I hope this ends better than the last time I saw a Danish rider of a Dutch team (this team, even) ride in the yellow jersey

 

No nightly press releases and such please. 

Don't even joke about it!

What a terrible day to be busy at work, looks like I missed a spectacular tdf stage!

[Wumo 3,002]

What an impressive win by Vingegaard! 

 

I also first today realised that me and my wife will be in Paris the weekend the Tour de France will end. I had somehow completely forgotten that it was that weekend Tour de France ended this year. What a nice surpise I gave myself and the wife subconsciously

You sure did. One of the best in a long time!

Tough choices today. French day, because 14 July, or Dutch day, because finish on the Dutch mountain?

Can't have the Alpe without remembering this fantastically hilarious stage  

 

Especially Manuel Beltran's impossible acceleration at 3:10 is just superb.

This night, we've lost the pétanque tittle at the world games. So really, we need that one.

Spectacular descent of the Galibier by Tom Pidcock  - made up 4:30!  
 

Also brought  Chris Froome up to the breakaway.

 

And Pidcock is now riding solo for the win. The Gendarmarie are now allowing drunk fans into the gap between him & Meintjes.

Gaudu & Quintana paying for their big days yesterday.

 

Bardet also.
