LIVE: Tour de France FEMMES 2025 | Stage 6 | Mountains #watchthefemmes #TDFFAZ2025 #biketerra
Let’s get rolling here. Colin Inside Cycling
World, folks. Let’s get it. Uh, good morning everyone. Let me just check some stuff out here,
guys. Um, okay. Looking not bad. We are on camera. Yesterday, I forgot to turn even turn my camera
on, which is kind of strange. So, thanks. Uh, I think it was Don who reminded me. Guys, looks
like a little bit of a delayed start here today. So, I had every intention of being on at 6. Then
it said the neutral neutralized start doesn’t even begin till 6:25. So let’s go take a look at that
for a second here. Uh you can see in the corner here uh neutralized starts not for 10 minutes. So
interesting route today. Let me just uh fire up the YouTube chat for myself. Apologies guys. This
is the same routine every day. If you’re brand new here, I notice Sandra looks like she’s brand new
here today. Uh Sandra, hey. How’s it going? Uh, I kind of go through this little rigomeroll at first
where I’m trying to set everything up. This needs to stay open. Skip that. Get the side panel open.
And there we go, folks. It should be pretty much all set now, guys. Awesome stage yesterday. Uh,
great sprinting. You heard me say it during the sprint live as it went down that Kim Lort almost
gave it away. I mean, Demi was closing so fast on her. She looked over her shoulder and then later
on through the day, you know, in the afternoon after I’ve done my stuff, uh I saw all the media
talking about it. Uh I saw it live. We saw it live. Uh and some of you here were with me. Okay,
so let’s get it. So Sandra’s brand new today. Sandra, where you from? How did you find us?
Dreams back again. Bright and early today. Reuben hose is here. Hey guys, me and Ruben. Uh, Ruben’s
an OG OG supporter of the channel. Has always promoted me. And, uh, yeah, Doug, insane stage
coming up here, guys. Again, it’s 10 minutes away. So, I just want to cover this first. So, yesterday
I did that stage yesterday and I think I zipped outside quickly. Had about 15 20 minutes. Then
myself and Ruben who’s in the chat right now. Uh Reuben’s in Belgium guys. We rode what stage would
that have been? It was the mountain time trial from the tour to France this year. The paragood
stage. Uh remember it was about 10.9 kilometers. I think only the first three kilometers were
flat. So I jumped on. Reuben had to step away. I think he had to answer the door. And uh so it’s
like 10:00 in the morning for me. It’s past 6:00 at night for Reuben and I just soft pedal. I’m
like, well, I just want to get going cuz I had a bunch of other stuff to do uh yesterday. Rode
the the first three kilometers flat. Then we took on the paragoods. Every corner of that stage was
burnt into my mind uh just from doing stage was it stage 13? Yeah, stage 13. That was it. Stage 13
mountain time trial of the men’s tour to France uh up to the airport. The airport looked really cool.
The only thing that disappointed me a little bit, and it totally makes sense, is that when you’re
winding your way up that final ascent and you see the airport, there’s a left-hand bend and you cut
across, hit the bottom of the airport, which is angled downwards to help with the uh takeoff of
the planes. Uh so they kind of like launch away from the mountain. You don’t get to go up there.
It kind of goes around the side and there’s some buildings up at the backside. And I’m like, okay,
well, that’s not the greatest. But then I thought, you know what? It’s an operational airport. I get
it. It’s just the way it is. Uh Sheila Newman here saying, “Thinking set up a trainer. Do you use uh
did you say Kicker Core? Do you have a Zift Hub?” I did say Kicker Core. I think that’s probably
your easiest most for what you get out of it. Bang for your buck. The the Wahoo Kicker Core is
probably the best trainer out there. It’s going to do everything you want. Is it going to simulate
25%? No. Uh I think it simulates up to a max of 16%. But to get a trainer that’s going to simulate
25% accurately, you’re probably going to have to spend $1,000,100, $1,200. Whereas you can get
a Zift, sorry, you can get a Wahoo Kicker Core, uh $400, $500, something like that. Uh they were
on sale a while back anyways. Uh probably the most common trainer I see. They’re tested, they’re
proven, uh, through and through. Uh, do I have a Zift Hub? I don’t yet, Sheila, but that’s a very
good idea. Uh, my friend Steven Cycles, who’s in the channel here quite a bit as well, Steven’s in
Scotland, uh, myself and Steven have ridden all over Scotland doing the toughest climbs virtually
inside together. So whereas me and Ruben did the uh mountain time trial yesterday from France
from this year’s tour to France uh me and Steven have ridden oh we’ve done lots we’ve done the qual
term together we’ve done climbs in Norway together uh we’ve done the hardest climb in Scotland
Beak Naba that’s a brutal climb guys brutal uh extended periods of like 18 to 19% uh gradient uh
we won’t get anywhere near that today uh even Even though Bilak Naba, I was looking yesterday. It’s
only considered a category 2 because it’s short, but it’s insanely steep. Uh, so yeah, Zift Hub,
great idea. Looks like the race is off, guys. So, they’ve done the neutralized start. So, let me
get the timing going on here. Let’s see what they’re saying now. So, we are getting tracking
now. Is this the neutralized start still? Uh, I’ll have to wait to see what’s coming up
here, guys. What we’re going to do right now, we’re going to jump in again. Let’s take a look at
um the videos here today. I want to take a look at this. Let’s take a look at the route. So, here you
go. Here’s the route. This is what we’re taking on today. I’m going to zoom this out for you.
Starting in the Flatlands. Very interesting stage today. The route profile, we’ll get to that in a
second. It’s just fascinating this one to me. Four categorized climbs. There’s actually a climb they
show on here as being categorized. I’m going to try to pause it for you when I see it. Cold to be.
That’s the category one. Then we take on the call to chancert category two. There’s another climb
that’s going to pop up here. Just watch this one. That guy there. We’re going to pause right there.
Let’s just So, it’s called the coat develier. Let’s just back up again. We’ll come back here.
This climb is the bonus time out on course. So, it’s shown as a climb here. There’s no climb
points associated with it. There’s bonus seconds that you can steal out on the course. So, great
for the breakaway. Great for the climbers to get ahead. So, there’s the category one again.
Category 2 follows up shortly thereafter. The next guy, Co develier. Then we bomb downhill into
the finish line. I’m going to show you that again here into ambert. So, let’s bounce out of that.
We will go into stage six here. We’re going to go into the sport. So, here’s our profile. Super
bright, guys. Uh, okay. What’s Ruben saying? Uh, oh, yeah. No, Sheila. Yeah, I see what
you’re saying there. Did you say use kicker core? I don’t use a kicker core, but that would
be my suggestion for everyone starting out. Uh if you want to get started and you just want
to try to get into it, there’s no point in buying a $12, $1,500. You can spend 2 and a half grand
probably on what they call a smart bike. So think a really souped up spin bike, but it’s fully
smart enabled. It’s got all the extras that a road cyclist wants. It’s not a spin bike, it’s a
smart bike. They are the primo items out there, but Attacks Neo. Yeah. Uh, Ruben, I do have a
tax neo. It’s the 2T model. So, I think there’s a brand new model now. Super accurate. Uh, massive
resistance up to 25% gradient. So, I can pretty much simulate anything that’s out there. Uh, no,
you’re right about that, Sheila. You’re right. Uh, whoops. Maybe I mean smart cog. Same thing. Zift
hub. Smart cog. Same thing. So, guys, Sheila is talking about a little thing that you put on the
back of the Wahoo Kicker Core. You can put them on any trainer. It was kind of designed for the
Wahoo Kicker Core. And there’s also a Zift Ride, guys. That looks like a stationary bike inside.
Those are really slick, too. Uh Sheila, if you’re interested, look up Zift Ride. I’d love to have
one. It’s a dedicated inside virtual cycling bike. That’s all it is. Uh but the Zift Hub cog lets you
convert your bike to a one-speed on the back and you have virtual shifting. So, you can basically
climb anything you want. You can have big gears, you can have little gears. Uh, let’s move on,
guys. Uh, so we got a category three to start. We had a sprint point super early, 30k in. We got
another uh first categorized climb here. Sorry. Category three, first climb of the day. These are
small bumps. Uh, getting steep 1.7 at 6.8%. The second climb with rollers in between 2.6 km at
5.6. And here’s the deceptive one, the call to be. Uh, it says it’s 10.2. That’s the categorized
section. They’re going to be climbing for 25 km here. If you take a look at the feed point here,
you can see feed and garbage point here at 55 km. It’s almost up to 79 km uh to the top of the
calib. Quick descent downhill, bounce over the duchansert, 6.3 km. Here is that last climb of the
day right here. Val civier. It’s called the coat uh develier on that map that we looked at that
video. Uh it’s time bonuses. So when we take a look at the sporting stakes here, 25 points
on hand for the first sprint. I think there’s uh what did I read? I think it was 21 points.
Yeah. 3 6 10 and five more. That’s 21 points available to anyone that could steal every single
one. So, I think the uh everything’s going to be flip-flopped today, guys. I think everything’s
going to be flip-flopped. We’re going to see Elise Shab uh probably trying to defend that at all
costs. So, that’s going to put some pressure on her team to keep her up there. Uh there’s going to
be other riders going out. Silk Smolders perhaps. I caught her in another video yesterday.
She’s a really good climber. Uh at the end, we’ve got 20 points for the green jersey. So, this
the intermediate today is more important than the end. Uh there’s got time bonus at the end and that
final coat that’s not classified. We got 64 and 2 seconds there. So guys, let’s jump into it now.
We’ll bounce over here. We’ll see where they’re out on course. So technically they kind of screwed
up the time today because they said 6:00. Uh if you looked online this morning, they said 6:25.
6:25 now, guys. But let me get into this. Uh we’ll cover all this. I do have bike terror running
in the background. Uh Andrew Bella here. Uh good morning. ICW family. Dude, good morning to you.
Good luck to Demi this morning. She both caught them sleeping yesterday. Absolutely, dude. I saw
that live. Uh Doug wants the standings here. Doug, we can do that for sure. Here’s our standings.
I’m going to back up a bit. Let’s do uh Okay, we’re going to go back to stage five individual
standings in the GC. So, this is your overall leaders right now. Two 2025 Tur to France FEMs, AX
Swift. eyes. We have Okay. Is this correct right now? Is this correct? Yeah, this looks right.
Uh Kim Lort in first place, 18 seconds back, maybe 16 seconds back there. Pauline then Demi
Valering in third. Cashia in fourth place. Cashia was involved in that sprint good yesterday,
too. I saw her talking about how she should have followed through on the sprint when Anna went
really early. Looks like Anna Vanderberg just kind of got cut off a little bit. kind of pushed
towards the uh the barriers. Marian Boss. So, look at this guys. Uh team Vizma, Lisa Bike,
very powerful. They have riders in second, fifth, and sixth place right now. Awesome stuff. Uh AG
Insurance, Sudal, Kim Lort in first. Let’s see how she hangs up in the hills today. And Sarah Gagante
in eighth place. We got Ruachers here. Uh Fenix D Coin Cashia for Canyon Stram obviously Khloe Diger
looked awesome at the sprint finish yesterday too. Uh Puck Peters in ninth. So I think it’s a day for
Puck to come out and start showing off for us. So that’s our standings right now guys. We’ll take a
look quickly at the climbers cuz today’s all about the climbers guys. So here’s Shabi Shab uh there’s
Silky Smolder. She had a good breakaway day where she picked up a bunch of points. Brody Chapman
got points yesterday in her breakaway. Anna Vanderberen in fourth, Garcia in fifth, Allison
Jackson in sixth place. Uh, Silki’s got to pick up Silk has got to pick up five points to tie Shab
here. So, Liv’s going to be out in force today, guys. Let’s get into it. Uh, here we go, guys.
And we got a breakaway already. So, in that little bit of time, we looked at the GC. Uh, we had a
breakaway. It just refreshed. They’re all back together. uh sprint teams are going to try to hold
this together. There’s more sprint points at the start, the what we call the intermediate sprint,
the first sprint, because it’s not intermediate, is it? It’s at the beginning of the race day.
It’s 30k in. I would expect average speed to be very high at the beginning here. Uh Dawn
saying, “Let’s rock. Good morning, Collins, dudes.” So, we did the standings there. Uh
yeah, and back to Andrew again. Yeah, dude. Uh Kim Lort almost blew that finish yesterday.
I saw it live and I’m what? So, you know, my video is delayed. It could be 30 seconds, 40
seconds. I like to call it the way I see it. I don’t want to just see the standings. I don’t want
to listen to someone else. I’m looking for things that I like to see. I’m looking for little details
that maybe other people aren’t seeing. So, yeah, she let off, looked looked over her shoulder,
and started celebrating. And Demi was carrying way more speed coming to the line. I mean, it was
half a wheel length, but she could have lost the stage very easily there. Uh, and it’s stage
of the tour to France, so that’s a big deal. Let’s rock. Bang bang time, folks. Bang bang time.
Today, it’s going to go off. Uh, dream team here. Okay. Uh, 10 km at 5.4. So, that’s I think
you’re talking about the call to be here that we’re seeing on screen here right now. Let’s have
a quick peek at that. Yeah, I’ve got 10.2 at 5.6 thereabouts. Right. You look in different places,
you’re going to find different segments. So, I was on all the apps last night. You can find
a range. It just just depends where they decide to pick from. So, like if you look at the screen
here quickly, one segment may pick it from this very most lowest point and do that’s the whole
segment. Someone else might say, well, no, it’s actually from this steepest part here. It’s just
depends whatever they pick for the segment. So, it can change all the time. Uh, okay. So, yep,
Dream, you’re right. Yeah. Uh, that category one, it’s going to be probably a very elite select
group in the front there. I could imagine we’ll be going up. There’ll be probably five or six
riders left together at the top of the call. Uh, the category one there. Yeah. So, after that,
Yeah. So, we did all that yesterday. I did a climb yesterday, pair of goods, and tomorrow, I
think Reuben has the hoticcom lined up for me. So, what was that? Hodiccom I think was stage 10 at
the Tur of Francis here and I’m completely out of shape. Uh it’s actually a longer steeper climb
over on Ruvie. So I think we end up climbing over 1200 m tomorrow. I’m not prepared for it.
I’m just going to gut it out. Uh average speed right now is 41.7K an hour. 25 degrees Celsius.
So the heat’s going to be a factor here today too. We’ll jump into the map. Not a lot to show you
here right now. They’re all sticking together. Uh let’s look at the race feed here.
There was a quick break earlier. Okay, two non-starters, Valentina Caval Cavalar
and me Bourdal Odust for Uno X. Actually, I heard that crash yesterday. Remember there was
a big crash before uh Sarah Tazit and they say a Sarah Tazit rider because they’re not sure either
who it is was joined by a Moverstar representative in an early attack gained in seconds. We saw that
happen. Uh but there were withdrawals yesterday, guys. Uh from that crash. There was I think there
was non-finishers. So there was a crash early on. Lena Vivas was uh in it. Obviously, it didn’t
impact her. We’ll come down here. Let’s just see. Look at yesterday. Look at the damage
yesterday. Like that’s insane. Okay. So, uh, Kristen Faulner, I think she crashed out in the
neutral neutralized zone, lost a bunch of time, and she withdrew. Uh, one rider didn’t even start
yesterday. A canyon rider here, Agnesia. Uh, then there was a crash and a bunch of riders went.
Oh, yeah. Alisa Bosamo, sprinter for Lead El Trek, abandoned yesterday. Uh, I think there was two
UNOX riders abandoned yesterday. Here they are. Uh, Katrine Alarude and Maria Guilia Conaleri
from Unix, both abandoned. And that was after the crash, I think. Here’s one that’s catching
my eye right away here for Kofford uh Eugenia Bjac. This was the rider that I think the day
before was off the back by herself. Remember, I think it was stage four. She crashed at the
back. There was two Kofford riders that checked up on her and I saw her wave them on. They were like,
she was like, “Go.” And then for the whole day, I never saw her. And I kept saying, “Where is
she? Where is she on course? I don’t see her transponder.” So, she would have survived that.
Started stage five yesterday and pulled out. So, obviously the impacts from the day before hurt
her. Here’s our two non-starter state. Wow. Uno X has been decimated, guys. Uh, they’re already down
three riders. And let’s see what else we’ve lost from Unoax. So, go to Uno Xibility here. I think
we’re going to have four riders left. We have three riders left. Oh, we lost corner as well.
our corner here. Uh, Confilineri, Alarude. So, we got Zenetti left. This team has been really
beat up. Uh, and the majority of that was from the crash yesterday. Jump back into the stage here.
You can see now we’ve got a group trying to go. Not sure who they are. Let me get things fired
up over here, guys. Have a sip of the coffee, guys. I’m wearing my new jersey today, too.
Finally came. I love it. I love this jersey here. Uh, okay. Give me a second. Give me one
second here. Everyone bounce along here with me. We’re going to jump back in. Sorry, I did that
wrong. I have to do this quickly in the background here. I got to activate this. Uh, okay. Where
are we? This one here. I think this should work now. There we go. Boom. Boom, guys. So, the new
jersey today, the Metallica ride the Lightning jersey. Not a super tight fit, not super loose
either, just enough. It’s comfortable. I like it. It’s got good breathing panels on the side.
Uh, haven’t even really checked the pockets out in the back. Three pockets in the back. No zipper
on the pocket. Man, the price was just right. Price was perfect. Let me get in here so I don’t
uh desync this. And from what I’m seeing here, there’s a lot of riders trying to push off
the front here. There is a group out front 600 meters away. These might be riders trying to
bridge up there. So, let’s have a look, guys. Oh, check out the the drawing in the distance there.
This is really nice. Now, thank you so much, Bike Terra, uh, for providing me with this awesome
data here. If you’re brand new here, cuz I know there’s always lurkers. Hey, lurkers, get into
the chat. Get into the chat. So, 366. What? Take a look at this, guys. This is insanity here. I
love stories like this. One rider at front. Okay, she might be gone now. That just popped away from
me. But one rider up front was Lena Vivas up front by herself. Looks like she’s probably back in the
Pelaton there. I’m going to do a double check over here to see if that’s legit or not. Uh, someone
was up front and they’ve been pulled back now. So, you are seeing that. So, again, this is data.
So this it looks like this is where Lena was up front. The Pelatons pulled her back. We got a
little bit of a data lag from Lena. Again, guys, this is data from the tour to France doing this.
Not by Terra at all. Let’s take a look at the map here. It’s going to get really juicy later on
in this tour in the stage today. I mean, yeah, big train station here over on the right hand
side. I think that’s what you’re seeing here. So, you can see the train lines here. If we zoom in,
there should be a bunch of train tracks here. Yep, there there is. So, that was the big train
station in that city. Uh, showing up really well. I’m going to turn the path on. Turn that back.
That kind of does a quicker refresh, I find. So, everything’s back together. I’d love to see Loreno
Vivas go again. I know a lot of people call her the evil villain cuz she wins everything, but
the way she sprints, maybe she deserves it. Uh, yeah, exactly. Here, I love that. Uh, okay.
Ruben saying that was stage 12. Okay. Uh, or stat is GC. Cavalar is also GC. So, we’ve
lost GC contenders here. Uh, Don says, “Callin, I’m also in New Jersey.” So, yeah, guys. Don’s
in New Jersey. I’m in a New Jersey today. Uh, I love it. Kind of. I showed it to Joey. So,
it’s Metallica Ride the Lightning. You know, we love Metallica here. Whatever your musical
tastes are, I appreciate it all. Uh definitely don’t hate on uh just closing some stuff here.
I had a bunch of stuff open. Still trying to figure out the camera. So I do have access to
the uh I guess it’s a higher mode camera. There is a leading group again. Who’s in this leading
group now? Okay, so we got another rider off the front here. Just going to quickly bounce back and
see. Yeah, we got a leading group. Uh right here, Merlinette. Uh FDJ Suez. Ooh, sending riders up
front, folks, early. I love this kind of strategy. Let’s get some FDJ riders up there early. You can
see her just in the distance there, 300 m out. So, I imagine the attacks off the front right now
are insane. As soon as I see them over here, I’ll tell you what I’m seeing. Wow, guys. The
uh San Sebastian Classics on this weekend, too. I’m going to see if there’s a way. That’s a world
tour event, single day race. I’m going to see if there’s a way that I can do that one this weekend,
too. So, I’m going to cover some classics races. Actually, I’m going to cover all of them. I’m all
in, baby. I’m all in. Uh, again, I’m going to keep pumping the Valta because it’s coming to me. I’m
more excited about that than I even was the tour to France cuz I love Lavalta. So, yeah, one rider
up front here. Where is our second group? So, we’re out in the countryside here. Have a little
look around. Look at all the details. Okay, so we got some weird data again, guys. It’s just popping
around. I’m going to bounce out of there till the day data stabilizes a bit more. We saw that
yesterday early on. I didn’t I didn’t really like the data stream coming through from tour to France
and then it got better later in the stage. Yeah. So, all back together again. They’re going to be
talking about that here. Tener attackers, Marie, Lynette went and they’re all pulled back. So,
these are breakaways that are going to be getting like four and five seconds pull back. four and
five seconds. Pull back. Uh it’ll be a long string of riders going out. The front of the Pelaton will
be snaked out behind them. They’ll pull them back. The sprint teams need to keep this together. I
can see FDJ Suez sending riders down the road uh to use to vault up those climbs later. Uh okay,
Fred’s here. Fred is in the mix, too. I’m going to bounce back, guys. Robert’s back, too. Hey Robert,
good to see you. Good morning folks and dudes. Uh, Uno X Compodium with Odest now GC and three
mountain domestics withdraw. So much bad luck. Yeah. Uh, Uno X has been like just destroyed from
that crashes and no one got to see that crash. You can look all over. Well, maybe it’s somewhere, but
I looked at a bunch of videos yesterday afternoon. I like to see how other people do things and
kind of turns me off really when I see it. Okay, so we are seeing a group here forming now.
Here we go. There’s another group trying to form now guys. They’re going to keep pushing the
sprint all the way. Very lumpy course. Uh cost more cost for getting off the front. French
rider here. 59th overall at the moment. Can she get away these gaps? 10 seconds guys.
They can pull that back in a heartbeat. Uh, so Robert’s here. Good morning from Dawn
Lands DV. How about Marian Boss? Maryann will be in that Pelaton. She’s currently Yeah, Marian
dropped in the standings yesterday cuz she got dropped on the final climb. Uh, never got back on,
but we can look at that for you, dude. Actually, we can do it right here. That’s bright. I think
Marian’s sixth still overall. Yeah, Marian Voss is sixth overall right now. She’s uh 37 seconds down.
