Tour de France 2017

It's 32°-34° out there this afternoon, and very windy.

No way. It'll be hard enough out there without going solo and fighting all the wind yourself.

Stiff tired legs after the rest day, lumpy start, cross winds, I predict a riot.

LOOK Mum No Hands has two shops - Old Street and in London Bridge

I'm going there from Thursday to Sunday to paint the Tour live and paint customers as well

So there's that too!

Rapha is also a cool place but it's not easy to get a seat - but standing is doable. There's one in Soho and one in Spitalfields (liverpool st)

Do we think ça va Bardet today on his home turf?

Seems more like a stage for descenders than climbers on balance.

Sprinters or breakaway unless crosswinds do something stupid exciting.

We deserve echelons...

Makes sense. We can only hope Joe.

A stage for sprinters, with a big descent - would have been great for Sagan.

Contador says "no mas!"

@hippy may need a lifetime supply

Yebbut, it's Mandela Day and Cummings is in a break.

Gracias

Surgery yesterday on broken collarbone. Today's stage is exactly what I need. Go Bling

I've just listened to Mandela Day by Simple Minds. Utter dirge.

I'm painting the Tour as it happens which you can check out on my instagram :) @CaptainSmithDesign

^That's great

tactically inept bmc at the back .... very accurate

What's going on with Kittel? Is he back in the peleton or being dropped?

Kittel is in the chase group of 46 about 2 minutes behind the peloton.

3 riders (Bennett, Pichon and McLay) are almost 6 minutes from the leaders.

And Bennett has abandoned now (they're saying possibly sickness on the commentary).

Not sure about Pichon or McLay.

Love this!

And ITV 4 online is down bugger

It's working fine for me.
