"We can almost consider him British" says Bradley Wiggins. I don't know how Sean Kelly didn't deck him. When are these clowns ever going to learn?

What a finish. Insane gradients to finish.  Fair play to Superman. Primoz still in the driving seat.

What a finish. This tour has been brilliant.

Wow, couldn't actually believe that as it unfolded, such drama for a TT. Roglic will be inconsolable when he gets away from the cameras, very gracious in defeat.

Primoz looked destroyed crossing the line. Felt gutted for the fella. Saying that he came fifth today and there wasnt a huge amount betweeb 2nd and 5th. Normally that would have been enough.
     But Pogacar was just awesome.

What a ride by pogacar, one of the all time great rides at the tour, great stuff. Have to feel sorry for roglic though, just didn't seem to have the legs on the final climb, probably a bit of panic also set in as the time gap crumbled away.

Did anyone spot the ghost of Charlie lurking behind Sam on the podium?

Guys what device do you use on your bikes? Was going to buy a garmin for my new bike as i've traditionally always used a Fitbit with GPS on it and then downloaded it onto Strava. So if i buy a garmin computer for the new bike do i need a watch also that's compatible? Or is that overkill? If i need just the bike computer then what do you recommend?

not something i am that up on as i've only just went from old style 20quid computer to a Wahoo bolt. Cracking device but it's too small for me as the eyes wouldnt be that great anymore. There is a bigger version of the same device but think its about £100 more.

I've been having battery issues with my Garmin 520 after 3 or 4 years use (40-50m spin and its near done, I've a power bank with me on all spins now). Keeping an eye out for a Wahoo Element Bolt myself, £185 generally, they should go down to £150 somewhere this Black Friday festive season. Noticed the Wahoos are generous with the oul climbing footage, my Garmin is kat in that regard.
