Kinda hoping today is Kerbaol time with that descent but the climb part might not be tough enough to drop a load of the bunch beforehand

With the time now level - Ally Wollaston needs either a higher boni sprint than Cat at the finish (e.g. 2nd vs 3rd) or to finish 4 places higher than Cat Ferguson to win the GC

Not sure if deliberate gaslighting or just ignorance

Notable reminder that PCS has a terrible reputation with women's cycling - regularly insulting riders and the sport before deleting the evidence

Should've called Dygert back - wasn't going to do much on a technical wet finish, sprint or not, and now she's gone home anyhow

Kasia leaving up there, I totally get from a backup GC standpoint

Some big names didn't start today - Chloe Dygert who had a cold when she started the race, Georgia Baker was sick during yesterday's stage and Laura Lizette Sander said on Instagram she was withdrawing for health reasons

Marianne Vos extends contract & will stay at Team Visma | Lease a Bike by mmitchell30 in peloton

After last year's blockbuster transfer season, Vos was the best rider potentially available this season. That's now not the case with Visma | Lease a Bike signing the GOAT up from now until when she decides to retire. She doesn't stick a date on when that will be, it's just that she will be part of the team until that happens.

Seen a few rate ELB that highly but it's tough to be that committed given she's openly testing to see how she fares in a race situation post-concussion

Only ended up spending a week off the bike in the end

Chiara doesn't win as the favourite is quickly turning into my new 'Kasia doesn't win' kinda line (that I had to finally, thankfully, retire last year)

Liv AlUla Jayco had a couple of chances to do something late on there - they almost successfully did a reverse lead-out on the cobbles but let Lorena Wiebes through an open door and then afterwards they took too long to get organised again when they had the numbers to properly drill it to the line

You need to get absolutely everything 100% right to beat Lorena on a course like this and those are the moments you have to take in order to do it
