I think the UCI itself makes the video available. Phone posting so I can't really search for you.

That was a really exciting race and a great venue. Can't wait for next year in.... Yorkshire :confused:

They've let the break go a long way out, seems like everyone wants the French to work. Feels like this race has already been awarded to Alaphilippe so hopefully something different happens (and the different thing isn't Valverde winning).

Took a punt on Kwiatkowski because 18/1 was pretty generous.

None of this went well.

Yorkshire will be great tho because it will be full of short 15% climbs, narrow rolling roads and about 10 million people on the side of the road.

Oh hey, Paris-Tours has a new route that doesn't suck rear end. It's got gravel sections :w00t:

Judging by his pedaling technique, I don't even think Voeckler is from Earth. His French citizenship is a lie.

Overtraining too young, or just shooting them up with "nutrients and natural hormones" to help them "develop optimally"?
