I thought I remembered a rule whereby it was incumbent on the rider coming from behind to avoid taking slipstream advantage. Or do I only think I remember it?
I do think he needs to.He looked good on the climb. He will take more time on Bjerg.
One discipline I'd love to see in Tour like once in every 4 years is a 1st-day ½TTT of 100 kms.Some of the 103 year old Belgians on here nodding approvingly at Robbie Mckewan talking about doing 68km time trials in the tour
Yeah he was moving about a lot but rhythm looked very solidGanna looked really good on the steepest parts. Good cadance. Will be hard to beat today.