Today is going to be a tough day for her. Today is going to be a very, very tough day with all
these climbs. Okay, we’re back here, folks. Now, it’s saying we have a solo attacker. That’s Morgan
Costan who we’ve already seen. Once it gets to a bigger lead, I’ll jump back into bike ter and try
to show you the separations. I don’t think this is going to last either. The sprint teams are not
going to give away 25 points. They want them. Uh, this is their time to shine. Uh, who thinks
Lena Vibbas is going to win today? How about that for a poll? What’s the How’s the VBase fans
going? Uh, okay. Fred, hey Colin, I was watching Lamond and 89 tour. Quite amazing. Finan was
gassed in TT. Didn’t even wear That’s right. He didn’t. I found it interesting the fans hand
out newspaper and stuff uh in the front of their probably of their jerseys. Yeah, dude. In the old
days when they climb over the top of the climbs, they grab newspapers and stuff them down their
shirts. That’s how they used to do it. Uh we got Anna here from the Niagara region jumping in right
now. Good morning, Anna. Uh just still getting tweaked here, guys. You know, it takes me a while
to get rolling here some days. Uh 61 watching, guys. We had a really good turnout yesterday. It’s
building. It’s building. I even did a post like Joey Jojo is all over my stuff for me guys like
the inside cycling world page on Facebook which I am in and out of. I need to be in there more.
Instagram Joey Jojo hands all that. I respond to everyone that I see. So I got to go through
it every day. Um the YouTube prettiness stuff, all the hashtags and stuff. So people 20 seconds
now guys. This is interesting. So they’re letting it out to 20 again. They can pull this back in
no time. Stay here for a little bit. Let’s let it develop a little bit more. One rider out front
here. Still cost on here for Roland. Smaller team. Uh this would be like a prolevel team,
I believe. I think this is a wild card entry. Uh yeah. So she does all that. I just study
the racing. I just study the riders, the teams. Going to make a series of videos. I don’t know
when after all the big racing is done. So guys, we still got all sorts of racing next month
coming up. Figure out how I’m going to do that next month. It’s constantly evolving here.
Last night, I had someone ask me, “Hey, can you please do the I think the name was Paige.” And
I I don’t think this rider viewer, guys, I call everyone riders. Uh they might have been in the
chat, but they’ve got a different name showing up uh on YouTube. They said, “Can you please show the
Jirro next year?” I’m like, “Absolutely. That’s totally in my plans. So, as that develops, I’m
going to just go back through the chat here. Yeah. So, Don’s liking the shirt, dude. It’s awesome.
I think it’s a really good fit. The price is so perfect. And it’s out of Canada. So, I just saw it
on Facebook and I just thought, okay, as a whim, I thought for the price, I’m like, I’m going to
order this stuff and see. Well, Joey ordered it for me because she’s the Metallica fanboy,
if you want to call it that, fanboy. Coffee. I love Metallica, too, though. I kind of got into
the music. It’s not just Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Kill kill kill. Party party party. It’s nothing like
that. Guys, go listen to go just look at even if you don’t want to listen to the music, just
just go read the lyrics. You can go on You can go on iTunes, turn the lyrics on, and read them.
You’ll be like, “What?” It’s so different than a lot of modern music. Okay. Uh, Vivas is trying
to escape, but no one is going with her. So, she comes back. SD work plans maybe is
to be in a strong break on the flats. So, the GC teams will chase. Uh, okay. So, Marian,
so that was LansV there. Lans DV. Dude, let us know where you’re from. Or is it Oh, it’s Ian’s.
It’s Ian’s DV. Ian, let us know where you’re from. When did you start watching? How long have you
been cycling? Uh, Jersey on the downhills. Not sure if they will still do this. 35 years later,
dude. Fred. So Fred’s continued his thing there. They still stuff newspaper down their jerseys.
In fact, there was a funny thing that happened at the tour to France here in the men’s. There
was a lady on the side of the road had a sign up. It was cardboard. It’s kind of a smaller
sign. Julian Alfipe for Twodoor Pro Cycling. Snatched it out of her hands and tried to jam it
down his jersey just to shield that cold. Uh he’s very traditional. He’s French. That’s what they
do. It was a sign for Vout Van Art. So she was cheering Vout Vanard on on a different team. He
stole her sign. Afterwards, he returned the sign to her and himself, Julian Alipe, Vout Vanard,
and the lady all got a picture together. So, all was good. I’m not sure if you guys caught
that. Uh, Mixa, who do you think’s wins the GC? I still think it’s going to be Demi. I think uh
we’re going to see Demi really come out today. We saw her almost win the sprint yesterday. How
do you guys like all the uh the team drama right now? There is so much team drama. It’s uh yeah,
it’s crazy between the directors for both teams between FDJ Suez and Vizma Lisa. Uh the ASO has
stepped in and said it’s not our fault that she crashed. And then FDJ saying no one has respect
for Demi out there. Vizma saying she doesn’t get to ride along in a golden cage protected. Uh I
kind of agree with all of it. They’re they’re just saying there’s a lot of disrespect and
there’s people cutting her off everywhere. Yeah. Okay. That’s bike
racing. That is bike racing. Smash like. Thank you, Doug. Yeah. Guys, hit
the like button so more people see this later today. That’s the only way I can grow this
uh channel and this video so that it gets to more people. I noticed yesterday really
good views later in the day. So people are finding this later. They’re at work right
now. Maybe they’re North Americans. Maybe they’re in Europe and they’re catching this
the next day. They don’t they’re not getting this type of coverage. Uh and this is what
they want to see. So there is a 10-second gap. Goston still out front. No more updates
here. Let’s just see if we can jump back into by terror for now. Long pause there as I was
thinking. And we’re going to jump to this rider here. See if I can get this loaded up. Have
my coffee. Yep, we got this loaded up. This is looking legit to me now, guys. Uh, it’s about
a 900 meter lead. I’m just going to take a look back at this hill here. So, I know Ian’s brand
new. So Ian, you’re look, if you’re still here, Ian, this is a cycling application that I use
all the time and it gives me a way. They’ve got the data from the tour to France men’s and the
fems here and they can display where the riders are on course. So it gives you an idea of where
the riders are. Right now, this is not going to show us a lot as to what’s developing on
course because there’s an 800 meter gap. But if I was to bounce back here, see, I just
lost data for the Pelaton. Now it’s back. So, we’re going to bounce to Alise Shab here. It says
they brought her back. So, the data is coming in 15-second bunches, if you want to call it packets.
And I think the packets are really delayed. So, it looked like she was out front by herself with no
one around her. And they’re probably all back with her now because of the delay in the data packets.
We saw the exact same thing yesterday morning. So until that behaves itself, I will jump out of
there guys. Uh and I will be waiting for my data to come from tour to France. And again it that is
what happened. So it’s a delay in the delayed data from the tour to France. Remember it’s tour to
France, not bike terra. Maybe they waited a minute to send the data. The catch has already been made.
We see it happen on screen kind of like as if it’s actually happening. It’s delayed. Uh, okay. Back
here. Yes. So, Demi, uh, yeah, please smash the like button, guys. Doesn’t Doesn’t help my ego.
Uh, a pretty confident dude as is. Thank you. Um, and also guys, we are in the pipe. 5×5. I like
to say that every day. That means we’re locked in. We are dialed in here. The likes get other
people to see this video. They get to jump into the community chat here. And this is what I think
makes this channel work as a community chat. So, I appreciate every single person here. Uh, part
of my auntie weebs biases from Robert. After Demiy’s crash last year, I was very lucky that I
stayed on my bike. Yeah, I know. I know, Robert. I know exactly what you’re talking about. I love
it. So, uh, I was very lucky that I stayed on my bike. Wasn’t it VBZ that crashed into her? Yes,
it was. I think it was Viviz that bumped into her. Demy’s goes down. They’re teammates last year,
guys. When I look back, I saw something yellow on the ground. That really sucks, guys. There’s other
other podcast and YouTubers out there. Yesterday, uh, someone said, “I looked and saw something
green on the ground.” Basically making reference to that point that they basically just looked and
said, “Oh, what’s that big shiny yellow thing back there? Oh, maybe it’s our team leader. Maybe
it’s a garbage bag. a bright yellow garbage bag laying in the middle of the bike race and
they kind of just abandoned their team leader uh the yellow jersey at the tour to France.
I just thought that was brutal. Uh Kim Lel, uh good morning. I’m I’m glad you’
be covering the vault. Yeah, Kim, I am so looking forward to the vault here, guys.
Riders going out the front again. This time, whose turn is it? Uh look at this name here. Uh
she’s for Satazit. Uh Mirmont’s first name. Yeah, I probably need help from Dream here to help me
pronounce this. I need some phonetic spelling. I’ve never seen that name in my life. Let’s see if
we 10 seconds, guys. These are just little riders popping off the front. Popping off the front
trying to keep the speed high. Take a look at the average speed right now. 45.8 kilometers an hour.
That’s very high speed uh at Tour to France fems. Very high speed. Uh great early average. legs are
already going to be hurt in the first first 30k. 15-second gap now and then we start the climbs.
So, this is going to be an extra juicy fruit stage today, guys. I even Okay, so I said this
morning I told you Joey takes care of all of the uh kind of the social media stuff that I hate
hate hate hate. I love talking to people. I don’t want to set things up though. You send me
a message, you’re going to hear back from me. I had a phone call from someone. Someone left me a
voicemail message. I don’t know who the dude is. I think he’s super nice guy as well. Left me a long
message. He’s from Virginia. His name is Russ. So Russ, if you ever see this video, dude, I got your
message. Uh my phone is only for Canada. So every time I send a text message, it’s 75 cents. 75
cents. Anyways, and if I call him, it’s worse. So I got to get on a better data plan here. So,
I think he’s confused me with someone else there, but knew me by name and tracked my phone number
down. So, I thought that was really cool, actually. So, here we go, folks. Pushing here.
So, this must be Mymont up front still. There’s a chasing group. No riders identified. Data
feed from the tour radio here is quite slow. They don’t know what’s going on either. So,
it looks like we got at least a couple riders out front. The Pelaton is 5 seconds behind. So
really the essentially there’s no gap right now. Uh VBZ is not going to let them get away, guys.
Yeah. So Robert, great point there, too. And guys, if you want to talk about that, like how do you
feel about Demi just being left on the side of the road like a bag of yellow garbage last year?
I think that Yeah, it was insane to me. I’m like, do you even have a director sportif in that car
where the radio’s not working? I would have been, guys, I would have been screaming, “Guys, hang
on. Demiy’s down.” Uh, I think she crashed just outside of the neutralized. It was Yeah, it was
close to the finish. Her one of her teammates ended up winning, so they were happy about
that, but they gave the yellow jersey to Casia, who ended up winning. Yeah, no one wants to join
Weebis. Demi Voler will climb further up the GC today. Lumpy is her jam. Exactly. Dawn, it’s going
to happen today. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Demi in the yellow jersey today. Again, don’t
forget too on the far right hand side of the screen there at Valvier’s uh that that’s an actual
climb. I think it’s considered a category 3 climb. They’ve removed the categorization on it and just
given it as time bonus. If you’re over that first, you got 6 seconds. Then you got a tiny bit of
flat and you’re descending all the way. So, you better be up here first at the uh time bonus
point. I will jump back again here. Find out where we are. Leading group says they’re almost 500
meters up the road. Linda Zenetti, I’ve seen this rider before. And I’m going to turn this on, start
showing some of the fun stuff of bike terra, guys. So, here we are racing along. It’s 500 meters. We
might be able to see the Pelaton at times. There they are, guys. If you look really hard, I’m going
to put it right below that thing in the middle. Uh, the HUD kind of at the top screen. There’s a
little black dot back there coming out of those trees. That is the Pelaton right there. We’ll jump
back to the Pelon. Let’s hang with Demi today and we’ll take a look back. Can we see that little
black dot? Maybe harder to see one rider, but I mean, you’re seeing all the hills in the distance
here. There is a little bit of what I call like the fog of cycling, the fog of war. You know,
you don’t know what’s outside of your visual, you know, your site. So, you shouldn’t get to see
it. Here we go. Coming into this town here. Linda is doing a really good job here. Let’s see if this
is real. It says Elise Shab has gone to the front, guys. Wow. She’s going hard. She’s trying
to get herself up the road. You guys, you can see it’s lumpy already here. 3% gradient.
Uh, if you’ve never ridden a 3% gradient outside, if you’re not into inside cycling yet, you will
be someday, guys. If you watch this long enough, you’re going to want to try this yourself. 3% you
notice it. 3% you’re going to notice it. So, this is such a cool view here. I’m going to just jump
away by myself and hopefully this doesn’t desync. Yeah, Shabi’s in the front group, guys. Shabi is
100% in that front group. So, she’s gone ahead. Uh 500 me. She must have put in a huge effort. I
think she knows she needs to get points early. She wants to get away right now so she can get to the
points first, not have Demi come along later and steal them all from her. I think I can. Okay. Uh
there’s a way I can close the leaderboard down. Oh, I can make it like that. Okay, I can make
it like that so you guys can see more now. Yeah, I love it. Look at this rolling countryside
here. We’re way out in the country now, guys. You can see that all on the map down below
on the right hand side, too. All that greenish stuff. The different colors of green indicates
like farmland, forest land. And looks like Okay, I thought we were going to be descending into that
little town down there. Actually, you can see the road in the distance, I think, looping around
that town. We’re going to loop way around that town here. Wow, that’s really good, guys. Really
good. Bike terra. Guys, give Bike Terra some love. I want them to see that people are watching their
product. Again, guys, I’m not affiliated with By Terra. I just shout out people who I like. That’s
how I do it. or if you got a cause, you know, guys, one of the first Tur of France videos, I
shouted out someone that was doing a uh I think it was a ride for dementia. Well, what would it be
called? U Alzheimer’s. Didn’t know the guy. He was raising money for it. He did his first ever 200
mile bike ride. Had never really been into cycling before. Came back a few days later and said he
completed it. Raised a bunch of money. So, that was really cool. Uh let me catch up, guys. Fred,
did you see Alpha Lee grabbing the fans Carbo sign this year? Same thing. Tore it in half, stuck with
the jersey. Ended up being a great story. Yeah, he got a picture with the lady later and with vout.
It was a vout support sign and he stole it from her. Dream uh Vanderberen is a good descender. So
is one of the GC favorites to win the stage. Yeah, get over the top of that last climb time bonuses
and uh descend into town. How are we looking for video feed here, guys? It’s going to be a little
bit still here. It’s terrible that they don’t show the first hour. And it’s nice to know it’s not
just me. I look at all of the uh what do you call it? The mainstream media that are covering this.
They don’t have it either. They talk about that. They’re like, “We don’t have it either.” So, I’m
like, “Okay, good. It’s not just me.” 7% gradient here, guys. They’re actually climbing here the
entire time. Climbing, climbing. Bottom of the screen, you’ll see the profile right in the
middle. And you can see the lumpy bumpy parts. I better take a look and see when the sprint’s
coming here. I’m going to jump out of that for a second, guys. Let’s just jump out.
We’ll come back to this point here. Oh, we’re almost on it. We’re almost on it, guys. I
apologize. We’re almost on the sprint point. We won’t get to see the sprint live. Uh well, we
can’t hear. This is about the best we can do live. I might actually jump back to bike terror
for this, but I’m not going to know where the sprint point is. Actually, I think someone asked
that question. Could they put up gates to show where the sprint points are? Uh, I’m sure
bike terra can h can do that. That’s just, you know, it’s extra work for them right now. I
think what we’re getting is pretty amazing. Uh, Vanderbran. Okay. Niagara region. I feel like
Rumple Stillskin Po second in the GC and Voss sixth. How did this happen? I’ve been busy with
training for the world’s uh two titans who have been racing and they are both world champions.
Anna, who are you training with? So Anna, when you say the worlds, are you talking about I know you
said earlier there’s someone there that’s going to worlds. Anna, will you be doing the my whoosh
UCI thing esports? Let me know about that. Also, Cash is a good descender. Actually, Dream, I
saw Cashia descending yesterday. She is a pretty uh heroic descender, I would say, through the
sprint point there. only two riders. They would have taken uh 25 and 20 points. I’m assuming uh
Vivas will get 17 points if I can get any data here. Yep. Shabies go to the front. We already
know that. Joins Linda Linda Zanetti for Uno X Mobility. Yeah, great move by this team that’s
just been like destroyed at this tour so far. So, they’ll be going through. I’m just going to look
for that and then I’m going to get really excited. The sprint point guys, it’s always fun, but I
love the climbs. And I’m not really a climber, but I do them. I will grind my way through them.
Like even yesterday, we did uh paragoods. Let’s say it’s I think it’s 8 km and you climb 650 m. So
8 km, 4.8 mi. 650 m. That’s over 2,000 ft. So it’s steep, but it’s not crazy. And again, I missed
the airport part. I wanted us to ride right up the airport runway. It’s an operational airport.
Again, it’s only a 12-second lead, guys. Looking for points here coming through. Still nothing from
the Tur France yet. So, that’s data I’m waiting on from them. These little coats you see coming up,
Kot de Corpierre, Cotto de Azarel, these are small towns in the region. It’s like the hill nearby
the town. They just name them after that. Uh, let’s take a look back again here. Still no
points. Nothing from the tour to France. Uh so let me get caught up with the chat. Anna, if
you could let me know who that is, who are you training with? Also, are you training for esports
UCI stuff? Uh or my whoosh Kimel. Oo guys, just suck. Why do you think Demi left SD works being
left behind and the team signed at Vanderbergen? Uh, well, I think Kim’s just asking a rhetorical
question there. Why do I think Demi left SD Works? Because she get she got left on the side of
the road like a yellow garbage bag, according to some. I think I think we all know the story.
It’s it’s a fascinating story. It’s like, how did that happen? Cuz I’m just saying this because
stage four, I think it was stage four of the men’s tour to France, Pogy went down and the whole
Pelaton slowed up for him. They all sat up like, “Oh, whoa. who last year’s winner who was not in
the yellow jersey. We got to pump the brakes and wait for him. Whereas Dami goes down wearing the
yellow jersey leading the tour to France fems and she just got left. I think there was one rider in
the end uh that helped her. Her team car was there too. So it wasn’t like her team car was stuck 2
miles behind and they didn’t know what was going on. They parked right beside her. She still has
those bibs that have the huge rip in the side. I saw a video about that and I think she that’s
really in her mind. She’s out for revenge for that. I think uh just my guess Demi and SD works
relationship is probably nil as in when she sees them or when she sees that DS whoever it may have
been whoever made those decisions it’s probably just yeah that’s it. Nothing else happens. 40
second lead here now guys. 40 second lead. It’s we’re going to jump back into bike terror right
away. Also, Lege Baston lege. This year was won by Lege Baston Lege guys. Leoan, which means the old
lady. Uh first raced in 1892. Uh this year was won by Kim Lort. I did know that. Uh Baston Lege for
the women, not Leaz. Baston. Yeah, that race been around since 1892. Uh brutal race, super tough.
Let me get back here. Think I got to give some love hearts out here for uh Dreams information.
Then we’re talking about Amstel Gold Race. Yeah, so many good races. Okay. Uh just let me back up,
guys. Um wow, it’s busy, busy, busy, busy, busy. Okay. Yeah, Don says, “If you were lurking at
least, hit the like button on the stream.” Yeah, please do that, guys. Please like so other
people can see it. If you don’t want to chat, that’s cool, too. Uh, yeah, Kim saying here they
still do the paper down the jersey. It’s still, it happens all the time. And I think Fred was
talking about that. It’s just something that’s easy to do at the time. You can imagine they’re
soaked to the bone. They’re in the valleys at 25 degrees CCelsius like we’re seeing right
now. Actually, if I’m smart and I remember, maybe we’ll see the temperature drop going up
to the Calibil. It won’t be that much. But at the Tour to France high alpine stuff, it
was under 10 degrees at the top. They’re soaked from the climb. Then they got a bomb
downhill for 20 minutes. They would just be freezing at the bottom. Uh Dream saying
the big mountain right there will only be attacked by FDJ if they gain a distance to
Jagante who rides for Sudal AG insurance. How does the fitness levels compare between the
men and the women’s body fat percentage? By the way, I saw London everywhere. He said, “Yonice
look like a prisoner of war. He’s so skinny.” Yeah, dude. They’re getting skinnier and skinnier.
The ladies are very lean as well. Very, very lean. Obviously, there’s going to be different power
numbers. Uh, absolute power numbers. You know, you got to talk power as in how much watts you put
out. Overall watts. I always call it an absolute number. big sprinters can put out 2,000 watts
for a few seconds. So, there’s sprint there’s absolute watts numbers. There’s also watts per
kilo numbers. So, if you can maintain a good power and you weigh nothing, your watts per kilo
are high. Uh for climbs, you want high watts per kilo. For a small rider, it’s easier for them to
maintain high watts per kilo than a big rider. Now, and something that’s hard for people to get
around, and guys, I’ve read all about this. It took me a long time to figure it out, too. It’s a
40-second gap still to those two riders up front. Let’s confirm it’s two riders. It is two riders.
I think we’re going to jump into bike ter right away. If you’re a small rider, let’s say you weigh
120 lbs and I weigh 200 lb cuz I do. Uh, and we ride at the same watts per kilo. If you’re riding
three watts per kilo and I’m riding 3 watts per kilo, we will do this the climb at the exact same
speed. It’s the same power compared to the weight. uh ratio. I think a small it’s just easier for
the smaller rider to develop a higher watts per kilo. So if you weigh 60 kg, you’re doing 3 watts
per kilo. That’s 180 watts. 3 * 60. For me, it’s going to be more like close to 300 watts. So if I
want to do 6 watts a kilo, I’m going to be putting like 550 600 watts. That’s that’s way it’s just
harder for a larger climber to do that. larger clump larger riders on the flats though will pull
away from a light rider. So that’s why the draft is so important on the flats. If you’re riding
three watts per kilo on the flats and you’re a lightweight pesky climber, as I call them, and
I’m right beside you and and you’re not drafting, I will and I’m riding three watts per kilo, I will
pull away from you every time. It’s all got to do with your frontal area. So my power number is say
270 watts and yours is 180. Your frontal area kind of like your coefficient of drag. It’s math time
guys. Uh physics times it doesn’t scale relatively or I guess compared to the power you’re almost as
big as I am uh getting hit by the wind. That’s why they draft. Okay, enough of that. Enough of that.
the best way I can describe it without being a mathematician or a physicist. Although I did take
it. Yes, I can see them on screen, guys. I can see them on screen right now. It’s just popping
in quickly there. Here we go. 40 seconds. It’s 40 seconds, but it’s actually a lot closer than
you would think. It’s 40 seconds of climbing. So, they’re really not that far up the road. Here’s
the main GC Pelaton. And if we just bounce up the road, it’s going to pop up on the hill on the
right hand side. Let’s go with the least shabby here. She’s desperate to get these points. I know
right now if I look over my right shoulder that way, the Pelaton’s down in that valley down there
uh somewhere behind us uh in this area because I saw that these two riders going up the hill here.
