THE WINE
Today was not a wine day. The race left the forests the other day and raced onto the plateaus and hills of the Massif Central and Puy de Dome. Tomorrow the race heads towards the Moulins and the region of Beaujolais. There will be much to write about. THE RACE Circumnavigating the Puy de Dome on its plateaus and up and down long hills, we saw an explosive race today. Out of the start, we saw a breakaway that broke apart the peloton. These explosive accelerations happened several times throughout the race. This crazy race comes following a rest day. Rest days can cause issues for some riders, and some riders respond well. The last 5km was the race for the finish with games of cat and mouse for the lead group and the chase group. Pello Bilbao (Team BAHRAIN VICTORIOUS) wins the stage. The win was emotional for Bilbao and his team, as they lost teammate Gino Mäder. Mäder died following a crash in the Tour de Suisse in June. Santé Comments are closed.
