    Just bullsh*t padding from the BBC at the moment...... I'll try going back to it and a few hours.

    Yup.
    This on the back of showing the entire women's errrrr race live on mainstream tv.
    They are now doing chats and interviews about BLM, as the breakaway begins to feel the pinch of the climbs.

    Good ol PCBBC.

    I didn't know him either. We may not have been paying sufficient attention to the KoM classification of the Tour of Poland in the mid decade

    I've seen that name before and Chernetski, but couldn't tell you anything about them.

    So a little lower to Eduard-Michael Grosu (73) for a name I've never seen before

    From the bottom Finn Fisher-Black because someone retweeted something he said into my timeline a couple of days ago. As a racer (not counting Healy who is from the Midlands) , Julien Bernard, I remember his dad.

    Could you imagine chatting with a 3rd rate cyclist during broadcast of the football World Cup final?

  • Starting the 3rd last lap. Expect something to kick off on one of the climbs here, either starting the selection or trying to put a rider up the road.

  • Nice to see Pidcock still in the front group. Rowe doing his usual stellar work in protecting and guiding other riders.
  • A question, something I've never really given thought to before.

    How do mechanicals and team cars work at the worlds, seeing as everyone is on their trade team bikes? Do the teams/manufactures send reps to help out each nation? Or have the nations got their own mechanic teams? Must be a nightmare with all the different components etc