Uh you can take a look at the map on the bottom. I bet you when we jump back, I’m going to put
it right in the middle of the screen. The map right at this corner here, this hard right. I bet
you if we jump back there, we’ll find the Pelaton right now. There they are. Wow, I was lucky there,
guys. That was not skillful. That was pure luck. They just took that corner. I’m sitting on Lina
Webb is here right now. She’s going to try to hang on in these climbs. She’ll hang on with these
ones. She’s going to get dropped really bad on the uh category 1 climb coming up. So, it’s all going
off, guys. Today is part two of the tour to France Feex Swift. And by part two, I mean it’s the
second phase of the race. This is where it all changes. This is a GC day right here. Forget about
sprinting. Uh, it’s for the GC contenders. So, we’re going to bounce back to at least shabby
again. I don’t think they’re out. There may be one. They’re a couple of cur curves ahead.
I mean, it is 500 meters. I want to make sure you’re actually seeing this. You are seeing this.
The Metallica jersey looks fantastic. Thank you, Joey Jojo. It looks like we might have a few
riders that have popped up there, too. Uh, it’s saying we’ve got more riders there. Let’s
take a look at this. Uh, it’s now saying we have five riders here, guys. I need to confirm
this. So, there’s been riders bridging up that we weren’t getting on data from the tour to
France. Yes. Shab, Paladin, Cassian, Crack, Brody, Chapman again, and Leanne Liippard here. Okay,
guys. It’s going off. It is going off. This is going to be such an interesting day. I got to let
this reset. That’s my fault. When I go away and I take a look at the other stuff. Okay, what’s going
on here? This pel this group’s getting really big at the front now. And the Pelaton’s 500 meters
back. The green jersey and yellow jersey are 500 meters back right now. We have a huge group out
front right now. Uh it says it’s 12. It could be bigger than that. Could be bigger than that,
folks. Let’s see if we can see the Pelaton back there. Bounce to the Pelaton. Uh right here. I got
to open this up. Let’s go on Pauline here. Yeah, it’s a long drag up here. I think that group
just went around the bend up here to the left. It’s just going to slightly curve to the left
here. So, take a look at your map again. I think they’re just past this bend here in the middle
of the screen. Bends to the left. Uh I’ll jump on those guys and let’s go. Oh, Maryanne’s up
here. So, actually, they’re not there yet. They are not there yet. So, I’m just confusing the
bends in the road, guys. Let me have a sip of coffee. Maybe I’ll wake up a bit more, talk to
uh a few more people here. Uh yeah, Don says, “If you’re lurking, at least hit the like button.”
Thanks, dude. Really appreciate that. Dream, that big mountain right there will only be
Okay, so we did that. That’s the category one. Uh yeah, and back to Fred to his comments, the
fitness levels. Fitness levels are probably the same, like V2s, stuff like that. I mean, obviously
slight physical differences. What I really enjoy about it is that it’s the same clims, it’s the
same roads. So, it’s different, but the same at the exact same time. Okay. I’m just seeing some
data issues popping in here now with the Pelaton. So, I’ll I’m going to bounce away to Lean Liippard
here. Yeah, this is perfect. When they got out of the trees, it’s wide open for a while. So, we
might be able to see them coming around that bend up to the top there. You can see that in the
map down below, guys, on the right hand side. I’m going to zoom in on that map. You can see we’re in
the open now. Open fields here. And what I’m going to do, too, is let’s just bounce back here for a
second. We are getting close to that point. I’m just ready to have some more coffee here. Let’s go
back to the sprint point here. So, Shabby did get it uh in the polka dot jersey. Then it was Georgie
got it. Liippard. Okay, so there must have been more riders in that group. Actually, we don’t know
the timing. So, there would have been two riders up front. We’ll get that all figured out. Category
3 climb 1.7 km at 7%. 7% is where you’re really going to start feeling it. I’m assuming Shabi is
going to go pretty hard for this. Shabby’s getting everything right now. Uh yeah, take a look at this
here. Shabby got first. I don’t see Viva’s name in the top 15 here. So Vivas scored no points here.
There was a breakaway I think that was forming that wasn’t being shown very well from the Turf
France data feed there. And again, no one gets to see this anywhere outside of maybe the people that
are filming it and they’ve decided not to turn it on yet because this is occurring right now. There
are cameras out there. They just don’t turn the feed on for at least an hour in. I don’t know why.
So, we’ll go back to the live tracking here. Yeah, this is a great day. Look at the roads here. This
is fantastic. I love it. Let’s just stick there for a second. Uh I’m letting this refresh in
the background over here. Get back to the chat. And uh those sports director uh drama reminds me
of NBA coaches lobbing to the rest to call fouls. Yeah, I think it was uh what’s his name? Uh Yos
Van Mden. He just told them off. He’s like, “She doesn’t get to be a protected rider just because
she’s a GC rider. Uh we’re all here to win.” Yeah, they’re all here to win. Uh yes, 5×5. You got
it, dude. We are in the pipe. 5×5. Let me know the movie. Uh yeah, Francine, I missed the sign
stealing. Yeah, dude. It was such a cool story. Uh, if I can find it somewhere, I’ll put it online
here for you. Uh, so it was a I love out something like that. He snatches it from her, tries to tear
it in half, stuffs it down his jersey. Afterwards, he probably looks at and goes, “Oh.” Somehow they
find the lady afterwards and all three of them take a picture together. I think it’s such a cool
story and that’s what I love about cycling. Uh, Dream, in fairness to VBZ, it is the sport
director’s fault. That’s what I’m thinking. dream. Uh, Vivas is just racing by, but it was and Vivas
did cause the crash from what I saw. The DS said, “Hey guys, we got our yellow jersey down on
the ground.” I don’t know what the DS’s were thinking. Vibbas was instructed before the
stage to ignore those and go for the stage. 100% director’s fault. Just my opinion. I agree
with you. Vivis, it’s the heat of the moment, too. The riders are the ones that are out there
racing for their lives essentially trying to stay upright. Uh probably a lot more going through
their brains. It’s the job of the DS, the coach, to figure things out and say, “Guys, we need to
fix this.” I would have sent everyone else back to help her, pace her back to the front. She lost
She lost the tour to France that day. That was what caused her to lose the tour to France that
uh so yeah, she found her new team real quick. Yeah, if the director said before the stage we
stop and help Demi at all cost, Vibbas would have stopped. I And you know what? Uh I really like
Loren Vibbas. So again, it’s heat of the moment, but the director, Sportif, the coach in the car,
the manager of the team, whatever you want to call them, they need to make the calls like, “Okay,
ladies, we need to rally here and get Demi back up there.” I think that there just totally ruined her
relationship with that team and that DS whoever it was at the time. I remember we being delivered
to the finish of a big race. Perfect work by our team. She sat up early to celebrate and got nipped
at the line after that. I was antias. Okay. Uh Robert Voss was the one who steal that win. Okay.
I didn’t know that. Oh, Amile Gold. Okay, that’s another great race. Kimmelell, why do you think
Demi left? Okay, so Oh, I’m way behind, guys. Yeah, I’m kind of going back in time here, so I’m
going to catch up. We got Mike here in the mix. Let’s go, Kim. Mike, where you from? How did you
find the channel, guys? Please like if you can. We got Anthony back again. Anony’s been here uh
probably 3 4 days straight. Congratulations to the first African woman to earn yellow in the tour
to France. I did know that when they said that yesterday, first African to ever win a stage.
I remember Daryl Imp. He’s one of my favorite cyclists of all time. uh from South Africa and
basically I think he spent a lot of his career riding for Australian teams and I remember winning
a stage and I’m like and I’m okay with that if you want to say it’s yeah that’s fine too but I
remember oh Daryl Impy won it from South Africa uh okay Nagger my whoosh hopefully in February
Canadian national esport in February yeah Anna I hope hopefully I’m back doing that again and I got
a weird email yesterday from someone that I know. I think they do a lot of media stuff. Uh, how do
I call it? Like professionally for my whoosh. And it was like, “Hi, Colin. This is what’s going
on this year. If you would like to cover it, please reach out to me. Uh, I can arrange meetings
and interviews with the team.” And I’m like, “What does that mean? I don’t even know
what that means.” So, I responded and said, “Yeah, dude. I want to cover it, but
I don’t know if I’m allowed to.” Uh, okay. Joe’s here as well. Don saying when
Pogy fell, Ben Neely had him wait up. Pogy slippers front as well. Yonas
wasn’t even the yellow jersey. Yeah, guys, it just kind of happens on the fly, too. Uh, Dream Chalk. Yeah, Robert saying Dream has
like tons of information. Totally. Like that’s my go-to information source right now. Uh,
okay. Niagara here. This is Ayanna saying, “I’m training for the UCI Worlds individual time
in Australia in October. Age category.” So Anna, are you going to that? So in Australia in October,
my whoosh in February. Okay. Sorry guys, there’s a lot for me to read here and I got things going in
so I I lose track. I shared your channel on Straa that I was watching your channel. Also, shout
out to Bike Terra yesterday. Yeah, awesome dude. Awesome stuff. Let’s let B terror know we love
what they’re doing. Okay, let’s actually pop back into Ber some cool I saw this turn in the race
profile yesterday as I was kind of sneaking around trying to find all the clims. I remember this lake
here and uh right here this little town. I’m going to jump back to Bite Terra right now. I think uh
the Pelton’s chasing them really hard right now. They’re not that far. So yeah, I’m seeing it right
now, guys. Kind of an open area. Let’s get into this. So good. The way this data is shown to me,
again, if you see weird speed ups and slowdowns, that’s just the data coming from the tour to
France. It’s delayed as is. And so when they mess up and the data comes even slower, take
a look at this hard right corner here. Uh, and let’s have a little peek up there. I can
see the leaders sneaking away into the forest up there. Is that them there? I think they’ve just
disappeared into that forest around that bend. I’m going to take a look back. Wow, guys. Uh, it’s
showing 12 riders. Could be even more than that. Shab Williams, Leapert, Georgie, Silky, Smolders.
Uh, I was watching her at the Tour Down Under. Uh, definitely a client. Sariah Paladin maybe it’s
Paladin Leticia Patronostster Yara Castellin Uso oustza Amberrack Morane Cost and Loretta Hansen.
There may be more than that guys. Let’s just uh wait and see how this develops. What I will
do is I’m going to N I don’t want to jump away. I want to keep you guys right here. Let’s
jump up to Silky Smolders for Liv Alula JCO. Look back a bit. So, they’re kind of racing. Ooh,
there’s the lake. This is what I want to show you guys. Here’s the lake popping in right here. Oh,
it looks like we got a dam here. We got a damn here. Oh, sorry, guys. That’s my fault. Uh, I got
stuck in the side of that mountain. So, how is it going to show that? Yeah, a little bit of earth
and works dam there, I think. I think that’s what I was seeing. Descending now. Uh, yeah, they’re
bombing downhill. 3% grade going downhill. Again, data points. It might show a little bit high
at times just the way the data comes in. Awesome stuff here, guys. Awesome
stuff. Let’s hang with them here. Now, it’s saying that we currently have It’s
saying it’s 1.1 km. That’s probably just that descent down. That’s going to all
come back. Let’s just watch that here. Uh I’m going to leave you guys there. Uh Anna’s
training with uh St. Catherine’s Niagara Club. Uh, sorry, Colin. I am one of those pesky little
climbers. My club captain was larger at 225 lb 6’2. He didn’t win climbing. Yeah, that’s okay.
225 6’2. I’m more in that 200lb range. I better weigh myself lately and adjust my uh my kilos
properly. Uh, let’s see. When are we live, guys? We’re going to have a live video here
soon. That’s where I like to see all the cool stuff out on stage. Oh, they’re saying
it’s live now. They’re saying it’s live now. Uh, give me one second here. I think I’m going
to invest uh due to the generous donations and actually R. Stanley again yesterday contributed
to the channel, guys. Generous donations to the channel. I think my next move is I want
to upgrade. My mic is good, guys. My mic is good. Joey Jojo bought me this mic and I’m
like, awesome. You bought basically one of the best rated mics out there. Uh, like bang for your
buck. Yeah, you could probably go spend two grand on a mic and it’s going to sound 0.01% better.
It’s kind of like buying an aluminum bike for a thousand bucks or a carbon fiber bike for 12,000.
It’s not going to be that much better. It’s going to be better, but not that much. I’m seeing one
lone rider back there. Who is that? This rider right here. I’m seeing them in the distance.
Riders are falling off now as we climb. Guys, you they’re showing up on screen here. Who is this
rider? Yep, we’ve lost two riders at the back. uh Yolena Eric and Laura Molinar here, Vulker
Vessels and Moistar. So, they’ve already been shed as we climb. We’re at a 4% gradient now. This
is our second categorized climb of the day. Want to zoom out here a little bit. Then it’s saying
the Pelaton’s coming up quick. They’re only 230 m behind these two. Uh and the other group is just
up the road. Let’s jump to the Peladon real Pelon real quick here. GC Pelaton. Uh, green jersey
still there. Oops, that’s me just being clunky. Let’s actually hang with Lena for a second here.
See how she’s going to do. Those other riders are I’m looking for them. Now, guys, I do this all
the time in my videos, too. Anytime I’m racing, I’m looking for other riders. Uh, that’s the whole
point of doing this. instead of just saying, “Oh, one group’s 30 seconds up the road and there’s
a 3minute gap.” And I think most people, like if I was to tell my mom that, she’d be
like, “What does that mean?” I don’t even know what that means. But when you get to see
it this way, you can really appreciate it. So, thank you, Vera. So, now we got five
riders, six riders who’ve fallen out. Yep. Six riders here. Leanne Leapert is in the
front group. So, here’s the very front group. It’s a big group too, guys. Big group. Still saying 12
riders. Probably more than that as we climb. Silky smolders there. I do need to jump back here,
guys, for a second. I need to see this. Yeah, we’re coming to it now. And hopefully I haven’t
messed that up too bad. Okay, it holds up. I So, what I’m doing is I’m jumping into a different
window to look at France race feed. Everything’s as it says it is here. Uh if I go away for too
long, it resets bike terra. Then you get that start thing again. Obviously, if you were riding
bike terra at home, which is very easy to do, guys, uh you wouldn’t have that happen. So, you
can see a group right behind us. These are the riders that have just been tailed off the back
end here. Looks like there’s about five or six of them. Six riders should be back there. Lily
Williams, Emma Norsgard, Burg, Linda Zenetti, who went out early today, Laura Molinar, Miesa
Bridavald, and Yelena Eric. Let’s just hang out with Lena Yolena Eric here. Six riders in
this group. They can just see the front group around every bend. If there’s a straightaway,
they’re just going to catch glimpse of them now and then they’re going to disappear again.
Awesome. Uh I think the Pelton’s really Well, it says it’s 448 meters back from these
riders here. 6% gradient at this point. So, we’ll hang out here for a little
bit. Actually, let’s jump back to the front group. Brody Chapen up there again.
Is Shab still here? She should be. Yeah, she’s still here. I think we’re getting close to
the top here, guys. Just from what I’m seeing, you know, the way I’m looking at it, I think the
finish for the climb is just up here somewhere off the very top left hand side of the screen. What
I can do is probably just escape for a second. Have a look. Yeah, we’re going to be swinging
around to the left and the finish line is going to be up there. So, I don’t know exactly
where it is, but just the way the climb is, uh, it’s going to be like a pass or it’s going to
be the high point between two hills or two or the valley point, you know, it’s down below the coal
itself. So, we’re going to swing around. We’re going to be going around to the left up here, and
that will be the top of this climb. I’ll jump out. Yeah, I can already see a building popping in over
there. So, we’re probably going to be over there somewhere. Okay, that’s actually way off. Yeah,
good drawing right now, guys. Really good drawing here. There’s buildings way out in the distance.
You can see the fields way out there. Buildings way behind us. All those buildings will be
real. Uh, so yeah, we still got this group here. Still says six riders chasing four down to four.
Two riders have fallen out of that group. itself. Here’s Laura Molinar. So, we got these two riders
chasing a group of four up ahead. Here’s Miesa. Misha Britalt front group that says it’s at least
still 12 riders. Let’s go to Amber Crack here. Uh probably the KM’s at this town, I would imagine.
So, we got a little town popping up here. Let’s jump in. Oh, this is Azerell’s itself. However you
say that, Augurals. This is the co augur rolls. So, it’s probably a point right about here. Again,
still waiting on feed coming through. If I could see it, I’d tell you exactly who was going
here through you for you. I’ll jump out again. Yes. So, Dawn’s a pesky lightweight climber, guys.
I dropped that in a video one day over on Ruvie, and I’ve been using that for about three
years now. Pesky lightweight climber. Uh Mike’s cheering on Kim here.
Okay, I’m going to catch up, guys. Oo, the qualifier was 125 kilometers. Drew
Schaefer’s back. Hey, Drew. Good morning, dude. Good to see you. With 2,300 meters of
climbing, Anna, which qualifier was that? Uh, Jay Taylor Colin, thank you for being here.
And who’s in the lead group again? Dude, right now Shabby’s in that front group.
Uh, we got four climbs today. Actually, we’ve got like a bunch of climbs today. Four
categorized. There’s a group of at least 12 riders up front. A lot of climbers going for uh queen of
the mountain points. We got groups splintering off the back back right now. There was six. Now that’s
been broken up into uh a group of four. Another group of two. The Pelaton is 800 meters back
from the front right now. I’ve got bike terror running trying to show everyone the groups. Uh I’m
just going to catch up with the chat here quick. Uh Anna saying she qualified. Yeah, that’s a
tough qualifier, too. 125k with 25 300 meters of climbing. Uh Dream saying Robert, it used
to be that Gigante was working for uh Yeah, I can’t say what’s her name. Uh Justine maybe. I
can’t say her last name. Gary earlier this year on Australia and the tour of Norway. Drew
Schaver, good uh blue ber view by the way, showing the hills in the background.
Yeah, it’s super lumpy through here, guys. We’re in that whole volcanic area where
everything like the pua dom. There’s a whole bunch of extinct volcanic hills here. So, they
probably would have been like cinder cones in the past where if you know what a cinder cone
is, uh you sometimes you pick up I don’t know what to describe it as. What’s the name of
the actual rock? I’m trying to think here. You’ll pick it up and it like it feels like it’s
as light as like uh balsa wood. This rock is black. It’s full of bubbles. Uh it’s explosive and
it piles up. Doesn’t really become It is a rock, but it’s got so much paracity in it in the air
pockets that it’s super light. Uh very sharp, black in color, really pretty to look at. Almost
almost has like an iridescent sheen to it. I think that’s what these originally were and then
they’ve been covered up with soil and stuff. uh trees have grown on them. So, there’s
a bunch of extinct volcanoes around here and uh guys, I’m missing a lot of the chat. Okay. Yeah, we’re talking
about creatine powders here. Uh Kim Lort, very easy to root for. Gives 123
people watching now. Guys, I knew when the hill stages came this would happen. These guys are over
the top, guys. I’m going to jump out for a second. Uh, they’re going to have a little bit of a
reprieve in the middle here. And we start climbing again. So, let me just jump back here. I need to
get some data points. Uh, the groups are so big, it’s hard for me to see what’s going on there. And
let’s see if the tour to France even knows what’s going on. So, here’s the race, guys. As is over.
They’re all over the group of that the category three with group four back here. 17 riders that
have been shed out the back. These are names we saw yesterday. Allison Jackson, Dystra is out
the back. She was on the attack yesterday. Uh other names I’m getting used to seeing. Toway we
saw yesterday for RKA. Here’s our yellow jersey. Lorena Vivas is still here. 100 riders in this
group. Kim Lort’s back there with the yellow jersey. Group two on the road. Williams, Norsgard
Berg, Zenedi, and Bridald. Group one on the road. It is 12 riders exactly. So we’re seeing that on
bike terror perfectly. They only state display 12. Uh Shab, Leapert, Georgie, Silky Smolders,
Paladin, Castellian, Loza, Laza, Crack, Coster, I think it’s Morang Cost, she was the first rider
up the road and they’ve all joined her. Chapman, Geritz, and Hansen. That’s the situation, guys.
Let’s see if we got some points going through there. Oo, Brody Chapman took them. She got
points yesterday. I think Brody Chapman’s got seven points overall right now after getting those
three. Shabby got two. Silk got one. I would have loved to have seen that cuz Elise here will be
fighting for every point right now. Every point. The first category three Shabby got at least
got them. Silky Smolders got two. Brody Chapman got one. So, here’s our three that are going to be
fighting for that jersey. Now, that’s probably all going to change on this next climb. We just have
a little bit. I’m going to zoom in for a bit here, guys. You can kind of see it’s kind of flatter
in the middle, but it is lumpy. It It starts climbing here. There’s a little bit of flat,
and then it starts It’s going to be like a one to 2% gradient for a long ways, and then we’re
going to kick. So, let me just jump right back out there and see what kind of feed we’re getting
here. On the second climb of the day, the leading group is down to 12 members. Elise Shab is still
there and already has three points today. So, she’s going to be fighting for every point.
Okay, the breakaway guys. We’ve seen all that. We’ve seen all that with Bike Terra. We’ve got it
figured out. 12 riders up front. We got a 35second gap back to the four. There were two riders shed
out of that group. I think they’ve been absorbed by the Pelon now. Pelon should have 100 riders
still. And then we got 17 riders out the back. So, I’ve got everything figured out. Back to the uh
the good stuff here. Back to the good stuff. Uh, we’re going to go to the leading group, hang out
with Leanne Liippard here, and I’ll get you in there right now, guys. And then I’m going to try
to get caught up with chat again, guys. 117 in the mix right now. Again, we are in the pipe. 5×5. Let
me get in there so it doesn’t desync. Please like if you can, guys. Just quickly hit the thumbs
up button. It does so much for the channel. Uh, Kim Court, very easy to root for. gives great
interviews. She and Sarah Gigante a potent one-two combo. Yeah. Uh AG Insurance Sud that that is a
you know a double double right there. And just Yes, it is Justine. So Justine’s there as well.
