Kennaugh is a very inconsistent rider. Not someone you want to rely on as a domestique. Hopefully there won't be a huge outcry when he likely isn't selected next year.
Four or five days ago I started urinating blood because I was throwing the bike around so much trying to hang on and I damaged something. That was one problem and then on Tuesday’s rest day I got a really bad virus and was in bed with all my clothes on under the quilt in 30 degree heat and I just slept 18 hours. I couldn’t even walk down to the dinner table I was so ***.
