Pog= absolute mad lad

Not going to get much past bouncer Wout on a flat stage.

Bradley Wiggins is like that old friend of your girlfriend/boyfriend that you really wish they'd get rid of.

Wow!

Wooooh lovely stuff

Bonkers power by Laporte. He doesn’t even look that tired.

French stage win almost at the death.

amazing finish to that. electric from Laporte.

but well done Fred Wright - lads had an epic tour

Fred Wright attacks. Hatch: "right said Fred", "is it going to be alright on the night", "it wasn't right for Fred".

Imagine you win take your first pro win as a stage of the Tour and almost all the footage of it will have some idiot making shit puns about a band from before you were born.

"Right, said Fred"

Kirbys on top form.

Five stage wins (and counting...) amongst four stage winners and all the jerseys between two riders.

Decent Tour for JV then.

And THAT is why I will endure cremation offers and the poppy lottery.

That’s not even the original genesis of the phrase…

all the jerseys

but white

Dream tour for JV

Pog sneaked 5 seconds by sprinting

Vingegaard is still 25 isn't he? Think Pogacar has been wearing it in lieu of him all along?

It was Kirby commentating, not Hatch.

A month too old IIRC.

Was looking this up as that's what I'd thought and he just misses out is what I found, not sure the exact date that is used but he's 26 in December so might be has to be 25 at the end of the year or something.

Riders qualify if they are under 25 on the 1st January 2022. So Vingegaard misses out by 21 days.

Ex-Cofidis rider wins stage in his first Tour with a new team, meanwhile their 14 year stage winning drought continues.
