I was eating cake. What's happened in the last 20 minutes?

You've eaten the cake.

Maybe I am still eating cake too!

You're eating a cake for half an hour?!
It must be the whole thing.

There were three cakes...

So, it is Landa vs Fraile, 25 riders and Team Sunweb....
Landa should win

If either of them involved ice cream, I think we know the answer...

If they do that Movistar will just play chicken and let the chase group go further up the road.

I am talking about the chase group make the Movistar riders do all the work

Hoping for a Landa win, but most importantly, he looks amazing for the last week. And there are lots of opportunities!

They still have a chance at the stage win if they manage the gaps properly.

Wonder if Landa will be told to wait if Thomas attacks

 

[sir fly]

Some thunders here... Not sure it is an announcement.

 

[Ruby United]

Sunweb will be happy with how things have gone so far. Considering how the stage started, the large break, the firepower in the break and the three Movistar riders, they will be happy the gaps at 3:20 or so.

Looks like Landa is really tiring now though.

Re:

To pace him down the downhill? Lol, Landa hopefully wont be called back at any time if he has possibilities for a stage as Thomas' ceiling is 5th as it stands right now and still is an unknown in the 3rd week.

Re:

Why would they since Sky knows he ignores their orders anyway! :lol:

 

[rick james]

2nd group now hammering it.
