Never gonna let you down.
Scary thing is this kid just won a TT in the giro. Van aert and vanderpoel battled their whole career in cross, now I think they will dominate the classics.

Cav wouldn’t have made the time cut at half of these stages but Nizzolo’s not even getting TV time......
I only mention it because Ewan sprints like CAV (at 30% Cavs watts that is). ?

And (somehow), 30% lower towards his front wheel.
I know you don't like the Manx Missile, but even though half his TDF wins were with the HTC express, dudeman could surf others lead outs like few others.

A little CX, he's a 3X champ! I was under the impression that Mathieu Van Der Poole was coming with him to the Tour, haven't seen him. Is he hurt?

I give credit where due..... no one had a more explosive surge than he did in his prime,
Ouch, that stung a little.

He rode out of his skin. I’m really rooting for him. He’s burnt a lot of matches, hopefully he can hang in the mountains with the time cushion he’s built. Bummer about Van aert.

I have to say I'm very impressed with how seamlessly Thomas moved to support Bernal. I'm sure he questions if he was on another team if he could have smoked him on 20 and claimed the lead, but maybe having won last year he didn't feel as torn. Pro move and I'm sure he'll be back next year when the clear top three riders all wear the same jersey.
I think Bernal was the leader the whole time. It is hard to tell, but one thing is certain, Sky has perfected the multi-headed dragon approach. Maybe Movistar should take some notes.

Movistar made some very confusing moves. I’ve heard Landa and Quintana don’t communicate well with the team.

There was one stage where Landa went by I think was Quintana and didnt utter a word. It was strange to say the least. Movistar is kind of the original super team in some ways but they've never put it together like Sky has.

EB is likable and really “did the work” not just coast along and put in like one attack a tour like the typical “Evil Empire” GC’er. Just had to root for him once Julian’s run was over.
That being said, it won’t be long before the resentment begins to grow in me...... it’s inevitable.
