But he’s a mountain biker so he’s still a bit of alright

Great stages over the last few days. Will miss tomorrow as heading back to Dubai…..wonderful racing!

[Fred van Vlaanderen]

Watching Main Cheeses emotional post race interview brought tears to my eyes. He's had a couple of tough years and really had an outstanding performance today. Really wonderful to see - special, special moments!

Been great watching today.   Also purely by chance work drags me to Paris the day after the Champs Elysses finish, so I'm going a day early to go and watch the finish.   Quite stoked as then I've seen the end of the Giro and ToB and TdF.   And I'm not even a roadie. LOL

Is he though? Surely we can't pigeon hole him.

The only thing South African about Froomie is where he went to school, and his accent to an extent.

I saw that, but only getting in around their finishing time. 

Afterall, I am taking a break in the middle of a Morzine mountain biking holiday to check out the TdF earlier before my meetings, and we all know  Morzine > TdF.

Well done to Louis.

Inspiring ride from Louis!

In the past have been critical about his performance, but this year he is going for it.

Rate it as one of the top cycling performance across all disciplines for a South African.

It was a privilege's to watch. 

All the best for the remainder of the Tour.

We might as well then claim Jan Frodeno as well.
