Super time trialler

Good quiet leadership.

“To be honest, I'd almost given up hope of the stage win. It was starting to look very disappointing when I saw Chris beat my times at the intermediate check. I nearly started to cry. I couldn't believe it. I was more-or-less sure about the win as I had a good advantage to guys like ‘Chava' and Kwiatkowski who really strong time trial riders so I expected that Froome might get to within 30 seconds or something like that but not beating me at the intermediates..."

Sagan catching some slip stream during the TT today.

No wonder he did such a good time...

That car was blocking his way.

The guy's too fast.

Probably something delaying his course on that narrow lil road...

Still not sure how tough these cycling hardmen are?

 

 

 

“Luckily some of my skin is back [after the accident of stage one] and I can sleep on my back again. I'm more-or-less recovered... for sure there are still some wounds that are open but we riders are used to this so it's no problem any more.

Tour history trivia:

 

Raymond Impanis won the longest ever Tour ITT way back in 1947. The Belgian rode 129km (86 miles) that day.