Jay Taylor, what is everyone’s favorite recovery meal today? I had peaches, Cheerios with soy
milk, blueberries. Dude, you’re killing it. I am the world’s worst for recoveries. So, like after
the paragoods yesterday, which is a hard climb, uh let’s say it’s 5 miles and 2,000 ft of
climbing. Did that. We didn’t go super hard, though. Like, I didn’t bury myself. In fact,
the first 3 kilometers, the first two miles, I just kind of I was waiting for Reuben to
catch up with me on the road. Went upstairs, opened up a bag of dill pickle potato chips, ate
half a bag of dill pick dill pickle chips. Um, probably followed up with uh probably a Coke
and uh might have been diet. So healthy, fully healthy. I had diet coke, guys. So like
I’m on the road to recovery. And then later on I would have thought, “Oh man, I got to have
a coconut water.” So then that was my little bit of goodness. I’m a terrible eater. I
when I’m done my bike rides, long rides, I’m walking around here like a zombie. Uh I need
electrolytes so bad. Trying to see what’s on the side of the road there. That’s fascinating. Not
sure what that is on the road there. Oh, it’s just the way the river curves under. There’s a big uh o
big meander in the river here. I was going to call it an oxbow lake, but it’s still connected. So,
it is technically not an oxbow lake. And if you’re wondering what that is, when you watch a river
system in a big valley and you see these kind of like crescentshaped little puddles, those are
oxbow lakes. That’s where the river used to be. So, it’s going to meander around, meander
around, and eventually the river says, “Nah, I don’t want to meander anymore. I want to go
straight through.” So, then then that little curve of the river gets isolated and then it
becomes called an oxbow lake. Kind of little surficial geography stuff for you there. Favorite
recovery meal? Grilled or rotisserie? Chicken, rice, and vegetables. Oh, Don, that sounds good.
You’re giving me uh dinner ideas for tonight, guys. as okay the feed’s finally coming through
here finally coming through uh we still got our 12 out front here you know it’s saying 0% gradient
here we will be climbing it’s imminent guys yeah I think my quick guess is we’re going to see the GC
riders back with these riders probably a quarter of the way up this climb that’s my guess once they
start putting the pressure on for a lot of the GC riders this is a day that you can vault right
up into first place if you put it in some good moves. Teams have probably highlighted this stage
as a stage they need to get after first mountain stage. I think tomorrow we’re technically a
hilly stage. That’ll be stage seven. Uh stage eight and nine all mountains. Uh HC climbs,
guys. And we do the call to maline. One of the toughest climbs out there. I’m calling that an
HC plus climb. It’s not an HC. It’s beyond that. Okay, just bouncing through here. Uh, okay. So, we got 12 in the group.
Man, how far behind am I? Okay, 737. Uh, but JTL is here. Lead group, dude. 12 riders right
now being chased by a group of four. Pelaton’s 1.25 km back. So, like 800. It’s only like 800
meters back or something. Is that right? Sorry, that doesn’t make sense. I wanted to say 0.8
miles. It came out as 800 meters. They’re 1.25 km back. That’s,250 m obviously. God,
I hate to sound dumb like that. Uh, so we’re talking about protein powders, guys. I
think I’ve taken protein powders just a few times uh as just to basically have a milkshake. That’s
all the reason I take it for. Some of the protein powders have really good taste to them. Joey
Jojo likes to buy the stuff all the time. She doesn’t use it herself. She just likes to buy it.
Thinks she’s going to use it. And then I think, well, I I want a milkshake. So, I’m going to
go eat this stuff and use it up. Otherwise, I would never buy it. Uh, yep. Drew here.
Howdy, kids. Jay’s asking what he’s missing about uh creatine. Oh, wow. I bounced way back
too far. Oh, look at this here. Dream saying, “Oh, yeah. Leert has her own YouTube and she
posts regular. Excellent watch.” Okay, awesome dream. I’m going to watch that later today. Ether
even better than most teams YouTube channel. Okay, that’s good to know. Uh possible to move your
pick window to the other side. Yeah, good idea, dude. Thank you, Doug. Uh guys, I said that if you
ever see something that is bugging you or you know it’s going to look better, just tell me. Easy to
do. Boom. Fixed. Thank you, Doug. You’re the man. Uh guys, I just set these up in advance and then
I kind of forget about it as I’m doing this. So, let’s just jump back here. Looking good,
guys. Uh you can see here 8 9% gradient coming through here. Let me just try to show
you the gradient here. So, they are climbing all the way right now. Group of 12 riders still.
I think it’s still saying 12 12 riders here. So, I will be checking out Lean Leapert’s YouTube
channel later today. Uh, we’ve still got our four a group of four Lily Williams here chasing behind
them. 345 meters back. I don’t think we’re going to see that group right now. Then it looks like
the Pelaton’s coming. 564 meters back. So, let’s see where they are. Lina Vibbas, they say she’s
still there. She’s still hanging in there, guys. So, GC movers, time to go. It’s supposed to be a
hard day. Yes, we know it’s a hard day, guys. Uh, okay. So, Doug, yeah, thanks for Guys,
I said that if you see something weird, I think it was yesterday. I think Dawn told me I
didn’t even have my camera on. Basically, I have to reset it every day. Every day I got to reset
it. Very rare that it’s it stays on. Uh, so Doug, thanks for doing that. Or if there’s something you
guys want to see, if you don’t want to see this, let me know. In fact, what I will do as we’re
climbing here, I’m going to jump back here. We will turn that back on quickly just to get a feel
as for time gaps here. So, the front group of 12, you can see where they are right now, guys.
They’re just starting the climb right now. The Pelaton is 58 seconds back. That can be
gone in no time. Uh the the group of four, group Williams here, they’re almost done. There’s
four of them there. Bradenva, Zenetti, Norsgard, and L. Williams here. Lily Williams from the
United States, guys. Human powered health, one of the US teams. So, good to see them here.
Speaking of which, whilst we’re doing that, let’s look at the humanpowered health team.
Uh, I like to look at the teams. Seventh in the general ranking. That’s pretty
good. Casper, Edwards, Dejong, Malcotti, Miterval, Raj Makers, and Williams. So Williams
here is the one that’s in that group that’s just getting devoured right now. They’ve been
caught now. And we do have 17 riders out back. Who’s back here that is suffering today?
Allison Jackson, Anderson, Dystra, Mangan, seeing names that I re and TGU. This rider was
in the move yesterday here. Arca B&B hotels. So probably feeling the effects of yesterday in her
legs right now. Just starting the climb, guys. One minute gap. See if we got any news. You know,
this is where Okay, right here. We just saw one. Burlova withdraws. Christina Berlova for Saratazit
has just withdrawn from the tour to France. She saw that hill and thinking, I’m already hurting.
Let’s pull the pin. Uh 45.7 km into the stage. Okay, that was when we were descending down.
Awesome. Here comes the climb, guys. Uh I know I would prefer to be in Vera. I don’t know about you
guys. Mike Terra for the win. How about everyone post that? Doing a little refresh here. Leading
group is almost a kilometer ahead. It’s starting to drop now. So, let’s find a rider here who we’ve
never looked at before. Well, we’ve seen Brody. Let’s look at Fempi. Fempi Gitzer. So, we’re on
Femi here. I’m going to turn it on now, guys, so you can see it. And there we go. So, we’re
going to stick with these riders on the climb tough climb. Definitely. Uh yeah, coffee chitchat here. Okay, we got video
feed now. We have video feed now. Uh looking at it here. Thank you so much, Flow Bikes. And
thank you uh organizers of the tour to France for not showing the whole first hour in a bit
because we want to have we’re here to promote women’s cycling and we don’t want to show it.
Thank you. This is really dumb to me. Everyone else has said that too. Okay, this is the head
of the course here. Wow. Love all the stone walls I’m seeing here guys. I love them all.
Polka dot jersey putting her arm up right now. They are climbing at 29ks an hour. It is a
climb. I got to imagine here at this point it’s backed off a little bit in the steepness of
it. Here’s Silky Smolders. 3% gradient. That makes sense to me. Again, this is slightly delayed.
Uh 3% gradient. 2% gradient. They’re going to be able to hold a pretty decent speed. So,
she’s gone back to her car. FDJ Suez here. What does she want? She’s going back for a bottle.
Probably got a gel stuck to that bottle, too. Power up number 12, Elise Shabi for FDJ, guys.
I’m still learning the jerseys, too. Like, oh, so, okay, that’s the FDJ DS there.
Actually, the DS will be in the right seat. Oh, maybe Dream’s here. Dream. Dream, can you
answer me this? Who was the the team car that was basically riding in the Pelaton? I think
it might have been last year, the year before. like it was a team car that decided, “Hey
man, we’re going to drive right through the Pelaton.” And so the 150 riders were completely
surrounding the car. The car was trying to drive off the road onto the shoulder. It was like a a
gravel shoulder and there was people there like fans. I would love to know who that person was.
Uh and give them a little bit of a you know, maybe a little bit of a slap in the ear for that
maneuver. Um, friends Louis Gino Aguilar. Go Lina Vibes. I think go Larina Bebis will be going out
the back here soon, dude. Uh, this climb. Let’s hope she hangs on. Let’s hope she hangs on. Just
not her stage today. Uh, Lena’s doing really well. She is in the GC Pelon, one kilometer behind right
now off the uh, the breakaway group. Okay. Uh, guys, lots of messages. Love it. 138 watching now,
guys. Let’s get over 150. We haven’t been over 150 yet. Uh, wow, guys. So many messages here. Whoa.
I just saw a new dude here. I think his name is Johnny. Johnny. Where’s Johnny gone? Uh, Johnny
Tuck. Hi, everyone. Uh, come on Kim. All Maitius behind you. Johnny. Great dude. Are you from
Maitius? Tiny country in the Indian Ocean off the southeast coast of Africa. Drew’s here. Uh,
village on top of this climb. That’s radical. Bego is still first overall in the white
jersey. I don’t know where she is right now. I’m going to have to figure that
out. Let me get caught in the chat, guys, so I can get caught up. Drew saying cinder
cones all around me from the Laganita volcanic period to 28 million years ago. Drew, where are
you located? I’m gonna say if you’re in Drew, I’m assuming you’re American. I don’t even
know if I know that. Uh, tons of cinder cones in Idaho. So, just wild guess. I have no idea of
the lag lagarita. Well, when you say lagarita, I got to think you’re not in the states then. Uh,
yeah, just let me know. We’ll figure that all out. Oh, Robert saying, “Love love the translation
from Flemisher.” Yeah, some of the translations are weird. Pauline Lbel and funny. Okay,
that’s from Drew. Uh, let me catch up, guys. Uh, 125 watching now. Love this zoomed
in view. Okay, so who’s saying that? Uh, yeah, there will be. Okay, so that’s Drew again.
So many interesting stars to root for at the fems more than the the man things. Yeah, I
think it’s been more exciting at the fems, to be honest, guys. and the fact that they’re
not current. Okay, so I’ve got video footage now of Lena getting punted out the back, guys.
She’s gone. This is not her thing, you know? Uh there’s different types of cyclists. There’s
some You know what kills me the most? Why is there not a time trial? That’s my favorite thing.
Uh every tour, you know, if it’s a especially when it’s 90s long, there should be an individual
time trial. Kind of shocked that there’s not. you know, individual time trialists, that’s
their thing. They could level the climbers, absolutely destroy most of them. Uh, it depends
what kind of rider you are. So, it gives them an advantage there. Uh, the climbers have the
advantage on the on the hills obviously. Yeah. So, we’re seeing the abandonment of Christina Burlova
for setit riders going out the back here all the time. Pelaton’s looking pretty big, but they’re
just stringing out the back now, guys. Uh, I want to get caught up. Dream saying bagel locked in by
Kofides to 2027. Uh, here’s a question for you, Dream. Is the women’s Kofides team kind of like
the men’s Kofides team? Like just never really there. Just never really fully there. Just
wondering because that’s how I see the men’s team. Uh, oh, okay. Hey, we got Drew here. More on
oxbow. River currents run faster on outside of the bends. Thus, the outer bank of roads and sediments
descending deposit on the inbends. Exactly. Uh so yeah, like around here you’ll find oxbow
everywhere. Uh really cool to see my trivia today. Not very serious, but who is Canada’s next demi?
The future GC maybe 27. Oh, okay. Well, I’ll I’ll have a really dumb answer here. All I can say is
maybe Canada’s next men’s GC contender is Derek G. Uh I think there’s five Canadians at the race.
Uh but I would have no idea who would be the next Demi. Uh I’m really hoping Canada has a new a
next demi because I’m going to follow all of it, guys. I’m going to follow all of it. Uh kind of
started this too late this year. Like I could have done the Valta Feminina. I couldn’t have
done the Giri Donnie because it was at the exact same time as the men’s tour which I don’t know
why they did that. Guys, looks like the groups are splintering again here. Now things are going
off here. I got to start paying attention. It is saying still 12 in this lead group. Let’s take a
look at the teams here. Okay, so there’s Elise. Is this this front group here? I’m just trying
to figure out if the group they’re showing me. They’re saying it is. Yeah, looks like 12 riders
there. Just can’t see Elise right now. Polka dot jersey. Where are you? Sitting about sixth.
Mobile star rider here. Uh, Picnic Post NL live. Uh, Uscadi. Okay, we’ve got
a second Amber Crack here for FDJ. I believe that is okay. I’m just
looking at all them here, guys. Fenigarits here and we’re look back 1.1 kilometers. So
this group up front is pushing pretty hard, guys. They’re pushing up top. Remember at the
top of the climb here, I’m going to jump out for one more second. We’ll bounce back here again.
Let’s look at the sporting stakes again. So we can do that right here. Sporting stakes called BL 10
points at the top. So 10 points at the top, guys. Let’s take a look now at the polka dot jersey.
And you can see now this is as of yesterday. This is not today. But you can see we’ve only
got five points between Shabby and Smolders. Shabby has gotten more points today though. So
stage ranking. This is what’s happened today. Uh no that is not today. That’s yesterday.
This is what’s happened today. Uh, mountain stage Claremont Feron to Ambear. First climb was
Shabby getting three points. Smolders getting two, Brody Chapman getting one. Second climb probably
about the same thing. Oo, it flip-flopped. Uh, Brody gets three, Shabby gets two, Silk gets one,
and we’re working our way to the next climb, guys. So, right now, uh, Shabby will still
be in the lead of the Polka Dot jersey bounce back. Okay, I just lost that
there. Uh, oh yeah, just close that. Okay, that was kind of weird. Shouldn’t have done
that. Get back into this live one here. Okay, here we are, guys. I’ll just put the map on for
a second just so I can catch up in the chat. So, right now we have four groups out here. You
can see Lena Vibes here just dangling behind VZ Gillespie Unkin for Vulkar Vessels. Browse
or Browse I guess I should say. Group four, 10 riders back there. Allison Jackson group here
is the yellow jersey group. White jersey is there as well. I just saw her. Uh well, I don’t see
her name there, but it’s saying she’s there. You can see the white on the corner of the uh
the bubble here. Red jersey group. Polka dot jersey group. I don’t know. Yeah, how about
we to put a polka dot symbol there with that? Uh 12 riders still. I’ll quickly jump back
into the chat here, guys. Let me catch up. Thanks. Perfect. Doug Sanders here. Lug lug. Yeah,
basic geography from me. Drew knows the stuff as well. It looks like uh someone says Cat Ferguson.
Now she’s British. We can see the Mississippi River oxbow by searching web for overlaid maps.
Uh Robert and why not cat in the tour to France. Yeah, I wonder why. Doug saying he’s going to get
nasty. Bike terra. Everyone wants me back on bike terror. There’s they’re supporting bike terra.
Awesome stuff. Guys, I’m just going to catch up here real quick. If I see new names, if I’m
ignoring you, I’m not doing it on purpose. Okay, here Drew is answering. I remember that car on
the Pelaton. I think that was at the top of the mountain. I don’t remember the team though. Maybe.
Yeah, it was ridiculous. And they were trying to get through. They just kept pushing their way
through. They went to the left hand side of the road. The left wheels were off the road like
hanging into the grass and there’s people standing there. Like, dude, you could kill someone. That
was so ridiculous. David Blom here. Good day from Melbourne, Australia. Approaching midnight.
Have loved your coverage over the past few nights, dude. Thanks for being here, David. Awesome to
see you here, dude. Thanks for hanging in there and staying up late. Uh, I’m going to jump
back to Bike Ter right away, guys. I just, this whole thing for me is talking to you dudes.
Uh, getting info, learning about other cyclists, maybe introducing some of you to the world of
inside cycling. Um, cuz that’s what I do. So, I did two Zift races this week. I want to get back
on bike terra stuff here soon. It’s always about finding a good event, too. Uh Michael Sagermanman
here. I agree Colin. Uh a tour to France without an ITT is a miss by the organizers. Yeah, the
these routes are designed every year guys to and it should kind of like blend all the talents the
sprinters. I mean imagine if they didn’t have a sprint stage in in one tour. The sprinters would
go nuts. Or like let’s have a totally flat tour to France. The climbers would be like they would
have no chance. Uh I just read something a few days ago. the longest ever time trial at the tour
to France. But check this out. Uh I don’t remember the year, but it was in yester years, probably
like in the 40s or the 50s. Individual time trial, 135 km. So longer than today’s stage. So if
you’re a good time trialist, you pummel the field. See what’s going on up here now, guys. Uh
do we still have our 12 riders? Still saying 12 riders. I think it’s going to start cracking apart
soon. Yeah, they need an individual time trial. Some people specialize in that. Uh Fred saying,
“Well, yeah, I love a TT, especially having one late like Lamont in 89 mine. Awesome comeback.
Trail by 50 seconds, one by eight.” Yeah, dude. That was so awesome. Uh okay. Del Norte, Colorado.
Yes, in the States. Name of the Caldera 30 miles 51 km. Perfect. is like Garita Caldera. I just
thought when the Spanish name I thought, well, God, is he living in Spain or something? Uh, just
south of Credle. I’m the guy whose driveway is at the Ram. Okay, cool, dude. Dude, I’m going to look
that up later. I love looking at maps. Obviously, I love geology, but I love surficial geology
as well, which, you know, kind of just even geography. Uh, yep. Confidence men and women have
the same status. Okay, Dream. That’s kind of what I thought. like just they’re just not there but
they’ve been around forever. Robert stage winner from the breakaway probably. Yeah, get over
those time bonuses. Oh, we’re having a look at that lake from earlier that I showed you.
Okay, guys. We’re going back to Vera because I know this is bang that back up. I’m reconnected.
Leading group at least shabby man. You want to be first over this one if you’re in the fight for the
QM. So, let’s get that going on. Shaka, let’s go, folks. Let’s go. The climb is on, folks. The
climb is on and earn a 7% gradient here. If you’ve ever done a 7% climb, and I keep saying to
people, wherever you live in the world, at least in North America, you’re out in the mountains.
Ooh, it’s showing Lena Web is back here. Viva is way back here. Looks like it’s showing her
getting back on that big group. 35th overall, 9 minutes down. Haven’t really seen a lot of the
high high-end GC because they’re hiding in this big group that’s chasing the 12 and the breakaway.
So, breakaway going up the hill first. Yeah, if you’re ever driving through the mountains,
California, Colorado, Alberta, British Columbia, anywhere, uh at 7% that’s when you’ll see the sign
steep gradient. That’s generally to warn truckers like, “Hey dudes, check your brakes.” They’ll
have like in the mountains here, they’ll have pull out points for breakers to pull over and
check their brakes. Or at the bottom of them, they’ll have places for truckers to pull over and
chain up so they don’t start losing traction going up the hill and then eventually they’re stuck
on the hill. Guess what? That happened to me one time many, many years ago when I was way north
uh in northern I might have been on the border of British Columbia. Well, I was on the border,
British Columbia, Alberta. I don’t know which side I was on. I was near a place called Chatwind.
And I was driving just a 5-tonon truck. So, a big cargo truck. Really? I don’t know. I don’t
even know why I was driving it. I was working for a seismic company. And uh I got stuck on
the hill where I could not move anymore, but I was on a hill and just sitting on the brakes
freaking out. Uh yeah, that was a fun one. Okay, backing up through. Oo, we did it, man. We
did it. 156 watching. It’s going to get bigger every day. Everyone, pile in now. Pile in now.
Don’t miss the women’s tour. Oh, yeah. Guys, I was saying earlier, Joey does all the tour
stuff, social media stuff. I even posted on LinkedIn today. I hate LinkedIn. Uh, it’s done
me no good. It’s just a waste of my time. Uh, but I did post on there because I still have
business connections downtown and I find a lot of people look at my stuff and go, “Wow, this guy
can actually talk. He’s not just a pretty face.” Uh, yeah, guys, you guys are chatting so much
here. Uh, yep. Should be a TT. The first stage was 79 km only. They should have put a TT in the
morning. Yeah, I love that. Uh, double stage. Yeah, keep it a short TT like six minutes or six
kilometers then they can’t lose that much or cap the cap the TT losses. They’ve done that in the
past too in men’s cycling. Uh maybe they’ve done it in women cycling too. Okay, so we’re going to
be checking out Lorita Caldera later today. Break only has 1.35. Okay, guys. Still looking at it
here. I’m just going to go back on down now. So, it’s 1.62 62 km back to the Pelon. I think
these 12 up front are driving super hard. Uh knowing this is their chance to score the
10 points and then probably ease off for the day or maybe go for it. You never know what their
plans are. Uh but these 12 are all together here. Oo, take a look at this. So it it’s
saying that Lena is in the main group, which I did see her coming back on. Rider
121 here, back of the Pelaton for Liv, Alula, Jacob following out the back now. So Liv, team
leader out the back. So we’re going to watch the mirror. And I did see another group back here.
Here’s a chase group coming up right now. Drop riders. They’re only 52 meters back. Uh, it says
there are 11 riders back there. Here’s Allison Jackson. So, maybe it’s leveled off a bit here.
It’s just the pacing. They’re going to come back onto that Pelaton right away. So, the drop riders
will come back unless that front group accelerates right now. Back to the front, guys. Back to
the front. Back to the front. If you know that, tell me that song. I just It’s in my head. Back to
the front. Joey might know it. Is Joey awake yet? She might be uh I haven’t seen her
comment yet. Uh Steve Mangag. Uh dude, there’s a group of 12 out front right
now chasing polka dot jersey points and I’m just going to catch up, guys. Did any
teams miss the break? Maybe EF uh in the front break. I’m looking here right now. I don’t see
EF popping out there. So, they might have missed the break. I’ll jump back. I’m going to catch up
real quick here. Yes, Derek G. He’s the man right now. That guy is so good. I hope we see him at the
Walta. Some teams have announced already Almeida’s going. Auso is going. No, Pogy. We all knew that.
Uh I mean, they kept talking about like all the things. Yes, I have uh Hello, this is today. Uh
the Valt is one of my goals this year. I’m like, no, it’s not, dude. It’s not. I think everyone
if you follow cycling new he’s not gonna race it. He’s absolutely burnt out. Uh 13 summers as
a a raft trip leader helps with hydro geology. Does that exist? Yeah, dude it does. There’s jobs
around here for hydro geologists. It’s like I tell people though they’re like, “Well, Colin, you’re a
geologist. Why don’t you go become a gold miner?” Totally different. Uh it would be like saying you
know a brain surgeon and they just decided one day it is now illegal to perform brain surgery.
