No the next bonus seconds are available on stage 11 which is wednesday I believe

Kelly just said there is 10 bonus seconds at the finish today?

This is the problem when there's a strongman leader. As boring a stage as I remember for a while. Ineos haven't tried a thing.

As I type they go to the front!!

Higuita would be faster if he walked

Stage winner time bonus I was only thinking climbing bonus . My mistake.

The best thing about Ben is that he is not British

De Bhál

Kids at their grannies, tour de France on one channel and hurling on the other. Life is good

Oh and O'Connor in my fantasy cycling team. Well and truly out of that though but this might help

Pogacar is a machine

Ha ha right if ya want me to keep the jersey Ineos I will says Pog.

retalivity

He's riding in a different sport at this stage

Brian?

Phenomenal ride by both Ben O’Connor and Pogacar.


Pity the tour is over as a contest.

Mefistofelino

Jaysus. Quintana can hardly walk.

Whens the last time someone won solo in a GT with over 5 mins gap to 2nd?
Colbrelli 3rd! Bahrain pulling it out of the bag again

15 points for Colbrelli I think

Mefistofelino

Smithy is slowly morphing into Frankie Boyle

Giving the way he’s climbing he should be targeting the polka dot.

1.5 minutes inside the time limit for cav looked spent. hows he going to do twice up the ventoux ?

edit : demare misses the time cut

2 teammates bringing him in and he looks fooked

"Zwift . Where fun is fast."

But Geraint is not fast. Therefore Geraint is not fun?

correct

retalivity

Bryan Coquard, Loïc Vliegen, Arnaud Démare, Jacopo Guarnieri, Stefan De Bod, Nic Dlamini, Anthony Delaplace all outside time limit

Edit: apparently dlamini is still on the course, well over an hour after O'Connor has finished! Poor guy crashed earlier, been alone for the whole day

Hard to comment without falling foul of the rules, genuine Chapeau to Ben O'Connor though!

There's always the having 40+ riders OTL in the Grupetto trick to avoid the DQ.

I know Froome had the accident and leg break etc... But how has he declined to the point of rolling in over 30 minutes down on the stage winner?

Maybe Bilharzie is back?

Yes, but probably with points deducted.

Maybe it was unrealistic expectation. Apart from Greg le Monde (who was still very young) I wonder has any other GT winner ever come back to the very top level from such serious injury.

Indeed it's usually a nominal(ish) Green Points deduction. In 2011 Cav got docked 20 Green Jersey points for being OTL along with 87 other riders on the Galibier Stage 18.
