    WVAs time isn't even in the top 5 at CP1 so it shows how things can change.

    Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.

    Will he have enough left come the final climb? I know nothing but seems he's so far up it could be asking for trouble.

    The cutback to see a frenchman cross the line in an irrelevant position is so f*cking annoying.

    I worked that out once I realised they went up hills faster than I go down them.

    Most probable outcome, today: The Big Two becomes The Big One.
    I can't imagine for one second that Jumbo will get their pacing wrong.
    Already half a minute up ffs.

    Hard to believe he can keep this up given how close they have been so far.
