    OK who had massive straw rhino at the Valloire straw scultpure park on their Eye Spy for today's stage?

    I picked a good stage to have time to watch this year :smiley:

    Soler puts in a massive effort to cross so JV accelerate as soon as he makes it. Manages to get there though, very good ride. Yates needs to do the same now.

    Peloton coming back.

    Wout - incredible, meanwhile. Dropped Theuns. only 4 left at the front of the break.

    So distracted by the GC that we've not had comment on Van Aert just grafting at the front of the break. Shelling folk left right and centre

    Lots of effort for nothing by the looks of it as the rest of the group gets back too.

    Pidcock still there, looks like he's having to work for it though

    “We have seen Marc Soler riding away from the Movistar team before. The problem was he was riding for Movistar at the time.” 😂

    I don't think I've suffered in any valley quite like I've suffered in this one...

    Only for a few days. I'm strictly Alpine only this year. I'm off to bother some limas on Monday (Covid permitting).

    There's a lovely walk up this way over the top and down to Névache.

    JV are ridiculous, the only ones with more than one rider in the yellow jersey group and they have 4 with WVA ahead!
