Vingegaard riding half the team's bikes in a minute or so, including Van Hooydonck's three times too big bike

And that was Van Aert down for a bit.

Today is going to be....quite something So happy Wednesday is my free day of the work week, this stage really deserves to be viewed in it's entirety 1. Filippo Ganna (4) - 4 2. Fabio Jakobsen (1) - 5 3. Mads Pedersen (12) - 17 4. Peter Sagan (5) - 22 5. Mathieu van der Poel

You know, until the mountains start

Philipsen thought he won Legendary ride by Van Aert

This totally can't go wrong.

1. Filippo Ganna (4) - 4 2. Fabio Jakobsen (1) - 5 3. Mads Pedersen (12) - 17 4. Peter Sagan

Time for Tim van Rijthoven's biggest match of his life, again

And well deserved for Schumacher. Extra internet points for that super ballsy move in the last corner

So in terms of GC riders some lost time for Uran and Martin, and the Bahrain boys although one can wonder if they can still be counted as GC riders after the....issues of the past days Also Michael Woods with 39 seconds gone.

Sagan seemed angry at Van Aert mostly. Or at himself, which wouldn't be illogical neither, but seems less realistic

Is the result known yet? Personally I'd be all the way in favour of the second option, police and emergency services in general should have clear stripes on their cars, in my opinion. Makes it easier to recognize. From a non-Slovak point of view: it looks like a good chance, that green looks like someone picked it in 1975 instead of 1993 and then everyone forgot about ever changing it the slightest bit

Looking slick! Congratulations

Luckily nobody fell in the water below that bridge. Unlikely, sure, but we've seen cyclists tumble over higher barriers than that. I think today I'll keep an eye on a live blog or something until 16:45 and start paying attention with 10k to go

Just a few days to go, I just realized! Hopefully streaming will be on point and (especially) available on-demand. Can't really spend the whole Games watching while working

Steur badly needs a lesson in dealing with disappointment

Cool

Well that bridge of which so much was expected didn't really turn out to deliver...they simply made the pace so low even Uran could easily get 1:30 minutes back on the bridge 1. Filippo Ganna (4) 2. Fabio Jakobsen (1) 3. Mads Pedersen

1. Filippo Ganna (4) 2. Fabio Jakobsen

Although in reality it was just wet white paint, but the banana being next to it made for some jokes, yes

Not 15 minutes into the 80+ hour event and some people already are in trouble in the pick'em game. Thanks Bissegger

And according to the teams also later, hence the early starts for almost all favourites

Nice mass of people in Copenhagen

1. Filippo Ganna

Meanwhile, with the Tour de France starting today, is anyone interested in a little game? I think we've done it before last year or the year before, a pick'em game, shamelessly stolen from a Dutch forum. Simple rules: 1. For every stage you pick one cyclist (with the deadline being that day's start time) 2. The classification the rider gets that day, is your number of points 3. Lowest number of points wins 4. You can choose every rider only once during the Tour 5. The worst result will be scratched, to have one chance to miss a stage for whatever reason (or just to have a bad one not ruin everything) 6. In case of a DNF or DNS for whatever reason (or if you pick a rider you've already picked), you get the points that equal the total number of riders who finished that day's stage 7. Everyone keeps track of their own scores An example how your list could look after 10 days:
