    Mads is bossing this...

    Fred is either cooked, or very good at playing cooked.

    Not understanding what's going on hasn't been an issue for Kirby so far this afternoon - you're probably better off in German

    Was about to post again that Mads is bossing it

    Ned's analogy of a sheepdog with a flock is much better however...

    Well...wow

    That was incredible by Pederson. Absolute perfection. Properly hard when everyone in the world knows exactly what you're going to do and then pull it off.

    If you coach kids, record it and show it to them.

    For a day that was so hard... the breakaway made it with minutes to spare and the best sprinter in the breakaway won.

    Tbf he has the fastest bike. That hole in the seat tube is worth about 10 secs over 1km according to Trek's marketing
