He was already struggling on the last hill tho. Kelderman looked much better

He's always struggling

Jesus Christ what a carnage. Still more than 100 km to go. I doubt more than 20 riders will finish...

A song for Brad:

Hey fair weather friend,
You know you're ripping me down again,
And I don't care what you say,
I can tell when we play,
That you don't believe in me,
So this is how it'll end,
Like it was all just a waste of time,
Now I got nowhere to go,
I think I'll call up my bro,
I do believe he can save my hide,
I've had enough of your alibis.

name that tune...

 

[T-Nielsen]

Team GB sure played this one well didn't they.
