Can someone tweet Kirby and tell him to retire?

ID of bird no.28?

So good.

That was the best day for years. Awesome racing.
Have enjoyed explaining what is going on to my cycling-noob team and why everyone is getting overexcited.

"Pogi, you son of a bitch"

The crowds on these climbs cause me so much anxiety. I know it's 'tradition' or whatever but just give them some bloody room. I think it was Vingegaard who had to basically shove someone away before he got his flag pole through his spokes....

It appears
to be pronounced that way.

Wow ok. I'm wrong . Sorry Kirby.

That's embarrassing.

Bardet in 2nd pushing Pog into 3rd is arguably the real shock from today!

Can the gif/ memers get to work on Pogs little show to the camera

He's just getting warmed up, ready for Bastille day.

D E N M A R K !

Remember when Wout and Matthieu attacked at KM 0?

That was today!

He'll probably ship nearly a minute in the ITT over 40km, though.

What a stage, though. Got nothing done this afternoon.

Its been bugging me

Wout got a puncture riding down from the finish and gave his podium green jersey to an English fan with a pump

Such a classy guy.

What an unbelievable stage, i watched it in parts around calls but still, so much happening, so many attacks, amazing

I really like the jumbo jerseys
Loved the rolling attacks from Rogla and Jonas
Hoping Barguil would do it, then maybe Quintana, then Jonas
van Aert unreal
Also LOL Soler to the rescue

We are living in a parallel universe where people are wondering what is wrong with Pogacar rather than thinking that the man on the strongest team, who came second last year while working as a domestique, might obviously be able to do even better. And that bossing the Tour of Slovenia might just flatter to deceive.
