Anyone watching the Dauphine.

 Just catching up with the first stage.  Should be exciting with some big names.  Hope their weather is better than ours.

  ;D wonder whether he still shaves his legs though  ;D

Pity it's Highlights and not the whole day ........

Nuisance along the North Norfolk Coast road yesterday, there was obviously a sportif ........ cycles everywhere  ::) and the roads are narrower than when I was growing up here  :D ......... it's when they look round to see what is behind and wobble across the road  :o

It is a shame but it will open up the Tour, a little bit. There are lots of other exciting riders out there. 🚲

Dutch rider Marriane Vos, a former world champion, had led Britain's Lizzie Deignan by nine seconds after her stage two victory on Tuesday [until a crash today].

The peloton crash also saw the former world champion's CCC-Liv team-mates Jeanne Korevaar and Valerie Demey unable to continue as the 145.1km stage was neutralised for about 25 minutes on its way from Henley-on-Thames and finishing at Blenheim Palace.

Ten riders were taken to hospital with "minor to moderate injuries", race organisers said.

If it's a fractured femur, probable pelvic injury and fractured ribs he won't be walking any time soon.  Would love to see the X-rays ;-)

........ the Girls had A Day too  :'(

No "there may be scenes that you find upsetting" warnings prior to either races today  ::) but OH!

I was never confident watching Froome on a fast down hill stretch, he always looked slightly nervous. I hope he hasn't lost his nerve now after this awful crash, his injuries might heel but the test will be a mental one  :-\
