It was nice to see Meinjes in the break for a change but the end result came as no surprise.

He just does not seem to have the power to be a factor in such situations.

On the longer term he will most likely go back to his old style of just following the top GC contenders for as long as he can and hope to grind out some sort of  a result.

Imo it is unlikely that he will make the top 10 in any of the 3 grand tours again.

How well are the wildcard teams doing?! So rad!

 

Also, Dylan Teuns.... sjoe. That guy has grown a set of balls and then some. 

 

This race is properly rad. It's like a spring classic every day!

At 27 he should be able to grow and mature but some riders peak early, some late and some never.

 

He still has time hopefully he'll find the right coach/team/lifestyle/home/social circle or whatever he needs to crack those last 9 places at the TdF.

Don't want to jinx Jumbo Visma, but they are looking good for the GC win.

 

Although Pogacar didn't light it up today it was still a decent ride by him, giving Supermarket a run to the line.
