I'm just gonna post my rambling thoughts here for old time sake
First thought: I know everyone must have thought the same thing about the "traditional" TT helmets when they first came out, but these helmets are getting ridiculous.

Wonder how Remco would go if we ever had a TT heavy TDF again. Every year it's fewer and fewer TT kilometers. Would be interesting to see what might happen if the climbers had to actually take significant enough time on him in the mountains to overcome his gap from 100+ ITT km's. Of course with Pog being only a tick behind, maybe it doesn't matter. But would be an interesting dynamic that they've kind of been working out of cycling the last decade or so.

What in the world was Lenny Martinez doing? Refuses to pull the whole way up the climb despite being the only rider with GC ambitions and therefore even more incentive to keep the pace high, then leaps around for second at the end and is frustrated at the finish. The break had a legit shot there and he blew it. He's now in 5th overall, but he could have actually solidified that if he pulled at all. Instead he has to beat Skjelmose tomorrow who looks pretty good right now.

Oh wow I remember the times when we had one thread per tour week, sad that it's become what it is now..
Today's stage is very interesting though, Carapaz and Pedersen really giving some power to this stage. Let's see if the attackers can go and fight for the stage win.

We had one per stage when I joined. And unlike this one it went to the second page.
