    WTF were the riders up to there? It was quite clear the cars were coming through.

    Absolutely, seen a stat that Turner has finished every race this season, with them all being World tour or Pro level races. Great for a neo pro

    Sheffield looks so strong, that cobbled climb looked savage. Some real good racing here.
