    87km to go and we have a group of 15 favourites about to catch the early break and starting to prep the finale. Bloody hell, bike racing

    Trentin didn't look happy.

    There was a gap between the group with the Danish lads and the group with the Belgian lads there. Gap to the break is very small now.

    OK, MvdP, Van Aert, Mads P, Pog, Bettiol +1

    Haha no, I'm sat on a cast iron railing behind the pavement, it's very uncomfortable too.

    Bruised a rib mountain biking yesterday and in quite a lot of pain!

    Breaks almost caught, that's no gap at all, the group was round the corner before the break crested the hill

    It looks like they may have cleared the road

    Nothing says 'fight climate change' quite like stopping people riding bicycles. Their messaging is so terrible.

    Greenpeace showed how it should be done last week.

    I think these protests are counter productive but professional cycling seems a more logical target than most sports. UAE, Ineos, Bahrain, Total all happily welcomed for the greenwashing.

    10 seconds only between the two groups

    Only switched on half an hour ago as I’ve been at a running race. Is it only the break and the chasing group left in the race? I’ve only seen one Brit but not sure who it was.

    Dutch kit is rubbish.

    The commissaries have chopped a lap off. Luckily the riders will be told over their radios. Oh…
