This is getting seriously stressful for me now.

From a fantasy perspective I’m loving seeing Froomey diesel up on the climbs, but as the tour goes on that cheeky £20 I had on Contador could buy me some nice new bike bits!

Better get shopping then scaled.

What odds did you get for the win?

Feeling slightly less stressed now, scaled? 😀

Cracking stage – a fight, the top 5 battling it out up the final climb, and Bertie powering away for the win. The kind of stage I missed in the Tour!

Looking forward to them getting back in the mountains today
