Melburn Roobaix fixie hippies, dejected dentists, Yeti Roadies...
There was 4 of us planning to head over for the roobaix a few years back, just a piss up and the only rule was the bike was to be bought from Scumtree for a max $100 including repairs.
Maybe someday.

And clicked over a lazy 1000 miles in 6 days...solid effort that.

Cav's Stage 4 win was pretty big and emotional. Great sprint and it looked like Van Moer might make it until about 1km to go and you could see the peleton bearing down like a savage pack of dogs. Haven't watched Stage 5 as I'd rather sleep than watch time trials.

2 to go, Cav on 32, Mercx record is 34.
Nobody is as surprised as Cav himself.
The cycling world wrote him off, he wrote himself off and went to a dark place.
Probably helps with the lack of Ewan, Groenewegen and Bennett.

Ewan was in stellar form, and would almost certainly have won at least 5 stages.

Definitely. But you've gotta be in it to win it as they say - stoked to see Cav making the most of it rather than Bouhanni hah. Would be nice to see Wout have a good dig in a couple of the finales though.

Wouldn’t be a TDF thread without Leopoldo The Saddle-Smasher making an appearance.

Some people say the tour is a sausage fest, well apparently it is but there is nothing worse than a stuck sausage

pogacar had to pedal a bit faster than "normal", but I doubt he felt any fear. Ben was too far behind him on GC. It would have been to UAEs advantage if another team held yellow and was obliged to chase down attacks.
Great to see Ben in a potential position to podium for the GC in Paris.

Ben was virtual leader "on the road" for a while with a 8+ minute gap, and Tadej said in interview after he had to attack to protect the yellow. Agree generally that even if Ben had taken the MJ yesterday Tadej would be confident of retaking it before Paris, I more just meant it was a huge effort on Ben's part to take so much time back on GC to the point that he was threatening the jersey.
