Classic... Apparently Cav' stopped on a climb to give a bit of advice to a fan who was shouting abuse at the climbers. :)

"Earlier, Mark Cavendish explained the reason for stopping to 'have a word' with someone on the Struggle yesterday. It was a teenager "shouting abuse" at the riders and trying to impress his friends, said Cavendish. The Manxman said he offered him his bike and suggested he do the climb. "There was no aggression," added Cavendish.

Nice hard racing yesterday with Stevo Cummings now maybe going for GC! He's got a mean TT on him so could be a great follow up for DD after EBH last year taking the top step.

Team DD on the front now looking for Cav' to take the sprint today or keep Cummings in the lead? 65kms to go with Ian Stannard, a JLT Condor rider and One Pro Cycling's Kristian Howse up the road in the breakaway by 6 minutes.

 

With only 6 rider teams, everyone can't sit and wait for DD to burn their matches if they want to contest this at the end.

Wow, you know the peloton is on a slow when you have Cav' drop the whole bunch on a climb and then zig zag for everyone to catch up.

20kms to go, peloton @ 7+ minutes to a solo Stannard with House and the JTL rider to fight it out for 2nd & 3rd 1'40" behind him.

Cav was playing lead out to Cummings on a climb yesterday... so think he is having a bit of fun on this tour

Stannard takes the win

Last I checked he still had 7min lead and the peloton seemed to not be bothered to bring him back.

 

Nice that the worker gets some glory[emoji122] [emoji122]
