It may be a day for the break to soak up some glory

 

The start will be intriguing as its going up at the gun.

Whats not to like?

 

Trust? He's a pro cyclist!

He smiles to much?

That’s suspicious behaviour for a pro cyclist...

 

Just kidding

 

It’s just a gut feeling nothing concrete against him

My gut feeling is that he is a cool cat.

plus Svein Tuft agrees with me...no one argues with the swayno!

So no breakaway today?  Skyborgs injecting pain.... practicing for TdF and keeping pace high and hard?

Confirmation of Chaves' deficit crackles over race radio and Sunweb hit the front of the peloton. 


 


This is a big development. There's always someone who gets it wrong on the rest day, and it seems Chaves has fallen into the trap. It leaves Mitchelton-Scott with a headache, as they've got a pink jersey to defend, and can't put all their resources back with Chaves.

Still no confirmed time gap back to Chaves. It seems he has one teammate with him in Sam Bewley, in what is the fourth group on the road (Breakaway - Cavagna/Bilbao - Peloton - Chaves).