That person can’t do anything outside of maybe being like uh in management at the hospital.
That brain surgeon would not be able to go do uh heart surgery. They don’t specialize in that. I
specialized in oil and gas. The world’s changing. We got EVs. We got no pipelines. We’ve got uh
climate stuff going on. We’ve got people lobbying to shut all oil and gas down. Yet, we all need it
still. Uh we need to transition out of it. That’s my point. And please no one say political. No, I
didn’t say that. Uh trivia. The future of Canada cycling has a twin. Both of them in the same team,
although they are not in the TDF right now. Oh, wow. So, there’s twins. So, the future of Canada
cycling, female cycling, uh, on the same team. I still don’t know. Oh, right here. Lady Boss. Who
is Lady Boss? I love this. She just drops right in and drops some knowledge on us. Dropping
knowledge, folks. That’s what we’re calling this. Lady Boss, please introduce yourself. Where
are you from? Like, right away. Hol sisters. Uh, Lady Boss. Dream. I had no idea. Uh, guys, I’m
just natural. I’ll tell you how it is. If I don’t know something, I ain’t going to fake my way
through it. But their team, it’s a big team. Okay. Uh Drew Schaefer. Wow. Longest. Yeah, dude.
135 kilometers back then. You know, in the past, it’s so weird reading all the old stuff about the
tour. Like when the climbers first came along, climbers that would start would stand out of
the saddle back then at the original tour. Henry Degrange himself said he goes, “Oh, he’s
a weak man.” Yeah, that those are the comments. As a climber back then, you sat down and you
grinded your way to the top. If you had to stand, you were considered to be weak. I didn’t make
that up. Going through some open areas here now, guys. Going to spin around. Give you a little
bike ter here. It’s flattened out up here, guys. Down to 3% gradient. So, this 23 24k an hour
looks right on part of me. I am watching the front here though. Here, uh there’s attacks going off
in this front group. Shab’s in second place right now. There’s definitely attacks going off in
that front group. All sticking together. And I’m I’m kind of watching bike terror here at the
same time, too, to see if we start seeing little breaks. But it looks like they’re all hanging in
here. These 12 are determined to stick together. Yeah, Lady Boss. Ding, ding, ding. Which team?
The twin is paternal. Very interesting. They have a different physiology. Okay. I didn’t know
that. Lady boss. Isabella. She kills it in MTB. Lady boss, please introduce yourself and how
long have you been a lurker for. Uh, everyone, I encourage everyone to talk here. And again,
guys, that would that’s what I would say. That’s my weak my big weakness would be mountain biking.
But you know what? Like on flow bikes, they have mountain biking. They have they even have BMX. I’m
like, one day I’m going to comment on BMX. Just have fun with it. I find races all the time on
YouTube. All you hear is the motorbikes. Not one word is said and it’ll be a three-hour race. I’m
like, why don’t you just get someone to do this? Uh, one has the GC body, the other has a normal
cyclist one. Okay. She represented Canada mountain bike Olympics last year, ladies. So good. You’re
dropping this information here. I’m going to learn about this today. I promise. Isabella
just placed top 10 recently. Uh, so there’s Isabella. What’s the other one’s name? So there’s
it’s the Hulgrrim twin sisters. Uh looking here at the front of the Pelaton, it says they’re 55
seconds back right now. That’s going to equate to uh it says 2.4 km here, guys, cuz that’s the kind
of climb we’re going up. Uh we’re not even halfway up yet. We haven’t even got to the hard stuff yet.
So I’m expecting very soon, looking at the profile on the bottom of the screen, that white line just
up ahead of us here now, it’s going to level off a little bit. Actually, there’s some darker purple
segments. You can see it’s kind of a magenta that’s going to get steep. That’s where it’s
breaking apart. When’s the GC going after? I don’t know. They’re all sticking together. They’ve even
got the sprinter Lina Viviz with them right now. Fueled. Uh oh, Dream Sane. Dang, Isabella placed seventh at
the gro just recently. That would have been at the beginning of July, guys. Canada’s future right
there. Awesome. Okay, I’m gonna learn about her. Uh Don saying, “I will start a feel
a 700 climb after about 300 meters, then my legs start to scream after uh one.” Yeah.
So yesterday, Dawn Paragudes, it’s 78% for 8 km, 9 km almost. It’s actually steeper than that. You
climb 650 m in 8 km. So that means it’s got to be about 8% gradient all the way. Some parts it dips
down, other parts it’s going to be 10%. Just go. I did that yesterday and I’m out of shape right now.
I’m completely out of shape. Uh this dude here, hi from Ethiopia. This guy’s been here before. Uh
say Ibra been here before. 131 watching. Thanks so much guys. Just bang over there for a second.
Hit the thumb button. Other people will see it tonight. We’re going to keep growing this. Uh
yeah, Don saying, “LinkedIn, I only use it for a job. 17 years.” Yeah, dude. I’ve been on LinkedIn
so long. Uh I’ve looked for so many jobs. I’m at the point now I’ve absolutely given up. I’m tired
of sending out resumes. Uh hearing back three months later, “Yes, sorry. We hired someone that’s
30 years younger than you to do a junior level entry job. Oh, you’ve been a geologist for 20
years. We don’t care. We want someone that we can uh boss around and keep under our thumb.” That’s
what it comes down to. These swish backs are looking cool here, guys. The uh the main Pelton’s
a little bit too far back to see them yet. So, they’re just gradually moving up here 3%. They’re
going to come out of the flat stage now. This is a flatter area. It’s going to start kicking right
away. I’m expecting this part coming up next to be in more of the 9% gradient just based I’m going
to guess 9% gradient would be the kick for that magenta. Yeah, I did put a post on there. Uh I
put a post on there for LinkedIn. It’s and kind of like my little network in Calgary. There’s a
lot of dudes that ride bikes. So here’s my twisted little way of doing this. Maybe someone watch Hey,
that Colin dude. Yeah, he’s not stupid. Look what he’s doing. Maybe he’s we should give him a job.
I don’t know. I’ve lost all my networking ability with the people downtown. Everyone that’s hiring,
they got half my experience and they’re 15 years younger than me. They don’t want to hire you.
That’s what happens when you get old guys. Uh yeah, Justine. Yeah, she’s got the red cheeks for
sure. Called the Oh, okay. Drew saying call. Yeah. Okay. called you M. We’re going to call it in the
Swiss Jura towards Lake Geneva. Has 13% grades after 80k. I had to walk it for 1 kilometer. Rudy
came by and asked who’s Rudy? Who is Rudy? Uh Rudy came by and asked if I was okay. Said I’m doing
them five 5.9 km an hour. Tough. That’s tough, man. Uh Lady Boss, this is from Dream. Uh
seeing a rider step off the bike here. She’s already trying to get her back wheel off. Uh, I
don’t know what she was doing there. Actually, she might have been pulling something
out of the derailure because, you know, she’s obviously doesn’t have quick release on
the back anymore of these bikes. Passing a church here. This reminds me of the finish stage 21 where
it looped around. Uh, so that camera is a little delayed. I wonder if I can show you that here.
That’s delayed. Going to bounce back to LoBis here. Okay guys, this is how it looks at the
back. Check this out. Already falling apart. Lot of riders here. So the front generally
more climbers or people that are pretending to be climbers today. They want to just get up
there setting up something for later. Back here is kind of like the riders of all different
abilities. Weird data point there. Those guys racing away. You can see it happening here. This
is just a surge of data coming from the tour to France. But there’s four groups back here. Four
different groups showing up. Drop riders at the back. It looks like there’s a handful of them back
here. Uh, it says there’s 13 riders back here. So, that’s what they’re seeing. They can all see each
other. Riders are looking up ahead. Actually, I’ve got four groups on the road here. One,
two. One’s just tucked behind the trees here. Three. And right at the very top, there’s a fourth
group. They’re watching them sail away right now, guys. Sailing away. Uh, yeah, Vivus has dropped
again. So, we got the the white jersey and the yellow jersey together right now. VBUS is in the
next group back, which is to be expected. Uh, we’re just going to hang here. You can
watch that train of groups coming up. Uh, yes, Lady Boss. Yes, the Twins were
both national champ. I think Isabella got World Cup in her age group.
World champion in her age group. Uh he he replied, “Murdy, crap, I’m only going 7.4
pedaling.” Oh, yeah. Some up some of these climbs, guys, I’m I’m pedaling in the 40, sometimes the
30 RPMs. I don’t have the lowest gear set up on my bike. Thankfully, uh you know, I got strong
knees. I got strong legs. Uh I never feel knee pain. I just grind it out. I hate standing. I
I’m seated the entire time. Alapagi. So yeah, in my mind I like to think I’m him, I guess. Or
I think I’m one of the strong men from the past. Uh Robertson, it’s time to admit to Colin. You’re
not going to catch up. It’s a good thing. Yeah, I know, dude. I love it. Uh and and I enjoy
reading all the comments. I really do. It’s great having this back and forward. Yeah, like
I’ve already lost track again. Okay, there I am. David Blom again. break lead down to a minute. Uh
something driving the pal and driving the pilot on. I think that’s what I was saying. Oil and gas
con. So, did you step over to the other side and get a Tesla? No, dude. I didn’t. Uh oil and gas
went really sideways here in 2018 and I started doing a bunch of other stuff. Uh pipelines got
shut down. There was a major pipeline going to cross into the states. Shut down one day. Uh
Alberta dumped over a billion dollars. Uh, I guess the Alberta government and someone’s gonna
say, “You’re being political, Colin.” Well, then don’t listen. I’m not being political. This is
the reality of what happened. Uh, there was a big pipeline being built to the US to send all of our
oil goodness to the US. Got shut down in one day. Bunch of American people, I think they said 11,000
Americans lost their their jobs in one day. Uh, the Alberta government was helping fund a lot
of that pipeline because it’s good for Alberta. Uh, not being political, it’s just the reality.
So, yeah, no EVs. Um, I love oil and gas. I love my career. Wow, guys. Take a look at
this one group here. That’s the lead group, the yellow group. There’s another group coming
around the corner. You can just see them up going behind these buildings here on the switchback. A
third group. I think that’s all we have out there right now. Yeah, looks like Well, there could be
another group back there. Let’s see who’s back in this group here. Drop riders. Uh, we’re going
way to the back. Allison Jackson back here. Okay, they’re still chasing on right now. So, we got
one group here, second group, third group just off the top. And I saw a fourth group here. So, it is
still four groups. Let’s race to the front and see if they’ve blown apart yet. Still saying we have
12 riders here. I’m going to go confirm right now, guys. Let’s just jump out of here for a second.
Get some time gaps for you. Uh here we are. 12 in the front group. 35 seconds. It’s really
stabilized. 1 minute 10. Back to the Pelaton. Uh 6% gradient there. 5% gradient there. 140.
Sorry, it’s 111 from the yellow jersey to the green jersey. From the front to the back, we’re
talking it’s not really that bad. It’s under two minutes from the front to the back right
now. So, everyone’s riding really strong right now. Trying to stay right in there. Let’s
catch up with chat here. Uh, Robertson, yeah, the break is doom. I always root for the break,
though. Me, too. That’s when you get super biased calling come out. Yeah. So, no Tesla yet. Uh, me
and Joey have talked about a new car. We have two SUVs. Plus, I have an old car I never drive
anymore. Uh, but I’ll never sell. Uh, I said, “Why don’t we get an EV or even like a really good
hybrid?” Like they have some hybrids that you’re going to get like 30 to 40 miles on a charge
before the gas engine kicks in. I I think those are really smart. So, you’re not 100% dependent
on the battery. You’re not 100% dependent on uh trying to pull over and charge all at the same
time. There’s parts when you go north in Canada, there might be a charger there. It might be.
I’ve looked them up. I’m like, I wonder how bad it is really. They’re not 500 kilowatt
charges. They’re 10. Uh, you’ll be parked there for a day to get a charge. So, I think now
some of the Tesla superchargers are like 500 and 1,000 kilowatts, I believe. If you drive a
Tesla, let me know. I don’t And if you do, that’s great. Uh, so when you go north of Prince
Albert in Saskatchewan on the way up to Lrange, I might go follow a dog race up there this winter.
take a camera with me, report from the field, just like this kind of. But I’ll be out there
um in the dark, in the spookiness. Like guys, it’s like the middle of nowhere. But yeah, they
have chargers. I found them. You can find every charger. There’s maps. One 10 kilowatt hour
charger. You’re going to sit there for a date. You really can’t do it there. Uh but that’s a side
point. Not getting political. Moving on. Oh, Lady Boss, they ride for Leel Trek. Okay. Homegrown
sisters, Canadians, they arrive for Lead Trek. Lady boss still needs to introduce yourself. Where
you from, Lady Boss? You must be Canadian. Uh, would like to see the stats for French bicycle
sales and smaller sizes. Yeah, Ava and Isabella, their brother, also rides mountain bike for lead
track from Ontario, like me. Okay. So, Lady Boss is from Ontario. Welcome aboard, Lady Boss. I’m in
Alberta. Uh, single track downhill mountain biking through the woods is fun, but I fell too much over
the handlebars. I had to stop when I was 20. Yeah, once you fall a few times, smash yourself up. Uh,
it gets old real quick. Gets old real quick. So, we still have our 12 riders at the front.
Uh, I think I’m always going to Well, I will I’ll never catch up as uh I think Dawn
said earlier. Yeah, we’re on the cold to be. Okay. Uh, why? Oh, I missed that part. Someone was asking,
“Why is someone taking their hands off the handle to operate racer? Someone’s head down on chest.
Why is this still legal in safety first?” Yeah, I’d like to see stages with no radios. I would
like to see what the riders do when they got to do it themselves. Uh, I really like that. You
know, like there’s it’s almost like they have too much data as to what’s going on. Oh, by the way,
uh your opponent that’s uh actually leading right now up the road, she broke down, so now you need
to attack. They’re not going to slow down at that point. They’re going to put the full attack in due
to a mechanic. So, you’d wait if they were behind you, but if they’re ahead of you, break down,
you’re just going to pull them right back. I Yeah, like let the riders figure it out. Head of the
Pelaton again right now. Looking at slight delay video here, and there are riders slipping out this
group. The SD Works rider is really struggling to catch on. This is rider number 44. I can see
Elise Shabby up ahead. Let’s take a look at that there. This group’s going to be splitting up
right now. Here we go. 56 m back. Uh team picnic past NL rider. Uh okay, they’ve lumped them all
back together. So, they must be fighting their way back on. There were three riders. Here we
are. Go again. Two of them. Uh SD Works rider, uh FK Geritzy, and we got Georgie back here. Feifer
Georgie. Someone was asking about Feifer earlier. Uh, whoever that was, Feifer is right there. Two
riders have just fallen out of the group of 12 at the front. Guys, I knew this would happen here
right when we got to the middle of the climb. And when I say I knew this would happen, this is not
my incredible race predicting skills, guys. It’s just going to happen. We can all see this. If you
followed cycling for a while, riders are going to start slipping out. We got Loretta Hansen here
just riding on the back for Leel Trek right now. Uh, here’s an SD Works rider here. Blanca
Vas. Okay, so this must be further back, though. Yeah, this is behind
the Pelon. Oh, hang on a second, though. Hang on a second here, guys. I can’t see
how big this group is up ahead of us here. Yeah, this is the back of the Pelon. I only saw about
10 jerseys. Uh, German rider off the back there, very back. It looks like a picnic rider.
Actually looking pretty good there. So, yeah, Blancavos is out the back now as well.
Uh, we’re going to come back here. Oops. Drop riders. Okay. I like seeing that. I like to see
dropped riders. I’d hate to think there’s one lone rider just suffering by themselves. It
does happen. Here we go again, guys. Here’s the groups all fighting their way up here. 3 4%
gradient. Probably going to steepen up right away. Okay, let’s just uh bounce up a little bit here.
Bounce right back to the front. 6% gradient here. So again, you’re just jumping in now. We got 129
watching right now. This is a cycling app. This is how I ride bikes inside. I get to ride the same
courses as the as the professionals do. I could jump on. They’re doing the full stage as you can
see. Anyone that uses Bike Terra could join this event today and ride a portion of it, ride the
whole thing, do whatever you want. They’re they also have events where they’ve taken chunks of
the race. So, they’ll probably take like they’ll start at the bottom of the uh the be here, the
call to be, and they’ll probably do over two climbs. They’ll do like 30 or 40ks so you can
get a taste of what it’s like. SD works rider that fell out is now being caught. I think
that was Geritzi. I think that was the name. Uh there’s also Okay, well she might have
already been caught because that video is delayed. Uh Feifer Georgie still by herself.
This is Picnic Post and L Rider. Pelaton will be coming up behind her soon. I mean they’re
a little ways back, but she’s stuck by herself right now. If she can fight her way back on, get
to the front. 10 riders in the front group. We started with 12. I’m looking at Fifer right
now and the SD works rider. So there’s data points missing here because I’m watching the
SD Riders caught by the yellow jersey right now and Feifer Georgie Georgie is just out ahead
maybe 100 meters. So she’s already been caught. There’s not this gigantic gap here. So it’s
actually a lot closer. Yeah. Feifer Georgie team picnic past NL. Uh she’s got the pelaton
about 150 meters behind her on a 7% gradient here. Awesome. Kim Lort and yellow jersey leading
the pelon up here. Julie Bego is still there for Kofadis. Here’s the group. So yeah, they’re
not even showing uh Fifer here at this point. She’s already been devoured by the pelaton. Uh,
let’s go be some time checks. Time checks. Oh, I wasn’t even showing it, guys. I wasn’t even
showing it. I’m sorry. I did it again. Sorry, guys. I’ve been meaning to show you bike. Okay,
so we’re going to stick on bike terror for a while now. Uh, bike terra was supposed to be on. I’ve
been doing all my talking, what I’m watching here with bike terra on. H that’s terrible. I’m sorry.
So you guys got to see the boring stuff here. So this is what’s been going on. I’ve been trying
to show you all these groups. There was like four groups riding like within 50 meters of each other.
So let’s just jump on Lena Vivas here. Now now I can show you. Okay, there’s a front group here.
Uh this will be the Pelaton. The Pelaton’s just up the road here if we look back. Uh and guys,
I need to double check that this is on. Yeah, this is on. Yeah, again, I apologize. Uh, no
one up the road. Here’s the Pelaton looking back down the hill. And you can see the groups just
splintered. There’s four groups splintered off right now. GC Pelaton chasing group that has Lina
Vivas in it. She’s in the second group. Going to spin around so you can see. There’s the GC Pelaton
ahead of us. Third and fourth group behind us. I’ve been watching this for the past 10 minutes.
thinking you guys can see it. Someone yell at me more often. Uh, watching the video replay here.
Shab still leading. Riders falling out the back. I think the front end’s getting even smaller
right now. Front end’s getting smaller. Pretty sure I saw Silky Smolders right there with them
with her. Down to eight riders. Exactly. I just watched it. So, we’ve lost two riders. That will
be Amber Crack for FDJ and Loretta Hansen. Okay, she should have Yeah, there should be two
riders here. They’ve just cracked out the back here. Uh slightly delayed video, so
it might have just been a little while ago uh within 30 40 seconds. They’re 300 m back in
the trees here. Probably around this bend through here. So, we’re going to hang at the front. Morgan
cost on. Kind of like lit the action off today, folks. 7% gradient through here. Guys,
yell at me more when I’m doing that. Uh, I’m going to catch up. Rudy. Oh, okay. Every handsome
70-year-old French rider I saw when I was riding uh 40. Okay, I gotcha. So, every every French dude out there that’s good
on a bike, his name’s Rudy. Okay, I got you. Alicia Shabi looking at the group here
a lot. She might be talking to another rider. I think she’s talking to the UAE rider
this year. Now, UAE rider Australian bands. Uh, I can’t tell. Let’s figure this out
here. Who is the UAE rider here, guys? Brody Chapman. Brody Chapman. I
knew that she was Australian. So, Brody Chapman’s there. We’ve got Moistar
there as well. That’s Lean Libert. Yeah, eight riders showing here. We got eight riders
in the group here. Perfect. Perfect stuff. So, let’s bounce back here now. Uh, we’ll go to Lena
Vivbe’s group. I just saw Puck Peter’s name there. Let me uh jump out here a little bit. Yeah, take
a look around this corner here. This is great. So, when I finally get my when I finally access the
other camera mode, I’m able to zoom out even more. I just haven’t had a chance to test it yet.
Uh I’ll be trying that again today. So, there’s no one else down the road. Basically, the
riders coming around this corner. I’m going to back up one more one more group. Lahi Clay here.
Probably a Belgian rider with that name. Uh did I click on her? Here’s Imigan Wolf. Uh I think she’s
the youngest rider in the race at 19 years old. There’s the f the last group on the road right
there. And if we go back here to the drop riders, which there’s a few of them again, guys, I
I should have seen that that that wasn’t on. Actually, I should be able to
see it because it’s really crazy, guys. I have my YouTube chat open. Obviously,
that’s why I’m chatting with you in my screen up here. I can see what’s being broadcast as
well. I need to focus on that, but I get so intent. Uh we got a a shot here of Maryanne
Boss. Yep. So technically third group on the road. Uh the crack group will be caught here
pretty soon. Going to zip back up here. Yeah, they’re only 242 m behind. So I’m going to
zip up there. Actually, it shows that they’re gone now. So they might have just been caught.
Yeah, things are moving now, guys. Things are moving now. I’m going to check the time checks. I
won’t jump out. Uh it’s 27 seconds. It’s actually uh about a minute back to the Pelaton from the
front end right now and I’m able to jump in and out and do that real quick. Amber Crack riding
solo up the road. So yeah, she is still out there. There was two of them before. FDJ rider here.
Uh I think there was the picnic past NL rider who’s probably just, you know, slammed on the
brakes waiting for the uh the pelon to come up. We’ll whip up to the front here. Yara, we’re
going to hang out with Yara for a little bit. 6% gradient, guys. We’re getting up there. You
can see the climb heading up into the distance. Uh, Olympics and World Championship. Yeah,
I did see that at the Olympics and the World Championships. Actually, I’m seeing the lead
trek rider being caught by the Pelaton. Now, this is Loretta Hansen for Lead El
Trek, 74th overall. Looking back, Pelon pushing hard. Sud doll riders on the
front and uh Kiml Court there as well. And this is Amber Crack here. She will be caught
real quick. Let’s see if we see that on bike terrier. They’re still saying 463 m. Okay, who
do we got here? Marian Boss is now out the back, guys. The climb is too much for her. Sixth
overall, 37 seconds down the GC. Every car is gone. They’ve all passed her. Uh she’s probably
going to lose a ton of time here right now. We probably still have at least two
kilometers to climb. Just my guess. Uh friends is hoping for Loretta Weaves in today.
