    Was trying to figure out who the 12year old with Mathews is. Blimey he looks different without the facial fuzz

    Blythe questioning Carlton's daft comments is a real breath of fresh air. I get that you have to start some discussions about the bigger picture of what's going on but at least make it make sense

    There can be no good reason for the two vans in the break today - neither of them is likely to help much on the way up the second climb.

    My guess is that is pure deterrent. Pog attacks, takes vingegaard with him, for what? To be outnumbered again.

    Thoroughly doubt anything is going on in Pogs head when he attacks other than "Let's have some fun"
    Why do people act like he's 4 years old?

    So watching the Belgian summary of the day so far and absolutely no mention of Jumbo tactics 😉😉

    Are the Vans rolling through in the break?

    It's pretty marginal to say the least just as a heads up

    Because he rides like a delighted kid and it's very endearing?

    Precisely - Smiling and waving for the camera, saying he's going to attack and then doing so, sprinting for finishes with nothing to gain. He's enjoying his racing and it's certainly a nice break from various GC riders in the past 15 years who couldn't do a thing without it being calculated

    Wish ITV would get in with live coverage instead of highlights of last week. Otherwise I'll have to work out if I can Chromecast ES Player from my phone

    Impressive.
    That’s twice in the last hour, then. (See, I read your posts.)
    Wish I could. Absolutely knackered after last couple of nights of hot air gasping and bucket sweating.
