We are expecting 10 inches of snow tonight, starting around midnight,
I want to see the first flakes. So I will finish out this race.

Daaang, 10" of snow, you got your snow shovel all polished and ready to go? At least tomorrow is Sunday though, so I'm presuming you won't have to go to work...

Nice to see the entire UAE team sitting around Vine.
Not nice to see that those are the "entire UAE team"...

Not sure who the Aussie commentator is (might be Robbie McEwen), and he just said the hottest temp he ever raced in was 52C. It should come as no surprise that riders were dropping like flies of heat stroke. Thankfully it's only 32C where they are racing today...
48km to go and gap has shrunk to 1:33s

Plapp dropped back and assumed domestique duties by collecting water bottles for his teammates, Novak was dropped, so now there is a break of only two.
EDIT: Actually Plapp just collected water bottles and isn't dropping back to the peloton, so now he's riding around with a jersey full of water bottles, not sure what his plan is with all that extra weight.

Real Chris Harper attacks!
And now Jefferson Cepeda attacks.
The Movistar one... someone needs to tell Mielke that you need to specify when they're both in a race...

I think Uno-X should ride too, to protect their top-10 spots.
And of course Decathlon should ride so Lund can sprint.

Normally I'd be too, but... well... there's this Danish guy who's been pretty good in the sprints.

At last Brennan gets a win!
Except for the kangaroo incident this was a pretty good ending to this year's edition of the TDU, I thought. And to all the riders who crashed and sustained injuries this week- heal well!

The commentators thought so but nothing was shown and PCS isn't saying anything either. So, who knows?
Kudos on making it till the end btw., is it snowing in your parts yet?

I see a kangaroo almost took out Vine. Not the smartest animals. Have a tendency to run towards hazards rather than away. Vine was lucky.

Technically, it did take him out.
He just escaped relatively unhurt.
(Did attempt a bit of a Vingegaard-style bike change dance, though.)

Yeah, Vine was saying in post-race interview that kangaroos are the biggest danger on Aussie roads for cyclists. And Brennan said he got smacked by the kangaroo, so he had actual contact with the cute but not so clever marsupial, didn't stop him from winning though.

the EF one is Alexander Cepeda, so there actually is no need to. At least if he uses the right name for him