Dude, that I don’t think that’s going to happen today unless she catches up on the descent. Uh
Olympics and World Championships have no radio, I believe. Yeah, I saw it at World Championship.
No radio. You’re on your own. So, there should be uh weeks with with no radio. They should try that
first on UH2 or for safety. Yeah, I’d love to see it just so that the riders can make up decisions
or the team has to have their strategy beforehand and then the riders got to figure it out. Right
now, they’re told everything. The DS’s are in the cars watching to see, oh, so and so crashed up the
road. Attack or don’t attack. It kind of throws the whole race out. There’s too much control over
the race, too much knowledge of what’s going on. Let the riders figure it out. Yeah, Robert teams
will then scream loud that they have to have race radio for safety. Yeah, exactly. This bike here
is pretty cool. I can watch the race highlights this afternoon. Yeah, again guys, sorry I had
that on the whole time watching these groups, panning around showing it. Uh I just
thought you guys were seeing it. And again, I got to pay more attention here. Again, I’m
looking at three screens at once. race. What’s actually being broadcast? Uh, but the thing is,
well, what I’m doing, I didn’t have it turned on, though. So, there’s a little eyeball. You click
it, it’s grayed out if it’s not on. It’s white if it’s turned on. I had the other one turned on,
but my fault 100%. I take full blame. Beside the chat here, I can see what’s being broadcast
on YouTube. Just wasn’t paying attention. Uh, David Blom. Yeah, Voss has dropped, guys. She’s
gone. Elise Shab looking really good in the polka dots here. Out of the saddle. 18k an hour.
7% gradient here. They’re getting it done, folks. They are getting it done. Ah, look
at this here. Sariah Paladins’s falling out of the front group. Uh, okay. I’m going to get
this all figured out. Seven riders left in that front group. Seven riders left. Alis Shab here,
she wants those 10 points. So does Silke, uh, and so does Brody. They’re kind of battling right
now. I think either one of any one of those three riders could be in the polka dots at the end
of the day. Just my guess right now based on the points. Lot of riders struggling now. Again,
Sudol pushing on the front here. Uh, I just want to confirm. Yeah, sure looks like AG Sadal to
me. Kim Lort right there sitting in second place all the way. She’s kind of wedged in between two
AG Sudal riders. Head of the course here again. Uh four. Okay, it looks like there’s eight now.
So maybe unless I counted that wrong. I think someone Oh, it’s saying seven riders there.
Let’s just look. I got to count. I got to learn how to count, guys. Yeah, seven riders
up front. Seven riders up front. Top three, just off the top of my head, at
least has the polka dot jersey. Uh, Silke is right there as well. And
Brody’s got some points today, too. Man, I’d love to see I I’d like to see a change
in the polka dots. Actually, I read yesterday, too, that um five days in a row. That’s a first
at the uh tour of France Fam for a rider holding the polka dot jersey that long. So, we lost Sariah
Paladin out of the group. And it looks like she’s just been caught by the Pelon. Jump back to the
Pelaton here quickly. Actually, it’s showing it right now. I think that’s the rider that fell
out there. That might be the data point right there. They put her back with the group. So, if
anything, she’s fighting her way back on now, guys. I’m going to see if this happens. I’m
waiting to see in my delayed video feed if she comes back on. So, either her data point
was kind of messed up. Well, she definitely lost contact with this group. There’s seven
in the front group, delayed video. Over here, I got eight riders coming back together across
this open area. I’m looking in the distance to see anyone else. Don’t see them yet. Now we can bounce
back to the Pelaton here. Here’s KLC. KLCP. Uh groups already forming there. Rider still falling
out. Maryanne Voss right now is 569 m back. So she’s riding by herself at this
point. And when I saw her get dropped, she was completely alone. 6% gradient
there. Still seven R. And I’m now seeing Serea Paladin come back on the Yeah,
she’s back on now. She fought her way back. Awesome effort there. Awesome
effort there, guys. So, she is back. Sura Paladin here. Back with them. Eight riders
back together. We’re probably only a kilometer to the top at this point. And with Lean Liippard
here over the top, leveled off a little bit here. 5% 4% now. It’s wide open at the top here on the
video as well. So, this is me showing there’s just like a smattering of like bushy type trees.
Very open. And I did say I was going to do this for you guys. We’re getting to the top. See if
I can do this quick. 17.5 degrees up here. So, it was 25 degrees down in the valley. We
lost 8° almost coming up to the top here. Kim Lort’s doing a really good job sitting at the
front of the Pelon there. Uh, wow. They can’t be that far behind. There they are. There they are.
There’s the chase group. So, it’s all going to come back together real quick here, guys. It’s a
kilometer to go. Uh, I think these front seven, eight riders are going to be caught by the pelon
and they are not going to get the 10 points. So riders like Demi Cashia, we haven’t said
anything about them today yet. The yellow jersey is easy to spot. Here they come. They’re
coming now, guys. Uh, okay. 143 Washington. Thanks for watching, guys. Really appreciate it. Drop a
quick like. Got to go to work now. Joe 512. Uh, dude, I just missed your comment there.
It just went off the screen. Thanks, Colin chat. Go Pauline. She’s coming up right
now, dude. She’s coming up. The pelaton’s going to cash them before they get to the top.
Uh if I was in that front group of eight, you need to attack right now. So let’s see
how that goes. What a great stage. Uh dream Robert 2021 three breakaways only got only two
got chased. They forgot their ones. Okay. Work hard Joe. Take chances from Robert. Hit the like
button please. Thank you Joe. Hit the like guys. Just a quick thumbs uh helps the channel get seen
by people later. 159 watching night. We’re through it. We did it. That was my goal. Tomorrow
or uh Friday, I think Saturday is a big day, too. 200. We need 200 for Saturday, guys.
So, Shabby right now has 16 points. Silke has nine. Chapman eight. We still haven’t got the
points for this climb we’re going to go through, guys. There’s 10 points available. Any one of
those riders could potentially get polka dots. All depends how shabby places overall with the points
that are on tap. I think Brody would have to win uh to dethrone Shab. Silky could win it and
Shabby could still retain it. I’m going to watch what I see over here, guys. I’m going
to ignore that. Uh I’m seeing a rider from Liv Alula Jacob going. Elise Shab right on her
wheel. It’s a far shot. It looks like live the live rider still got it. Elise Shabby comes up on
her right hand side. I think the Jacob rider got it. So I think Silky Smolders’s got it. She’s
going to jump to 16 points. Elise is going to get some good points there. Uh she’ll still be
able to keep that polka dot jersey. Um Brody was the one that was closest. Okay. Sorry about the
camera here. They’re on the descent now. Yeah, here it is. Two riders. So Ber got that perfect
guys. Alise Shabby there and Silky Smores. They were over the top first. At least 50 meters ahead
of the other riders. They’re already descending now. This is going to be a furious descent here.
These two probably want to stay away. Uh they’ve got another climb coming. Oops, sorry. They’ve
got another climb coming. There’s more points available, so why wait for everyone else? These
two pesky lightweight climbers can duel it out. And I think Silky Smolders is very lightweight
just from her build. She looks very very small. Uh very very lean. So really cool to see the polka
dot jersey out front defending uh and attacking. Let’s uh I will jump just to see if I can get
points there. Top of the cat one climb. No data yet. Nothing from the tour to France. back to bike
terror because that’s where we’re really going to be able to follow this thing as long as I can
interpret what’s going on. Two riders up front are being caught by the other ones. Eight riders are
back together, guys. So, it’s like two up front, two in between, four sitting behind. They’re
all within probably of road time 1 second. So, they’re all going to get lumped as one group.
Let’s bounce back to the Pelaton here. Pelaton time. We’re going to see where they’re at. They
should be over the top, too. They’re over the top. Uh, Pelon looks still looks pretty big. Let’s back
to Mariam Boss. She’s over the top, too. See if we got any more groups still heading up. Lena Vibas
still climbing. These riders are still climbing. Uh, they’re going to lose a lot of time here,
guys. A lot of time. When we went over the top, we were in the wide open, so they’re not even out
of the trees yet. Not the trees, guys. Uh just to give you more perspective of this, let’s bounce
back here to the other view for a second. And uh now you can see, take a look at this. So Lena
Viva’s group here and other riders, of course, uh 31 riders in this group. They’re not at the
top of the cat one yet. The other riders are screaming downhill right now. They’re going to
be in the valley for like 3 seconds and then they start climbing. They’re probably going to take
a turn and start climbing again. Behind them, there’s a fifth group of 10 riders and there’s
a a group further back. Six riders. Uh Allison Jack’s group. They seem to have been off the group
uh off the back all day. Allison Jackson’s been in a couple of really really strong breakaways.
So maybe there’s some fatigue in the legs and they’re more looking for stage victories. Uh
tomorrow is more hilly than mountainous. Okay, moving on here. Where is the top of the next
climb? There it is. So here’s our next Jeep uh category 2. Ooh, guys, this is going to be
bike terra central right through there. Those cool switchbacks. We’ll be looking at them
here. This switch back, this looks awesome, guys. What I’ll do is I’m going to I’ll
fire this up again in the background. Boom. Let’s go. Now it’s saying we got six riders
in the front group. We’ve lost two of them. We lost Morgan Caston and Brody Chapman. Let’s
hang out with Brody here for a second. On the descent. On the descent, guys. So, this should
come back together quickly at the bottom. These two are together. And I mean, the front group is
2 seconds up the road. That’s what I’m seeing. It’s only 63 m. So, they’ll be back on. Let’s go
with Elise Shavey because she is wearing Queen of the Mountains jersey. Uh, Sia Paladin there. Just
trying to see. That’s the rider that fell off the back earlier and got her way back on. Okay. So,
oh, and yeah, sorry guys. I just did it. I I used YouTube there to my advantage to my live stream
and I could see that this was not on. So, there we’re back. Colin, you need to look there, too.
So, that should be refreshing right away. Is that refreshing? It looks like we’re there. Yep. So,
that was me yammering away. Yeah. So, I can see right now I’m looking at the map. Then I realize
I’m on Bera. So, I’m living in the past for a few seconds here. I’m going to just I want them to get
down the hill. I want to do a quick nature break here. So, everyone do their nature breaks. Uh oh
my still going. CJO, can we VBS finish top 10 at least in GC? No. Uh, I’m sure Dream will answer
there. It’ be it would be like it’d be a miracle if she did. I think she’s a sprinter. Uh, Dave
Blom Smiler’s first home, Elise Shabby second, Chapman third. Okay, I’m going to catch up here,
guys. Things we can easily spot. Green jersey, yellow jersey, polka dot jersey, short shorts.
Exactly. Exactly. Uh yes, you’re right, Don. Yeah. Uh Dream saying here, CJ, slim slim chance.
It will be all mountains for the next few days. Like today’s a mountain stage, tomorrow’s a
hilly stage, and then it’s two more mountain stages. Lina Vib is the best uh women’s sprinter
out there right now. Like far and away. Really cool to see Elise Shave going hard here on the
front, taking all sorts of risks. data just data patches here guys coming in. I’m going to jump
up to Silky Smolders here now. Let me have a look here. It’s saying that Smolders is out front. I
think this is data data patches here guys. Elise Shabies. I don’t 324 years back. I don’t really
necessarily believe that at this point. Having a quick image here of Mariam Bunelling head of the
course is uh Alise Shabi. Guys, what we’ll do, I’m going to do this here quickly. Uh, we’re
going to take you back here. We’re going to go to the map view just for a second. I need about
90 second break here. I’m going to put this in map mode again before we start the climb. You can
see the groups now. So, here’s the groups. Uh, just give me 90 seconds. I’ll come back. See
you soon, riders. Please like the channel if you just found it. Uh, so I can keep pumping these
out. Walt is coming next month. 144 watching. The Jirro is coming early next year. We got the
tour down under coming up. Tons of stuff, guys. All right, riders. Super quick break. There
they are on the climb. Call the Shansert. I did look this up last night. Category 2 climb.
Uh 6.5% gradient on a well 5.5% average. Kicks up to about 6.5. It’s not a killer. Um, things
are heating up here, folks. Things are heating up. I think we got a group of three. Shab
Liippard, Leanne Liippard here from Overstar and Sura Paladin. This is the rider earlier that
got shelled out the back and she fought her way back on. Love it. Absolutely love this here.
Let’s take a look at this here right now. Three riders on 35 km remaining. Here’s Paladin Sura
Paladin. Paladin for Canyon Ram. Here’s Leanne Leapert Moistar and then Shabi. Okay, let’s get
it all figured out. We There’s a bunch of riders coming behind them. It says it’s 14 seconds
back. Oh, that group’s already on them. So, in the time I’ve been gone, the Pelaton’s
descended and devoured those riders. So, Silky Smolders is gone. Brody Chapman is gone. I’m
expecting to see more attacks up this next one, too. So, let’s get turned back into
that now. We’ll get it all figured out. Oh, they’re saying someone
almost crashed for EF Education. Shabby first overall. We know that. And yeah,
Shabby was flying on the descent. I saw that. The Swiss rider distance smolders after a
few bends. Yeah, she’s been gone for a long time. Uh Kim Laort just sitting in second place
here. Oh, she’s coming back onto a bigger group. So, probably just got shelled out the back for
a little bit. Fought our way back on. Let’s get back into lovely juicy bike terra here. You
can see the climb happen. Leading group. Ooh, it’s all coming back together, folks. The Pelon is
pushing hard. The GC hitters are coming out now, guys. The GC hitters are coming out. Here’s
Shabby by herself. Uh, still attacking. Here is the entire Pelon. New race right now, guys. New
race now. Seeing Pauline here for Vizma chasing after KLC. This group here is probably less
than 40 riders. Probably less than 40 riders. I’m seeing a lease shabby here just out front of
them. So they’re catching her. Now we’re going to look down the valley there and see if we can see
other riders. Oh yeah, we got some nice little switch back action here. So there’s Shabby being
caught. Here’s the Pelaton. One rider dangling out the back. They’ve really turned up the heat here.
Uh other groups, I can’t even see them. They’re super far behind right now unless we got some data
issues going on. All depends how they descend. Yeah, this is great. This is awesome. Uh let’s
jump to the yellow jersey group here. Kim Lort. So in this group right here, I’m seeing Pauline,
Demi, Ca Casha, Anna Vanderberen, Paulina Ruacres, Sedine Kerbal. I think this is the rider they said
that almost crashed earlier. Uh, didn’t see any video coverage of it. Evita Music, Juliet Laboose.
Okay, this is expected. Dominica here uh for UAE ADQ and Alen Jansen. Ah, this rider too. I think
she was Wow, if this is real, she’s for Vulkar Vessels. I think she finished third in the sprint
just a few days ago. So, not only can she sprint, she can also climb. Chloe Digger’s here. Wow.
She looks like she’s just dangling off the back, though. Get in there, Chloe. Let’s do it. So, they
technically haven’t caught her yet, but it’s very close. And where the other groups are, they’re
pretty far back now. White jersey is 800 meters back. Ah, here’s that. I was looking down this
valley before. Here, looking for them. There’s a really tight switch back here. I’m going to see
if I can find it. Um. Ooh, the green jersey. Are they really that far back? The green jersey is
still under the descent. They’re a ways back, guys. They are a ways back right now. Okay, back
to the front. Lee Shabby, she’s just dangling out front right now. Uh, there’s the Pelaton. So,
she’s still attacking hard. She’s just going to keep pushing and hopefully that they dial it
back. Uh, does Shabi have teammates here? She’ll have Demi here. She’s got Demi Volering here.
And who else does she have? So, I think she’s only got one teammate here. No, Avita Music’s
here as well. So, Avita is for FDJ as well. Oh, and Juliet Laboose. Okay, guys. I need to
go check something. Are they all there as you guys do that? I’m going to come over here and
hopefully we don’t get punted out. FDJ Suez. Yeah, Loose is there. Music’s there. Yes, that is
correct. So, okay, let it reset. Yeah, guys, I went away too long. I think you can go away
for about 15 20 seconds. Uh, leading group. Okay. What was that all about? Okay, so
is that another rider there? Uh, let me just get figured out here, guys. Leading
group. So, yeah, they caught up with her now. So, they’re with her now. There. I thought
maybe they might try to slow the group down, giving her a chance to escape. That
didn’t happen, though. with her teammates said there. They could have tried to slow
down that chasing group, but their honor. 693 meters back, 700 meters back to the white
jersey group. Saying it’s 5 kilometers back to the green jersey group. So, they were so far up
over the top of that hill and down the other side, descending like at 70 80k an hour.
As the green jerseys still climbing, the gaps are going to open real
quick. Let’s stick with this group for now as I do the chat catch up.
168 watching, guys. Thank you so much. Uh, okay. Yeah, Dreams in here. Caribel, the best
descender out there. Yeah, they said she was like full blast downhill. Yeah, Cash is another
incredible descender. I’ve seen her in action. It’s like, wow. Okay, having a quick look here at
Leanne Leapert. She would have been in that front break all day long. Uh, shout out to back now,
guys. So, Leon Leapert should be showing up here. I don’t think she is yet. So, that’s the head of
the course. Strange seeing the yellow jersey again cuz I haven’t been there all day. But, there’s the
yellow jersey. There’s the polka dot jersey. All the GC’s here, guys. Um, just a replay again.
I’m just trying to see what they’re showing on replay here. Oh, AG Sudall riders just kind of
one’s tapping the other on the back. I think this one’s taking off out the back now. Saying
I’m done again. Domestique could be a sprinter. And now it’s time to decipher the helmets. Okay,
Kim’s easy to spot today with the yellow jersey. Visma rider coming back up now. Looks like she
fallen back a little bit. Let’s have a look here. Yeah, this front group is very select right
now. Probably about 3 kilometers to the top. Let’s see. Yeah, that looks so good, doesn’t it?
And remember, there’s actually another what they would call categorized climb. You can It is You
will find it as a categorized climb. Let’s go back to this group here to get the data reset. Yeah, I
can see there’s a real crazy data dump right now. You can see it going on there. I’ll jump out
of this now, guys, till it resets. Oh, guys, I just did it again. I just did it again. I don’t
know why I was on that uh thing there. Yep. Sorry, lady boss. I apologize. I’ve been watching them
again the whole time and I’ve had that wrong thing on screen. I apologize again. Uh, okay. So,
we’re gonna stick in Bike Terror now. Lady boss, I’ve had bike terror on the whole time on my
screen, but not displaying it for you guys. I’ve been doing this too many days straight, guys. Uh,
from what I’m seeing here on the video right now, slightly delayed. Let’s get the delay time on
this figured out. Uh, we do have one rider off front right now, Squibban. So, that was showing
up before. I did see that on Bike Terra. So, on Bike Terra, they were showing Squiban here
for UAE going off the front. Uh, and again guys, I was trying to jump away. That’s the only reason
I caught this because I can see there’s some weird patchy data coming through. I think Squibban’s
data is good. The speed she’s traveling here. Uh, 6% gradient, 17K an hour. Then we’re going to
jump to the yellow jersey group. Here’s Kim Laort. Their speed’s just too low. So, different
groups are getting data dumps put through. There is one rider off the front right now. What I’ll
do just until I know this gets settled down again. I will go back here. I’m not going to forget
this time to show this to you. Why are we Ah, that’s why. Because we were looking at the
team. Just trying to get riders figured out. Live tracking here. We can watch the bubbles
for a bit until uh tour to France cleans his data up. Here it is. Here. Group one. Mava. Ah,
yes. I’ve seen this rider early in the race, too. She made a huge effort to bridge up to I
think three or four riders. She might have bridged up to the Allison Jackson group that one day.
She’s attacking hard up the 7% gradient here. Oo, they’re going to want to catch her. She’s
going to be stealing some points here, folks. Riders are slowly working their way
back on to the yellow jersey group. Seen the Live Rider come up, Visma Lisa bike rider, and
a Labbor Uscad rider coming back up now. So, nice switch backs here. I’m going to check
to see if we can get bike terror going again. I almost need like something that’s going to
flash on my screen. Colin, pay attention. You’re not showing it. Uh, this looks pretty good now,
I would believe. Yep, we’re looking good now, guys. We’re going back into Bike Terra. I
apologize. I’m meaning to show it to you. Uh, and I’m forgetting to put it in my OBS. So,
you should be seeing it now. Yes, you are. It should be popping up on my YouTube. Remember
my YouTube stream is delayed even for me. Uh Dante drag back on the Pelon. Thanks Colin for all
the early mornings. Dude, I’ve been killing it. Killing it. Getting up early, but I like getting
up early. It’s when I exist. I’m a I’m an early morning person. I want to get my bike ride done
early. I want to get things done early. Come 7:00 at night, I turn into a pumpkin. So, it’s just
how it is. Uh Maya Squean here has got a 250 meter lead over the GC group. They’re going to be coming
around that corner real quick. And guys, ooh, nice switch back coming here. Take a look at that. We
will be able to see them. So, as she’s going this way, we might be able to see them in the distance.
Yeah, I see them already. You guys can see them real quick. I I’m constantly fighting the camera
movement there. Uh let’s go back to Kim Laort here. So, they’re going to be coming up through
here around that corner in the distance and moving up on the right hand side of the screen. Just
going to stick with them for a second here. Get caught up here. Again, guys, sorry for the goof
ups there. Uh, but that’s the allnatural part. There’s nothing fancy here in the background. Fake
images in the background. This is how it should be done. Uh, might be totally wrong. This is Andy
Gagante for the stage. Kim and yellow. Okay. Poker remains the same. Green debatable. Okay, Andy. I
like that. Uh, it’s fine. Yeah, we can tell. Lol. Okay. I’m not sure what she’s talking about there.
Lady boss saying, “Yeah, we can tell. Probably I’m brain dead.” I don’t know. Uh, either way,
all good. The autoboost is the big groups that form. Yeah. Or the groupto as we like to call it.
Following in group three. Uh so we got a leading group of Squibban just her by herself and Demi
Volering here is actually a Khloe Digert’s there Fisher Black Juliet Laboose Avita Music Caribal
Puck Peters Sarah Gagante. I’m gonna have to go look guys. Uh third group on the road. Yeah, it’s
saying third group on the road is Demi Vallering. Uh when did that happen? So, probably in the time
that I went upstairs for nature break. Okay, guys. We’re gonna have to figure out what Demi is here.
