    We need more inserts like that one about the truck that cools the road. Not the boring ones with riders talking tactics.

    There's a truck that goes in between the peloton and the caravan (in front of the peloton), clearing the road and marking obstacles and closed roads. It was interesting!

    I was imagining some mad machine blowing cold air onto the road to cool it.

    And the guys take the road temperature, when it's too hot it sprays the roads down to cool them.
