Another corker of a stage

So, can G do it? Logic says yes, but uphill TTs can be unpredictable.

He definitely can but uphill TTs have the potential to throw up some odd results. See for example Roglic at the 2020 Tour!

I think we’re going to see some comedy bike changers when they switch from TT bikes on the flat to road bikes for the climb 
By all accounts, the climb tomorrow is harder than the final climb today.
G’s looked solid on the climbs to date and he has the advantage of time checks on Roglic
Nice bike path for the “flat” bit of the TT.
I’m not sure what they’d do if an overtake was required

That climb looks horrific 
No free sources to watch this, only GCN ?
And Eurosport, which is now part of Discovery so you may have that as part of a Sky package.
No, might be switching to sky soon though virgin seems to be charging me twice as much
S4C have highlights in Welsh - I’ll watch that later and hide from this thread

Last man off is G at 17.15 ish so he’ll be finished around 17.55. I’ll be watching it on catchup as I’m on nights and shift handover is 6pm.
I think this times are CET, so an hour earlier in the UK?

Didn’t think of that. 
Part of me thinks, with these type of TT’s, the rider has to choose a TT or roadie before the stage.
If a bike change is needed, you need to change to a spare of your original declaration (I.e TT to another TT).
There’s a bike change zone and a helper waiting there with the road bike.
The road is too narrow for the team cars, so the mechanic follows with the spare bike on a motorbike

How about swapping a helmet?

Looks like all the Ineos riders have. They must have calculated that the benefit from being cooler on the climb outweighs the time lost at the change

G starting to lose a bit of time
I’ve got a bad feeling about this
