shifters aren't working properly to try and sneak a gap
“Road racing was over and the UCI had banned my riding positions on the track, so it was like ‘Jings, crivvens, help ma Boab, what do I do now? I know, I’ll go away and be depressed for 10 years’.”
I've just realised I can do picture in picture on Virgin TV Go, so can have it in the corner of the screen all afternoon. Now I just need to choose between commentator teams. I dislike some of both.

The breakaway rider's union have called a strike. Between the sprinter's teams on the flat and Jumbo on the lumps not giving them more than 3 minutes they have given up trying.

Forecast says wind gusts of up to around 45kph from the NNE and the final art of the stage is due west so the conditions look right. Thing is I can't see Jumbo getting caught out by crosswinds and Ineos usually make good use of them so who would be the most likely losers if there were echelons? Pogacar maybe?
I've marked the spot. There seems to be a long, slightly downhill, straight section heading north and then a roundabout where they turn left so string it out on that and then nail it as you turn into the crosswind. Only thing is that run into the turn would have a headwind.
Love this part of the world, probably as it was where I had my first holiday without the parents the year I left school.
I take it I won't be missing much if I have to jump onto a long meeting now...
Come back in a hour

Cosnefroy and Pacher to race off the front for the KOM point and try and stay away?
Not in the wind they won't
