Laura Dolan crashed in the junior women TT, remounted and finished despite looking like Hoogerland with blood streaming down her leg. Hospital and Op lasting 2 hours on her 18th birthday. Hell of a way to create a memory for a significant birthday. Nails...

I saw the pics but hadn't realised it was her birthday. Nails indeed.

Dumoulin had enough time just in case he needed a pit stop a la Giro. Roglic has had a magnificent season but for Froome twas a Bergen too far. Fantastic finish for a TT, crowds were excellent apart from a couple of idiots at the end. NFL negotiators have already been on the phone to the security guy who took out the twat in the red jacket. Excellent block much like Ronnie Lott of the 49ers! |

I was lucky enough to be able to watch in a quiet time at work. Possibly the most exciting TT you'll ever see. Interesting course, bike changes, crowds, changes in the order due to the climb. And I love the Norwegian crowds, they can give the Yorkshire fans a run for their money!

Bye bye Brian. Cookson voted out by an enormous margin. Let's see if the new UCI guy will bring back McQuaid in some post or other. Daggers drawn methinks. |

McQuaid back would be a backward step. Cookson comprehensively beaten though.

Not the best day for Otley yesterday with Lizzie and TomPid failing to feature in the results. Blew my forecast for Pidcock but that happens in road racing. Likely winner today, who knows, even more of a lottery but anyone with 10 second lead at the top of the the last climb up the hill has a good chance. |
