^ as soon as we agreed, we were both doomed.
So Ineos and AG2R, among others, need to shake it up a bit to give their boys a chance at the top stop. I hope we see Mitchelton-Scott and Astana forced to pull while some teammates sit on up the road waiting to help Poels and Bardet if they can get a little space. Should be interesting, lots of others mixing it up in there, too. Maybe Kwiato was resting up today for that big move? Yeah, that's it. That's the ticket.
I think we bid adieu to Tejay from the top 10 tomorrow. I say that not with my heart, but with my head. Well, actually, after having come up van Garderempty a few times on prior Velo smackdowns, maybe a smidge of heart, too.
I don't know a thing about Teuns, or much about our debutante van Aert, so let's see!
