Pogačar is on another level, and I don't mean that in a 'nudge, nudge' way either, I think he is sound, he has the full package. He is only 23 too!

Like [MENTION=225]Hamilton[/MENTION] says, I wonder if these early efforts will cost him in the next 2-weeks, probably not, or not more than others though.

Looking ahead, an interesting stage tomorrow in a truly beautiful part of the world.

There's every chance Pogacar will win his third Tour de France before Merckx had even competed in his first.

With 11 stage wins already, our assumption that the Merckx/Cav record was one for the ages, doesn't look so certain.

I've only been watching TdF for 10 years or so (and don't watch other cycling), but Pogacar looks a prime candidate for GOAT (if we're allowed to use such terms for cycling).

You mean The Albion could comfortably beat him 4-0 missing a further 3 open goals?

Pinot lacked power in the end … called by Eurosport about 30 minutes back.

Ned and Dave worked it out the moment Super Bob went over the last climb.



Always been #TeamBob so am well happy.

Interesting last 500 metres today.

The front 4 almost ground to a (relative) halt, with an ice cool Lennard Kämna waiting at the back, in a game of tactical chess. Shirley one of the 4 would win?

But allowing the chasing pack to overtake them.