She’s gonna have to put some real work in now. Is it really that far? Oh, that looks
like that same switch back. Okay. Yeah, she’s third group on the road. Uh, Demiol Cash
is back there, too. Anna Vanderbran. Guys, hang on a second. I’m going to jump out here for a
minute. I want to make sure data is good. I’ll get you the the most recent data I can. Stage six,
so we don’t need to be in there. Front group, Squibban by herself. Second group, uh Pauline’s
there. Ruachers, Kim, Lort, Gagante, Puck Peters. Here she comes. Shab’s been there all day. Juliet
Laboose. Yep. Khloe Digert’s there. There’s no Demi following here. Leanne Liippard’s there. That
was original break. Silky Smolders, a breakaway rider. It’s the third group. Casha and Demi. Okay,
they just vanished. Okay, they’re floating around somewhere here, guys. See if we can get this
tracker figured out. I think they’re in this third group here. Actually, I think they’re in
between. Bego, Venke, Ryu, and Hangabold are here. And this is that switchback I was showing
you earlier. So, they might be they’re probably just dangling off the back. And uh they’re going
to be coming back on, although I don’t see them. So, what I’m going to do, who’s on screen
here? That’s They can’t be that far back. So, they’re not saying they’re in the third group.
They’re not saying they’re in the second group, but that’s not definitive yet. No demiing,
no cash here. Okay, let’s see what the stream is saying that they might actually tell
us here. Squibband’s alone in the lead. Le Shab. Yeah, they’re not telling us anything,
guys. I I have no help there for you. Green Jersey group. I’ll go this. There’s no way they’re
back here. There’s impossible. This group is so far back right now. They’re 9 minutes off the
front. Uh so I think Demi Volering and Casha are somewhere in between. Uh yeah, they’ll be in
between. Let’s just let it stabilize and figure out what’s going on here. Over the top of the next
climb, uh the descent’s going to be on again. It’s going to be a mad race now. I think there’s going
to be a lot of risk takingaking going on here because when you get to the bottom, it’s going
to kick up. I’ll get this reloaded for you here, guys. Yellow jersey group. I’m looking for Demi
right now on screen. I’m looking for Casha on screen. Hard to tell because the group is quite
large now. And we’ll get this figured out, guys. Okay, so now we’re turn. Okay, we didn’t want
the black screen, but there we go. Did that in the wrong order. get back into bite terror. Let’s
see what’s going on. Here is Mayba Squaban. She’s got like a 750 meter lead because she’s already
on the descent. Now, if you look at the profile on the bottom of the screen, that’s our finish line,
that dashed line right there. So, how it works on Ber here, the dash line is kind of going to mirror
what came before. So, you can see the dash line, it looks the same on each side. And then there’s
another climb. That’s exactly the climb right now, but we’re going on the downhill. It’s just
showing you reverse because at the dash line, you could turn around and just retrace what you
already did. So, mirror image, you’ve already done this flying downhill here. Maybe go solo breakaway
artist. I love it. Absolutely love this. Uh, Elise here. I think they’re just at the top now. Just
starting the descent. I’m not seeing Demiy’s name. I’ve not seen Demiy’s name there. So, data
points. Where’s Cash at? Where’s Demi? Does anyone know? Uh, I’m going to have to look
at the group here. I’m looking for yellow helmets. There’s one FDJ rider there, but
that’s not cash. That’s not Demi. Okay. Uh, yeah. Uh, can’t see those three in G2.
Anna Vanderberg and Cash or Demi. Yeah, I can’t see them anywhere right now, guys. I’m
looking. Success with Mr. Chararma. Squaban one. Definitely, dude. You never know. You never know.
She’s off the front right now. She’s descending. Oh, yeah. Uh, early bird talk. I’d love to get up
at 4:00 every day and maybe in bed by 8, maybe 9, 9:30. I go, you know, head to bed, put some
podcasts on. Really don’t watch TV anymore at that point. Uh, where’s Voss? Uh, this is Billy
Gavino. Uh, I’ll look her up soon. She fell off on the first climb, so she’ll be lose a lot of
time today. Uh, Dream saying they are G2 now. So, they’re in group two now. Yeah, just trying to see
where they’re going to show up, guys. I will jump back here quickly and see if I can see it. Puck
Peter’s there. Okay, what I’ll do is I’m going to turn this off. I’m going to come back in here
again now because otherwise it’ll stall out and it’ll look goofy. I don’t want it to look goofy.
Um, so it’s saying there’s 21 riders in this group. Kim Laort, Pauline, Ruachers, Gagante,
Peters, Carbal, Shabi, there’s Juliet Leoo, Khloe Digert, Leapert. So this is saying they’re
not in group two. Group three is 147 down. It’s not saying they’re there either. So Cashasha, Demi
Volering, and Anna Vanderbergen have just vanished off the face of the earth, guys. I’ll put it
in map mode here. You can see all the groups that are forming over the top of that category 2.
Uh Squeeban took those points. Shabby fought for her polka dot jersey. So she’s got the polka dot
jersey for another day. Six days straight, guys. Uh Gigante and Anna. So there Anna Vanderberg is
showing now. there, but she’s not showing up in these groups. Looking at it here now. Yeah,
she’s not showing up in any of these groups. Yeah. So, something’s going on with the
transponders. It’s just it is what it is, guys. But yeah, we got 161 people watching
right now, guys. Take one second of your life, hit that little thumbs up button. Take another
second and hit the bell button and possibly two more seconds. Subscribe to the channel if you can.
Let’s keep this uh independent commentary going, guys. Okay, guys. Uh let me catch on. Demi next
to Gajante. She looks huge. Maybe Sarah just very small. I think Sarah’s very small. Uh okay. So,
here’s some good uh Dan, Ummani, Demi Volering, and Vanderbring are between the yellow jersey
group and the white jersey group. Okay, good to know. So, looking at the map here
right now, they’re somewhere in here, guys. It’s not showing up. Let’s go back to
We got some nice switchbacks to show you here, guys. I want to show you this. Make sure
I’m showing you the right thing. Okay, I will do this. Here’s Squiban up front. I love
this. Uh, we saw Mava go on an attack earlier in the week. Solo getaway breakaway
artist here. Did that wrong again. So, here’s Mava out front. It says she’s a 1.3
km lead. I’m watching Fisher Black come back here. Also a leadel trek rider there. So, I don’t
know where Demi lost contact where Cash Law Well, it would have been on the descent. And that
surprises me because I know Cash is a really good descender. Here’s that switch back we’re
talking about right now, guys. There’s a series of them here before we go back into this town.
So, speed’s going to drop from 70. Going to drop right down. Speed’s getting scrubbed off
here. Little bit of delay for the data coming through. Elise Shab chasing hard again. We got
bonus points. Bonus time coming up, too, guys. uh at the next climb, the next bump on the
screen in the bottom of the profile. 64 and 2 seconds available. 72k an hour here for
the front rider. Yellow jersey group and Demi Cashia. Last two champions are wedged
in between these groups here. I don’t know if there was like something happened on the
road. Uh, the fact that they’re not here. Well, see what that does to the race. Sarah Gagant
is here. Kim Laort’s still here. Puck Peters is here. Loving this. Uh, we’ll jump back to
Elise here. And I think if I look at this, yeah, we’re coming up to that same switch back I was
telling you guys about. Here’s this really hard left-hand switch back. We start heading into town.
And there’s another couple of little switchbacks just tucked right in there. So we we’re going
to see them come around this corner here scrubbing off all the speed. And then you can see
there’s going to be more switchbacks coming up. Yeah. So I think when I have secret camera mode,
uh I’ll have more control to just keep my camera in one spot and watch them come through. Right
now you can see the camera’s kind of chasing them through these switchbacks which is really helpful
but at times I want control of it. So yeah, here’s the switchbacks are coming through heading
into this town here running alongside the town actually. Uh they’re going to just quickly
pop through it and keep going. So that’s the location of them back to the front. Maya’s still
giving her. Yeah, watching the video feed too. You can see how we lose track of riders. A group of
12 becomes like ones and twos. Just one corner, you hit one patch of gravel. Uh you’re going
to slow down. You’re just going to sit up for a second. Whoa. I didn’t crash. Thank you.
I’m still upright. And next thing you know, there’s a 50 m gap. That’s how it happens.
So, we’re still hanging here. Wow. Boom. Guys, we hit my dream for this year’s uh Tour to France.
Fe AZ Zift. 204 PE people watching right now. You guys are the best. Thank you for making this
channel happen, guys. Uh, okay. Uh, the Dutch have gone. Yeah, the Dutch have gone stealth. Exactly.
Where’s Voss? Okay, dude. That’s Mark. Uh, dude, I’m going to go find her here quick. I think
it should show the Voss group. I think Voss is a long ways back right now. It’s going
to take me a while to figure that out. So, Squibban over the Oh, they did get points for
the call to Oh, that was the last one. That was the call to transfer. Quebubang got the first.
Squibban got the first points. Shabby Giggante, Anna Vanderbran. So Vandergan’s in there, guys.
She’s just not showing up. I don’t know why. Jumping back to the second group here. Elise
Shab’s group. We’ll move back further. Here’s the white jersey group. Uh Elen Yansen here in the
white jersey group. Climbing again, guys. We got the green jersey group back here. Lena Vibz. Oh,
a lot of pop in there, guys. This happens as the browser figures out where it is. Is this really
how far back they are? Wow, that seems like almost really far back. Mava taking uh she’s just pulling
out all the cards here, guys. Pulling out all the cards. Flying through town. Ma is determined
to win this stage. Determined to win it, guys. I’m going to fly back to the front here. Show you
Maya on the move here. She’s absolutely screaming downhill here. Uh I just saw 80 something K an
hour. The camera bike here that I’m watching to had 75k an hour flying down these hills. Little
small buildings on either side of her. There’s no padding. You make one mistake, you’re out. That’s
it. Uh she’s got a huge lead on them right now. Just going to jump back for a second over here
for time checks again and confirm some stuff that I’m watching here. Yeah, that’s right guys.
The green jersey group has not got over this this last climb here. They’re not even there yet. Uh
so I was seeing that on bike terror. So between the front end that’s Maya Squibban to the green
jersey group it’s 13 minutes. So they are not over the call to chancer yet. So, let’s see if we can
find Maryanne Voss quick. I think she’s probably back in this green jersey group or on the descent
solo right now. Here’s the white jersey group. I’m going to go to these bubbles here quickly.
Okay, so yeah, they’ve came out of what I called the crazy switchbacks here before that town yellow
jersey group here. They’re still not showing up. No Vanderbergen. Uh, no Cashia. No Demi.
Not showing up yet, guys. They’re in there somewhere. Here’s Mava by herself. Epic
ride. Mava. Here’s the bonus time coming up, too. How is Mava sitting overall? So, Mava is
36 overall. Let’s check her record out. Uh, make sure I’m showing this to you guys. I am
showing this to you guys. Uh, look at this. Slowly moving up through the stands. Consistently moving
up. Great to see fourth in the polka dots at the moment as well. So, we will close that there.
And I’m just going to sit here for a second, get my situation figured out. We got Yoki
here asking where’s Voss? I still haven’t find her. Ryoko asking where’s Voss? I have
no idea where she is right now out there. Uh, Gokim, all Mitians are with is it Maitians or
Moritanians? I guess it’s Maicians. I I guess I said I’ve screwed that up so many times.
Not MH. Go Kim. Go Kim. Michael Sigman from Green Jersey Group on a driving Miss Davies.
Totally. Michael. Steven Kangi asking where is Kim? She’s right at the front, dude. Uh she’s
in second place here now, guys. Let’s go back to bike terror now so I can get things figured out
here. Kim’s looking really good right now, guys. Looking really good. She is in the second group
on the road. There’s only one rider out front. One rider up front. Turn that on. Flip that
dude off. Coming around for a 709er, as we like to say over here. I don’t even know what
that means. Uh, this is how I entertain myself, guys. I love this. This is so much fun. Sorry I
can’t answer all your questions. Demi is somewhere She’s somewhere between the white jersey and the
green jersey. Sorry. The white jersey and chase group two. Uh Mava, I hope she gets a stage win.
Mava is kind of like a nonissue right now. Uh it’s the second group. Kim’s there. Pauline’s there.
Sarah Gagante. Uh Juliet Leus, Paulina Ruacres. This is the GC group here. So Mava’s up front. I’m
cheering for her to win. Cheering for her to win right now. Second group on the road. Maybe it’s
less than 20. It’s probably about 20 riders. 20 riders. Looking hard to figure out all the riders
here, guys. Again, it’s helicopter shots. I see dark jerseys with yellow helmets. I’m not sure who
they are. Are they Vizma? Are they FDJ? Hard to tell from here. Yeah, probably 20 riders in this
group chasing her right now. Let’s have a little look out here into the countryside. See which
way we’re going. Anyone behind us showing up yet? Yep. Squabano out front for UAE ADQ team grabbing
a quick bottle from the team car. Actually, she didn’t. She doesn’t want a sticky bottle,
guys. She’s strong by herself. No cheating here, folks. Uh, very lumpy through here as well. Very
lumpy. Uh, let’s get her location right now. Uh, it’s under 700 meters from that chasing group of
the absolute hitters. to MA. So guys, cheering for MA here. Uh she’s got a little bit to go though.
It looks like we’re Okay, that was a replay. Definitely. Okay, what are we looking at there? Uh
we’re zooming in on her bike for some reason. Oh, it’s just the instructions on her bike. You know,
they tape them on the the handlebars sometimes. Right around 200 people watching. Thanks so much,
everyone. Uh Niagara, so cool to watch Bike Terra and the race on the TV screen. Yeah, Anna, it’s
fantastic having bike terror to do this. Uh, so this is Mava solo by herself. Here she is right
here. They got her in a white jersey. She rides in a whitish generally white jersey. Okay. Seeing
attacks go up. Okay, hang on a second here. This is the yellow jersey group. Uh, two AG insurance
Sudal riders off the back. Not Kim, though. So, she’s got two teammates here. Uh Kim’s further
up the road, really attentive to the moves. Elise Shab sitting on the front now. I’m seeing the
FDJ riders here. I’m seeing three FDJ riders. I’ve got them eyeballed in, folks. Uh so we got
Elise there. We’ve got three riders in black jerseys with the yellow helmets with the black
in the slots. You can see them plain as day here. Let me zoom in. Let me zoom in on this. I need to
see who’s here. 5% gradient through this section. May is out front by herself. I’ll jump back over
here to Elise. Uh gap’s coming down slowly. 600 meters between the groups. They’re still
climbing there. And where is Maya? I’m just getting a ballpark. I’m looking at the map in the
bottom right corner. I’m going to zoom in a bit, guys. Pretty technical here. Like we are
climbing again. Definitely climbing, guys. Uh bonus seconds at the top here. I think they’re
going to fight hard for these bonus seconds. Nadia Gontoya here now. Where is where are they?
We’ll go back to MA here. Looks like some data issues again. Yeah. So, Anna uh from the Niagara
region. This is the only platform that can do this. I just want to point that out to everyone.
So, I watched a podcast a few days ago on YouTube and they were like, “Why aren’t the other ones
doing this?” Because they can’t. They can’t. They’re closed world. Uh, Swift. And guys, I love
all the platforms. I’m not picking on a platform. I’m just being unbiased. Okay, look at this here.
Uh, FDJ Rider sitting on the front here. I just need to see their faces. Juliet Laboose on the
front right now, guys. 13th overall for FDJ Suez. I think Demiy’s in there. That’s kind of my guess.
She has to be. She must be the third rider on course there. Uh, bit delayed, but Maya Squibban
has gone through the 15 km marker. It’s going to be less than that in real world right now. All the
other platforms that I like to ride, uh, they’re closed worlds. El Shab shelled out the back, guys.
She’s done her day. She’s done her day. She’s got the polka dot jersey. She’s absolutely solo right
now. Probably riding 15k an hour, recovering, and then we’ll be accelerating again. Uh, bonus time.
That’s right, Robert. 64 and two seconds at that bonus, which is actually Here’s a canyon rider as
well. Uh, it’s actually a climb. If you looked up that place on one of the climb finding apps, they
give that a coat to whatever it’s called. Uh, the bonus point times has a name. It’s the same
name as the climb. Live riders hanging out the back here. Wow, that’s pretty cool. See, I think
we have a Windspace rider in this front group as well. Who is that? Who is the Windspace rider in
that front group? Uh, I think their team name gets I think Oh, yeah. It’s Windspace Orange Seal. So,
WS Nadia Gontova. So, good to see uh smaller team riders up here. And when I say smaller team,
I don’t mean they’re small, but they probably are small. I mean the team smaller budget,
smaller budget teams. That’s all I mean by that. Although generally these riders are smaller.
Uh yeah, riders falling out the back now, guys. It’s going to get smaller and
smaller. Polka dot jersey. Okay, Anner Vanderberg is finally showing up. Okay, good
to see this here. Anna Vanderberen is with the polka dot jersey. That’s Alicia Shabi. It says
she’s 800 meters back. Rian Marcus Usoa Oloa. So they’re back here chasing 6% gradient coming
up the side of these hills. Bouncing forward, we’ve got the Kim Court Group. Kim
Lort, incredible, really strong ride. Kim Lort in number one right now. Yellow jersey
GC contenders sitting on the front. Uh she’s got three FDJ riders directly in front of her.
Yeah, FDJ Suez riders. Uh and then I think that’s Cashia there. I think that’s Cashia
right there. It’s She’s in the white jersey, Polish champion jersey. She’s hard to identify
from a distance. Uh Canyon Rider, right? Canyon. Yeah, someone will tell me. Uh, I think Cashia is
directly behind Demi right now. That’s my guess. I will do this again. We’re going to come back
here and see if they’re going to highlight them now if they’ve got more data for us. So, this
is where we’re at, guys. Mava’s going for these uh bonus points here and stage win. Trying
her best. So, here’s our one rider up front, Mava Squibban for UAE. Here’s our chase group. 23
riders, Gagante, Reacers, Ru Acres, uh Kim Laort, Peters, Juliet Laboose, Khloe Digert, Justine.
This is Justine right here for AG Insurance. Still not showing Demi here. Here is uh the
Windspace. Oh, she’s a Canadian, too. I don’t know how. Like honestly guys, I’m not I’m not trying to
show Canadians, but I was just talking about her. Wind space orange uh seal rider Nadia Kontova.
So, she’s hanging in that front group. So, really, really good job by her. Then we’ve got uh Anna
Vanderberg’s finally showing up now. Cashia and Demi aren’t, but I think that’s Cashia there.
So, let’s just have a quick look. I’m not going to destroy this this time, guys. I need to look
at this jersey. Yeah. So, Casha wears the white jersey. Polish jerseys champion. Uh I think she’s
sitting right behind the three FDJ riders right now. That’s what I’m seeing on screen over here.
Camera’s never getting close to them. Uh generally because they’re in the trees. There’s one camera
motorbike with a Squiban up front. So, that’s what we got figured out here. Demiy’s in that front
group as far as I can tell. Cash is in that front group as far as I can tell. Anna is a little bit
further back. It’s still not showing us that. And again, not by terror showing us that. That’s the
data we get from the tour to France. So, here’s our group. It’s 500 meters up to Mabis Goan. So,
it’s slowly coming down, guys. Slowly coming down. Let’s see. Okay, that’s a little bit too far
back now. We’re going to come to Kim Lort here and we’re just going to go into a little bit of
a overhead view here. Follow along with them. Uh, yep. Here we go. Come on, Kim. Everyone’s cheering
for Kim here. I’m really impressed by her. Shabby got dropped. That’s right. From David. Demi is in
group two as is Anna. Uh, Vanderberen and Cashia. Okay, once I get back to the video here feed here.
I thought FDJ I thought Demi was sitting in third and I believe Casha was sitting right behind her.
Yeah, second group. Yellow jersey group I think is what you mean. Uh yeah, same thing. Uh Versos,
Billy Gavino, I have not found Voss yet. I think she’s quite a ways back. Lena Vibes is probably
10 minutes back right now. So yeah, right now currently on video I have three FDJ riders
driving the front hard. Juliet Laboose still on the front. Demi looks like she’s in third. Uh
Cash is in fourth. Kim Laort right on her wheel. And there’s a good another mixture of about 10 12
riders back behind them. So Juliet Loose here on a 5% gradient. So that’s this group right here,
guys, that you’re watching now. There’s Kim Laort in her yellow jersey. There’s probably a few other
riders that aren’t getting populated in here. Just data. Head of the course again. Mava Scuban. We’ll
bounce back to Mava. It’s under 500 meters. Now, let’s have a look at some of the topography here.
So, remember these buildings because I will jump back. I’m looking at the map, too. Trying to
remember where I am. So, there’s going to be quite a good left-hand bend here into town. Okay.
And then a long straightaway there. Okay. Before we go, Pelaton’s just going to is Pelaton’s
just lurking back here somewhere right now. So, we’ll go back to Pauline here. And there’s
that town up ahead. I’m trying to show you through the trees here. There. That’s as far as I can zoom
out at this point till I get my stuff figured out. Uh, yeah, she’s just ahead of them in that town
up the road. They’re still climbing. She’s on the flatter section. She’s going to pull away for a
little bit here. Uh, where’s Demi? Think she’s in She’s in the group two, yellow jersey group, right
now. is just not showing up on the tracker. Uh cash is not showing up on the tracker either, but
I can see them on video. How much farther to the finish line? We’re probably about 10k out right
now. I can tell you that really quick. Uh ah I did it again. So sorry, guys. I’m supposed to be doing
that every time. That’s where we’re at. That’s what you’re This is the town I keep talking about.
They’ve just came through the town now. There’s a lefthand bend and kind of a long straightaway.
That’s where Maya was coming through before. I’m kind of flip-flopping back and forth too
much. So, Mava is now 800 meters ahead of them. Let’s jump up to her. And yeah, that’s
on there. I need to reposition this so I can see what I’m streaming all the time a little
bit easier. Okay, there we go. I kind of had what I’m streaming at the very top and I
miss it. Uh, yeah, Lady Boss, sorry again. I need you to like flash something. Lady boss,
please feel free to use capitals. Just capitalize everything so I can see it. Uh, time bonuses.
They went through the time bonuses. Maya would have gotten 6 seconds. I think Kim Laort got 4
seconds possibly. It was a white whitish jersey. I think maybe Casha got two seconds there.
Let’s get that figured out, guys, after this. Uh let’s take a look here. Yeah, it’s flattish and
we start our descent. So time bonuses, Squibbang got first. Exactly. So guys, I am actually
watching this. I am actually watching this. Squibbang got first. Kim Lor got second. Cash got
third for time bonuses there. So time bonus out on screen. Sorry about this. It’ll resync right away.
