Mark Cavendish ?@MarkCavendishThanks to the dickhead who crashed me at 3km to go today by waving his flag so it wrapped round my handlebars. Bike's broke. Leg's swollen.

ohhh ****
O dear - he must have had a bad day after falling earlier too!
Let's hope he can keep out of trouble for Paris.
Not sure if this has been asked but why do some riders take newspapers at the top of climbs is it as simple as just stopping the wind on the way down?
Yep
Yes. I still do it at the start of winter rides.
They've published the press conference audio here:

Absolutely classic Brad in the press conference today. A bloody well done from me.
Wrong its to read because apparently the tour is boring ๐
makes a very good point at the end about the fact that there's always negativity around what he's doing, whether he's peaking too early or whether he's winning because Contador and Mandy aren't here...
if I ever meet him, I'm going to give him a pat on the back and say bloody well done mate.
good interview ...
he is right - he has had an awesome year and he is still not given any credit.
Looking forward to bumping into him at Cedar Farm. ๐
I'd love to see some video of that conference focused on the press... I'd hope to see some downcast eyes etc and awkward shuffling of feet ๐
