I’m saving it to binge once the race is over. I always suffer cold turkey when it stops, as I’m consumed by it for three weeks.

What an amazing sight for the Yates family!

Do we think Cav is going to break the record?

It is not going to come easily but yes. Champs Elysee maybe.

I don't think my nerves could take having to wait for that.
I had to be in a meeting at work this afternoon, I interrupted everyone with an "oh fudge" as soon as the stage winner notification hit my watch.

He got in to some good positions in that last 3k or so, just taken by surprise by the kick from behind and couldn’t react. He hasn’t got a lead out so best bet from here on in would be to just follow Philpsen’s wheel.

Sadly no.

Maybe they'll gift him the stage on the last day. That would really annoy Merckx!

He beat him a few times in the Tour of Turkey a few years ago. But then that was a few years ago.
I love Cav, my favourite ever sportsman, just think he is to old. Should not be beating younger guys in sprints really. But if someone makes a mistake he might be able to capitalise.
I'm working today but will watch for 5 hours tomorrow, Friday we are at Wisley meeting friends for lunch and Saturday the theatre. But will be watching all day Sunday.
I love the tour and it is one of my last ambitions to go see a mountain stage one year. As it is we are planning to do a weekend in Florence for the first stage and then the final stage in Nice next year.

No one will gift him a stage and sadly no Thomas to lead him out, don't think Froome has the temperament to do that.
Don't like Merckx, drug cheating scumbag.

Agony TBH, I thought that was it.
Not to take too a negative turn I just not sure he has the legs to get this now

That was his chance...a blip in the lead out...but Philipsen still with after burners to rectify the situation.
It's tough when there's a standout sprinter in the pack. But hey, that was the medicine Cav used to dish out.

Edgar Davids
There's still hope!...
Mark Cavendish has been speaking to Eurosport and says he did have gear issues during his sprint. What unfortunate timing for the Manx missile.

An unfortunate expression.

Just seen the sprint, Philipsen got a bit lucky there, looked like he should have been relegated to me? Cav could have got it by default.
Dicko
Edgar Davids
Yeah Cav seems gutted. Had problems with his bike according to this. Fingers crossed he gets another chance..

That does not look good for Cavendish...
Edit:
What a terrible way to end his last TDF.
