Would've been right up Valverde's street.

Sadly yes.

Whilst it was great to see G in yellow, I feel a bit sorry for Vasil Kiryienka, who was in the Green Jersey. I know he's not British, but I feel it should have got a mention...

Very PH stage today , they are taking in a small section of Spa, they ride on at La Source, past the pits and chicane, then off just before turn 16.

Surreal cycling on Eau Rouge! Looks so steep compared to the F1 cars

[Puggit]

[S100HP]

Animal

[Unexpected Item In Bagging Area]

The words 'cool' and 'cucumber' spring to mind

[blade runner]

Seriously impressive to win at that pace despite unclipping!

[ferrisbueller]

What a machine.

Got to feel sorry for the holder of the best young riders jersey...

[Highway Star]

Guillaume van Keirsbulck is going to have a long afternoon deep in the pain cave...

Nasty crash there I had a bet on Cav as well as an EW bet on Sagan so a few quid won but Cav was up for that one.

[silverfoxcc]

Cav.looked in a bad way.

It looked like Sagan gave him a nudge, but the TV said Cav hit a wheel. Either way, was looking forward to him getting a stage or two.
