Got to have the bike with the motor for important climbs

No. Bike gets checked at finish. Motor used to arrive fast at bottom of climb, then changed.
Sad for Kittel and Matthews - he'll be wearing Green in Paris now, but won't get all the glory of having to fight for it. I'm hoping he still gets into the break tomorrow for the intermediate, and that Sunweb still blow away the other sprinters on Friday just to prove a point.
Sky looking a bit shorthanded..
Kittel only had green because sagan wasn't there.big part of success at tours seems to be navigating to the end with some luck on your side
Dan McClay has climbed off too now 🙁
One of my Faves Dan, sad to hear he's off. Smithy is hoping to get him on for a chat ... that'll be nice.
Did I just glimpse an old Yamaha Lc at the side of the road?
Cripes..
Lots of rolling shoulders at the rear of the peloton.. and another 42k left.. 😐
The Galibier is only going to stretch things out more...be interesting to see who has made the final cut in the last few Kms of the climb. Wonder who'll grab the Henri Desgrange trophy?
Dan M' just popped off, no chase from Sky yet..
Not sure they'll bother. Will he be able to do much on the descent alone unless Bardet cracks on
Sky pulling him back easily, not a lot more in the suitcase of courage 😆
That move has to be a worry for Aru
Aru in trouble
Fireworks!
Glorious terrain today!
They really all smell blood don't they? Aru is getting mauled something vicious
Landa resting for the final climb.....
Landa just chilling
Consider this:
Landa and Dan Martin work equally hard. One of them shows it and the other doesn't.
GC have caught Bertie 😐
Just heard Landa was struggling? Maybe it's just a poker face..?
Yates dropped.
Woohoo, the decent drop offs !!
Fabulous Moto and copter shots on the decent.
Martin and Aru are 1 min off the yellow jersey group. If I was Uran, Bardet and Froome I would be smashing the descent and valley road to put them out of the running completely.
Gutsy performance Son. 😀
And a fabulous ride by Bertie.
Still all to play for tomorrow!

Good day of racing! Huge noise in Serre Che as well.
Tomorrow decides the race, then?
And the GC

Edit, too late.
Still 2m28 for Yates - looked worse than that at the finish.
Any news on the white jersey? Just got home so missed it all
Too slow..thanks
Yates still in white but Meintjes is now a bit closer.
White jersey is Yates vs Meintjes, so the gap is closed a little, but still fairly comfortable for Yates.
Oops, poor Dave B hit by a barrier. Sad
The look of Landa

^^Stealing that!^^

Quality stage.
Macron was at the stage today, had his photo taken with the podium girls, obviously he missed the thread.
obviously you missed the point
😆
Ooh, Aru could easily lose 30 secs to Landa tomorrow if he doesn't keep up with the group.
Second and third decided on tenths of seconds?!
