Tour de France 2018

Rum, beer, movies, nice websites, gaming, etc., without interrupting the flow of martial threads.

Yesterday was one the best Tour stages ever. Let's see what happens today. I'm watching the descent of the Galibier, and holding my breath watching Pidcock passing on the outside of mountain turns.

This what separates cycling from running and swimming.

That was exciting though I dont think it was totally justified... all the extra cornering stress and he was caught on one quick straightaway...

it will be an interesting final week- probably a 3 man race for GC but as Wout Van Aert has the green jersey locked up, I'd expect he will try to ride for Vingegaard and protect him a bit from Pogacar...

And yeah, WVA made a really key contribution today to seal it up for Vingegaard. Exciting stuff
