Tour of Britain 5-12 September 2021

[Samu Cuenca]

Yes, it's pretty skilled to keep it at 4 minutes 5 exactly for minutes!

Well he is a Carpenter.

 

[MartinGT]

Its now 4'11" LOL

 

[Ilmaestro99]

They are just letting this guy win today?

 

[glassmoon]

They are just letting this guy win today?

apparently... not sure if intentionally though

 

[MartinGT]

14km 3'41"

 

[MrTea1976]

The ad for PureCremation is beginning to really annoy me.

 

[titan31]

The peloton didnt really look like they were pushing it (although it's sped up) so he interesting to know the actual time here.

 

[roundabout]

It is genuinely over 3 minutes at 15km to go

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Same blue shoes as Rogla!

 

[Bolder]

At this rate it's going to be close...

 

[MrTea1976]

burn baby burn.....

at adbreaks i'm going for food

FATTY

That's a lot of snack breaks with itv4.

 

[roundabout]

definitely over 2 minutes at 10 to go, so GPS is reasonably close to an actual gap

 

[SafeBet]

Well I was wrong. Carpenter (and the GPS) deserve my apology. Hell of a ride.

 

[Red Rick]

Jumbo doesn't want to take no ToB leaders jersey too early.

 

[glassmoon]

he'll have at least a minute in the finish. they've screwed it up...

 

[Carols]

Who ever thought Carpenter and Rally would pull this off against the mighty WT teams? Go Robin!

 

[roundabout]

something like 2'10'' actual gap at 5 to go

 

[BlueRoads]

Either Carpenter was really incredibly strong or it was very much a case of Jumbo not wanting to seriously work and everyone else "van Aert will win anyway".

 

[roundabout]

1'10'' at 1 km

 

[Bolder]

Nice job! Peloton misjudged that I think.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Gutsy ride!

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Great ride, deserved leaders jersey.

 

[Rackham]

Same blue shoes as Rogla!

I came here to post this.

It's the era of blue shoes supremacy.

 

[Carols]

Bravo Robin!! He was born 30 miles from where I live. Never thought I'd see him taking a stage and the leaders jersey at a WT race .

BTW I've been to Exeter and loved my visit.

Will go nicely with that blue jersey
