    He mentioned being advised by a teammate to drop back a little on the penultimate lap to get a bit of respite from the wind.

    He said in interview he went back to recover. He was feeling it a bit in the legs and one of the QS lads told him it was easier back in the bunch and to go back for a break!!

    Movistar won the movistar classification. It's about time the tdf organisers told the other teams it exists

    I would say Mammy Bennett's house is being measured up for a new set of Windows and doors as we speak.
    The sponsors seem happy and have rebranded their corporate Twitter page within the last hour

    If she is lucky she might get the dining room floor replaced too not to mention a weeks groceries from Lidl