There you go. Uh one kilometer in front. So Mave has gotten away again on the descent. So, she’s
running for the border, as I like to call it, guys. Uh, I am showing this here. Let’s make sure
this is all going. Yep, we are following that. Okay. Yeah, desync there as I was showing that
as I jumped out, I could see it was playing. And again, guys, I’m kind of in the future in the
past. Uh, I’m watching a delayed stream of myself. I’m watching a slightly delayed video trying
to read all the stuff here. Let’s go, riders. Let’s go. Yeah, lady boss, please capitalize
just to get my attention. Uh, you know, I’m thinking I’m going to have a tablet up on
like a screen so I can see it right in my face. Maybe that’s the way to do it. I wouldn’t mind
having looking at that and having a tablet right beside it so I just read off it the whole time.
So, I’m looking at everything in the same place. Okay, Alvo, we’re try trying to find Marian
Boss. I think she’s well out the back now, dude. Well, out the back. Can we see Marann Boss?
I’m going to have to go search for it. Just give me a second. Puck looking frisky today. Yeah,
Puck is in this group from what I remember. Uh, guys, it’s it’s splintering now. It’s
already splintered on the descent here. Uh, some of the riders that are a little bit more
afraid of descending, taking less risks. Okay, so just hang on with the data here for a second,
guys. It’s bouncing around right now. We can see you can see it on screen happening. What I’ll do
is I’m going to come back here just till this uh settles down. Don’t let me forget though. So,
we’re back here for now. Going to come in here. We’ll look at the bubbles for a second quickly.
Uh so, yeah, we went to the bonus points. We did I did see Kim take second place. May have got
first. Let’s see what they’ve got here. Ooh, Juliet Laboose. Is she really solo? That’s not
possible. Uh yeah, guys, the yellow jersey is not back here. The yellow jersey is already through
that bonus point. I’m going to sync this data up again. Tour to France has the data completely
wrong. Uh they’re all through that bonus point right now. Juliet Laboose is riding solo. Uh I’m
watching video here. The yellow jersey group, which is showing to be like a kilometer and a half
behind, is about 100 meters behind her. So Juliet Laboose on the attack in 13th place overall.
Yeah, maybe 100, maybe 150 meters, something like that. Uh Mava still on the run. We’ll see
it here. Uh she’s got 8.2 km to go, guys. Uh then you’ve got Juliet Laboose for FDJ. And then
it’s 5 seconds back to Kim Laort, Pauline, Demi, Volering finally showing up. Cashia, Neodoma
there, guys. I knew they were there the whole time. I could see them on camera. I just couldn’t
see their faces close enough. But to see two FDJ riders driving the group, I’m like, you know,
Demiy’s there. They’re not going to drive that group if Demiy’s out the back. So, and when I saw
the white jersey with the red band in the middle, I’m like, this has to be Casha there. The cameras
aren’t zooming in. It’s heavily forested here. There’s a lot of motor uh helicopter coverage
here. Uh yeah, Dawn. Exactly. Where’s Maryanne Boss? For me to find her right now, it’s going to
take a little bit. Change the screen. Dude wants the screen changed. Uh, dude, uh, Bolivar Bolivar.
Do you want to see Bike Terra? Answer me that. If it’s Bike Terra you want, it’s Bike Terra
you’re getting. But yeah, let me know how much you like Bike Terra whilst you’re here. Bolivar
Boulevard, you look brand new here. Please like the channel, guys. We’re rocking right now.
drop some uh fun comments about Bike Terrier Air because I know the dudes read it. I know
they’re they’re watching and I’m glad to talk about it. Uh up a up top here, I’m seeing uh Kim
will try to win the stage today. Oh, absolutely, dude. It’s flattish through here. This isn’t
really that hard. It’s it’s a short section, 5 to 6% and then we bomb downhill. Bomb. That’s
why Juliet’s taken off. Uh just watching the gaps here. Okay. Uh, Stephen Kangi, can the yellow
jersey catch the escape group? Uh, I think Mava might be able to stay away here. Maybe. Let’s see
where she is on course, guys. So, here’s Mava. Maya’s on the descent, guys. Mava’s or they won’t
catch her now. She’s going to be bombing downhill uh at 60 70k an hour. Juliet Laboose is just at
the top of the climber now. She’s the flat area. She’s going to start descending now. They’re
going to descend at roughly the same speed. So, probably can’t catch her. The yellow
jersey group’s even further back. Uh, but out of this group here, you got to think that
Kim Lort KLCP is the the fastest sprinter. And in this group we got Pauline, Demi Volerin,
Casha, Paulina Rayaker, Rue Cakers, Ruacres, Sarah Gagante, Puck Peters, Caribal, Eva,
Barbara Malikatti, Mavi Garcia again. Yes, Marvy, Mavi Garcia. Oldest rider in the race.
I already remember that guys. Won a stage a few days ago for Liv Alula Jacobo. Love it. And I did
see a couple riders just floating off the back. Looks like the polka dot jersey is trying to
get back on. Elise is here. Anna Vanderberren, uh, Rian Marcos and Uso Usoa Oto Laza. Wow. So
good. Mava’s like I call it guys running for the border. She’s not going 120k an hour. Uh, she’s
probably going very fast. That’s just data dumps to us from the tour to France site, but it’ll
give you an idea of what the runin’s like. It’s all downhill. Downhill. It’s going to be a tiny
bit and one little last kicker at the finish. So, let’s just stick here. Juliet Lewis, how far
back is she? Okay, I’m just looking at some landmarks here to pick out this big field and then
we’ll get a feeling as to where the rest are. So, that big field on the uh right hand side, we’re
on the side of a hill. Here’s the Kim Laort group. Let’s just hang here with these riders. Let the
camera do its thing. We can see the chase group trying to come back on. Uh I’ll jump into the
chat here, guys. Am I actually showing this? I am showing this. Thank you. Uh, dude. Yeah.
Bolivar. Bolivar. Please tell me how much you like Bike Terra. Uh, time cut off today looks
to be 30 to 35 minutes. Okay, that’s something important. Once we see the finish line, we’ll
see who might be in jeopardy of that time cut. Yeah, pretty awesome descent here, guys. Awesome
descent. And I want to watch Maya get back to the front. They don’t want Assira has a gigant a
gigante motor. Exactly. They don’t want Kim to get bonus points. So yeah, there’s again there’s 10,
six, and four points avail time seconds available at the finish. So they want uh Juliet to get
up the road and steal some of that time away from Kim. Khloe Dyer is in the back of this group,
the very front group. Uh she was here before. So, when I say the very front group, there’s two
riders up front. Mab is on a breakaway. Juliet’s going up front chasing. Uh, as someone said here,
they want her to steal points. This is Dream. They want Juliet to get up there to absorb some of the
time bonuses. Uh, so that no one else can tape and keep Demi closer. Uh, Voss, no chance for top
10. Not today, dude. She’s too too far behind. Uh, Khloe, I think, is in this group. I can’t see
her name on the screen yet, but they all can’t be displayed in this Pelaton group here. Uh, they
need another writer to escape to get third. Yeah, well, there are they are here. So, Demi’s here.
Uh, who else could jump up the road right now? Uh, we got a Vita Music here. I thought there was
another one for I’d have to jump back to the other view to figure that out. I can probably
do that really quick. Here’s Ma. I will do that really quick. I need to check some uh Mava’s
got 2.6 kilometers to go guys to the finish. So, looks like Mava is going to get a stage win here.
Absolutely hammering right now. Uh James Anderson, dude, thank you so much. James Anderson
comes through. Enjoy a few double doubles, Colin. Thanks again for your enthusiastic
commentary. Keep it up, dude. Thank you so much for being the man supporting the channel. I
really appreciate it, dude. Really appreciate it. keeps the channel going, gets me focused. Like
I said, today I’m going to get a new arm here for my microphone because the arm is kind of
like the cheapest one I could find on Amazon to be honest. So, I think we’re going to do an
upgrade. I think we’ve deserved an upgrade here, guys. Uh James, thank you so much. Uh you’re
part of the upgrade to the studio. Yeah, if they could get someone else up front. Juliet Lewis is
absolutely drilling it, guys. Drilling it. flying around corners at 65 to 70k an hour off the back.
Oh, Sergeante taking it a little bit safer around these corners. She’s drifting away from that group
right now. So, Juliet Lewis here, Mava’s out up front. You can see on the bottom of the screen
here, too. Mava’s just got a few corners left, guys. Going into this town of Amber. She’ll
be taking a couple left corners and she gets a stage win at the 2025 Tour to France FEMA Zift.
Uh, stage win. Stage six. Stage win. Stage six. Uh, Robert saying next year UEIE will get that
lumpy jersey fixed. What’s the lumpy jersey, Robert? I’m missing that one. Okay, I’m watching
Juliet here. Head down drilling. She’s in full time trial mode, guys. She’s got her hands draped
over the brake hoods. You can see that look. She keeps looking down, looking up, looking down. She
just She’s trying to get as arrow as possible and stay away. She’s been sent out on a mission, guys,
to secure that 6second time bonus. All these all these seconds count there. This could determine
the GC later on down the road. Remember last year, uh, it was won by 4 seconds. Closest finished
ever at any tour to France. That includes the men, boys. That includes the men. Uh, Bolivar, Bolivar.
Yes, sir. Jojo’s up and at it, folks. She’s up and at it. Uh, good morning everyone. Leus was
TT, national champ of France in the past. Okay, so they’ve got the perfect person going out ahead.
She’s still holding them off. Juliet Laboose uh is nearing the finish now, guys.
I can’t see the Pelaton behind her, so she’s gone. But I’m going to look at
the map here quickly. If you look in the bottom right and see where they are on the
map. Oh yeah, she’s gone, guys. She’s gone. If that’s if that’s real, she is quite a ways
ahead of them. She absolutely drilled it. Watching uh Mava come in for the finish here. Oh,
awesome. I just here, guys. I’m I’m watching three different screens at once. Uh Bike
Terra, thank you so much for the support, dudes. like Inside Cycling World loves you guys
so much. Uh, thank you so much. Uh, Bike Terra here says, “Some help with the studio upgrade.”
Yeah, dude. I really want an arm. Like right now, it’s like not really moving. I’m fighting it.
Uh, some guys have their mic up here. I don’t like that. I like the mic right here. And I like
to move it around. I like to talk as I lean over. UAE rider Maya Squibban here just doing this to
the crowds. Come on, cheer me on. So, she gets to take a nice victory ride across the finish line
here. Hands in the air, punching the air. Awesome stuff. Okay. Uh, we’re going to bounce back here,
guys. She’s crossed the finish line. Here’s Juliet Lewis coming into town now. Uh, so maybe we’ll
get the 10 seconds. That’s okay. Maya’s not on the hunt for the GC. Uh, Juliet’s got the
engine to get away up there. Steal 6 seconds. Uh, okay. So, Bolivar did say he did like. Thank
you, Bolivar. Uh, you’re commenting. Commenting is awesome, dude. Thank you for have being here. Come
back tomorrow. Uh, make sure you’re watching. Wow, guys. 237 watching. Are you kidding me? Uh,
awesome stuff. I’m glad people are finally finding this. Uh, tour to France fems. Juliet is a strong
climber trying to chase at the head of the course. That’s from uh, looks like eaten here. Joey Jojo
saying thank you. Ooh, the pelon is right on her, guys. Juliet’s just hanging on here. Uh, I’m
going to have to change the view here, guys. Okay, there’s Demi Volering. Hopefully, we get the data
patched up again. It’s It’s trying to reset itself now, guys. What I’m going to do is just call it
here as we try to watch that. Julia Leoose looks like she’s holding on. She’s crossing the finish
line there. Score 6 seconds for FDJ coming across line third. It looks like very, very close between
Kim Lort and Demi Volering. Uh, that looked like a closer finish than yesterday. So, let me just get
times here. I’m going to jump back here, guys. Uh, because I know that stalled out. I’m watching that
in the corner of my eye. Here we go. Stage winner, Maya Squibban. Uh, Juliet Labus gets
third. The distance between Kim Laort and Demi Volering again was probably less than
yesterday. So, Kim Laort does get 4 seconds. Uh, Mavis Guban sending out kisses to the
camera. Seems okay when she does it. I don’t know why when Yonas does it, it kind of bothers me
a little bit. It’s his typical go-to move. We’re going to see Yonas at Levwalta, guys. Uh, we’re
down to what is today? The 31st. We got 23 days to go when we start Lewalt, guys. I’m doing
every second of it. Anything I can show you, we’re doing. Uh, okay. Time to cut off. We got
37 minutes. Let’s have a quick peek at this guys. So yeah, she did secure some points there.
Yeah, it would have been good if they could have got someone else up the road. Okay,
so 3 minutes have already passed. We got a 37 minute cut off here. Okay, so here it is.
I’d love to see the photo finish on this. I’m hopefully I’m going to get it here. Uh Kim Laor
to Demi Volin was probably like 10 centimeters. That’s what I saw. Uh UAE Rider here. I think
that was Cashia there. It just went off screen. UAE pretty happy here. Squan finish.
She’s absolutely dumped everything into this. Her teammates are coming
over. Uh just like bear hugging her, shaking her around. She’s probably like, “Give
me a break. I can barely stand at this point.” Other riders coming in next. We’re going to go
back here and look at the time cut offs. So, it’s 24 minutes back here now. uh to the
Allison Jackson group. These guys have been out the back all day long. This is the groupto
fun ride today. If you can think of this as fun. Here’s a group of 11. Maybe now I can find
Maryanne Boss cuz I don’t know where she is. Green Jersey group. She’s got to be in
this group or somewhere isolated in between. So Viviz is back here uh for SD Works.
Lucinda Brand’s back here. Schwinberger. Uh, where is Maryann Boss? I just don’t
see her again. Could be a tracker thing, guys. There’s Catalina Sodto Campos. These
riders here, I love seeing them. Catalina Sodto Campos and Sarah Martin. Been on a
couple of breakaways together, I think, this tour. So, great to see them riding here
together. We got the white jersey group here, Elen Yansen, Julie Bego. Uh, so I don’t
see Voss out there, guys. She’s out there somewhere. I’m gonna say she’s between. I think
she’s probably with the Green Jersey Group. So, they’re still doing the last climb. So, let’s
see if we can get this figured out here. Uh, I don’t want to miss the chat, guys. I want to get
caught up again. Bike Terror, thank you so much. James Anderson, thank you so much. Uh, I think the
new uh microphone arm’s coming immediately now, guys. And I still want to get some other stuff
set up. So like I’d like to have it so I’m looking at the screen, all the data. I’ve got
my screen up there so that I can see the chat and see what I’m actually doing on screen because
half the time today, guys, I had you on the wrong screen. Uh just the way I’m looking at things
here. Okay. Uh rolling on down. Brilliant win. Breathtaking descend. Yeah, exactly. Robert
Puck Demi Kim, fastest sprint of the bunch. Uh that might have been. So that that’s who I
thought I saw there too. Uh hard name for me to say. Wardic. Looks like probably a Polish name
I would imagine. I did see a Polish rider well up there. And actually maybe that’s who I saw
finish fourth. I think I did see a Polish rider finish fourth. That’s the general ranking. Uh
are they going to show us here? Here’s coming to the finish, guys. Victory punch in the air. Love
it. She’s doing her interviews afterwards. Okay, so I need stage rankings here. That’s what I want
to do. So, let’s get the rankings again. I think it was a Polish writer that finished fourth
today on stage ranking here. Blinded Squaban, Juliet Laboose, Kim Lort, Demi Volering. Okay,
so it was fifth place. Exactly what you’re saying here, Dream. Uh, here’s that rider. The name
I can’t say. Dominica. I can say that name for sure though. Uh yeah, she got fifth place. I just
saw the Polish flag there. Just associated that with the name. Sixth place for Vulkar Vessels
again. Really good seeing them up here. Marggo Van Pakton Beck. Then we got Pauline. Oo, Canadian
rider here. Magdalene Valier. Actually, you know, I think I saw earlier today and she’s just
been zipping in and out of the Pelaton all day. claim back on the descent. Good. Then we got
Polena Ruacres and Puck Peters to round out the top 10 guys. GC, that’s important, isn’t
it? GC after stage six, guys. Actually, there’s a better way for me to do this. I can do
this so I’m not getting blinded. Stage six here. We’ll come to the jerseys over here. It’s just not
as bright. Individual jersey. That’s after stage five. We need stage six. Still saying Kim Laort is
in the lead. Okay, interesting. So it looks like Demi I think has moved down one. Cash has moved up
one. So Kim Laort in first. We got Pauline Ferand Po in second at 26 seconds. Cash is at 30 seconds
back. Remember this is all with reference to Kim Laort. 31 seconds back is Demi only a second
behind Cashia. Anna Vanderbergen at 35 seconds. Uh, sixth place, Ria Paulina 53 seconds. Sarah
Gagante at 103. Puck Peters at 112. C. Carabal at 124. And Eusic here, another FDJ rider at 124.
Okay, let’s get through the chat. Let’s talk about the stage tomorrow. It’s more of a hilly
stage. It’s going to be a tough one, too. Um, okay. So, here’s uh Maitius. So, not this
guy here. Not sharing to my friends. We can’t follow Kim from our locations on TV. Dude,
I understand. Or radio. Thanks, mate. Yeah, no problem. Uh, Kim Laort looks awesome at
this tour right now. Can she win at all? What do you guys think? I’m I’m expecting the
response right now. Uh Dream saying here also uh that I think that was the Vulkar Vessels
rider you’re talking about there. 949. Okay, I got to get moving here quick. Richard Ensberger,
FDJ did a huge amount of work today for Ballering and yet no payoff. None of the GC contenders
made a move on the last climb. Surprising. Yeah, I saw three FDJ riders smashing the front again.
That’s when we had no transponders going on. Uh we didn’t know where Casha was. We didn’t know
where Demi was. Anna Vanderberg finally popped up, but still it took a long time for them to show
up. But I just saw Demi, sorry. I saw the FDJ writers hammering the front. I’m like, she has
to be there. They’re not going to attack this hard if she’s not there. They’d want to go try
to help her. Robert, great job, Colin. As usual, Dream Spelling Tops. Uh, okay. What did I miss
there? Dream Spelling Tops. Okay, I’ll have to figure that out. Niagara, that’s Anna. Thank you,
Colin. How do I buy you a coffee? I got one here, Anna. How about tomorrow? I got this one here
still today. Anna, come on back tomorrow. I know you’ll be here anyway, so we’ll see you then. Uh,
Disbury Dentl, I’m following by terror with the studio upgrade donation. Okay, Disbury Dentl
coming through heavy here. Uh, I’m at Disbury Dentl all the time. Actually, guys, I’m going to
Disbel today. So, almost 10:00 in the morning. Got to do this, do some chores. Okay. Uh yeah, Kim
Lort first place. Pauline Cash in third. Demi in fourth. Guys, 35 seconds separate the top five.
1 minute 24 top 10. Let’s uh just do something here guys quickly. We’ll look at the route for
tomorrow. We’re going to look at tomorrow’s stage. Stage seven tomorrow. Are you kidding me? So on to
stage seven. hilly stage, 160k, slightly longer. Uh, going to be tough. It’s hilly. Today
was mountainous. It’s only 500 meters less climbing tomorrow. So, I think tomorrow is going
to be pretty deadly as well. Take a look at this stage. We got a sprint halfway through. We got a
category 2, category 4, another category 2 into and the call to gran right there. Uh, everyone
that wants to win a stage wants to be at the front on this one. Once you get over the top of that
category two, uh, stage victory awaits you. So, let’s finish up the chat, guys. Yeah, I got a
dentist appointment at noon. I got to get the dogs somewhere in less than an hour. I’m all over
the place, guys. Uh, I’m a busy dude. Uh, Dream, they should have used Chabby to help the GC
instead of getting mountain points. Fun time from Sheila here. Sheila, good to see you
again. Uh yeah, there’s Yeah, if you Yeah, guys, if you want to sort with buying a coffee,
uh it’s through the buy me a coffee link. It’ll be at the video somewhere. Lawrence E, dude, we
got a lurker lurker alert right here. Lawrence, good to have you here, dude. Thanks again. Got
to go to work. See you tomorrow. Okay, Lawrence, let us know where you’re at tomorrow. Uh Dwe
Dentl, that’s Joey Jojo. Best dental office this side of Texas. Uh Andy Ingo, I missed the
finish. Had to go to meeting, dude. Great finish, dude. Come on back tomorrow. Uh Kim Lort looks
really strong, dude. I know you’re a Kim Lort supporter. Maven Sqaban run. Mava Squaban run
for UAE. Juliet Laboose finished second just ahead of the Pelaton. Kim Lort coming in third.
Who will have green? Okay guys, we can look at the green too. Green jersey right now. General
ranking after stage six, it’s still Lorena Vibes. 28 points. This should be pretty much up to
date. Marian Boss at 178, Kim Lort at 118. I still haven’t found Marian Boss. Let’s look
at the stage stage ranking today. Individual uh we’re going to just roll on down through here,
guys, and see if we can see her quickly. Ander Vanderberg in 11th. Okay, this is not correct.
Uh, stage six. Oh, it is correct. Leoo second, third. Okay, so Cashasha was down in uh 12th
place. Did she lose time? No, same time as the front group. Gagante there. Malcotti. There’s
Nadia Gonova from Canada. Wind space. Orange seal. Smaller team doing really well. H. It
keeps refreshing itself before my eyes. So, where is Marannne Boss? I’m looking. I’m
looking. There’s Julie Bego. That’s all we got. It doesn’t even say she’s finished yet,
guys. She’s got to be up there somewhere. She can’t be that far back. But I think this kind of
day, I’m looking here. I’m seeing Mariam Brunell in 44th place at 9 minutes behind. I bet you
Marian Voss lost 10 minutes today. I’m going to say she’s somewhere in that ballpark. Kim’s
gone. Have a nice day. Ciao to you, too, Kim. Oh, Alviso saying Voss is out. Well, she’s out
of the GC, that’s for sure. I don’t think she’s going to be out today. Uh, May Scoban taking
victory salutes at the podium. Awesome job. Uh, Alzo, she’s not done leader. She’s done not

because it bores me to death. Anyways, folks, thanks for supporting the channel. It keeps
growing every day. Uh, and I’m really happy to see Turf France Feex Swift grow every day as

grow women’s cycling. And this is how we do it, guys. We need to talk about it more. Uh great
athletes. I hate even actually saying men’s and women’s. I just want to say pro aletes. That’s
how I look at them. I don’t look at them and say, “Oh, these are women cyclists.” I look at them
and say, “These are proathletes.” That’s how I feel about it. They’re pro aletes who just
happen to be women. There good, right? Okay, guys. I’m jumping off. I got lots to do. See
you again soon. Metallica rocks. Jersey rocks.
