    That's really disappointing to see both Sagan and Cavendish out.

    Try considering others' lives and waste a minute of your own by relaxing. Or buy a bike.

    Great finish by Aru to win the stage, went for it with a little over 2K to go and kept it going. Good to see most of the favourites up there, Dan Martin takes 2nd just ahead of Froome who now take Yellow off "G", with Richey Porte in 4th..

    I have something in common with Fabian Aru, when I've ridden up what to me is a bast*** of a hill my facial expressions look like his.... <laugh><laugh>

    On le Tour highlights, what a bloody ridiculous advert for Watchfinder or something, I don't know anyone who rides with a grand father clock on their wrist...

    Well I know what you mean, I just came in from a 2 hour ride, and I am sure my facial expression will be pretty much the same.

    Does seem strange, but I guess they have to make the watch big so you can easily see it.

    Good to see Simon Yates performing well again at the tour.

    It's a lovely bit of road now on the Market Weighton bye pass, Giant Bradley way, makes all the difference having a nice smooth tarmac road under your wheels.

    Most weekends I come down the North cliff/South cliff road and then down to S. Cave.

    "Please know that it's sport and I have a family," Cavendish said on Twitter.

    "Everyone is entitled to their opinions. But vile and threatening comments on social media to myself and my family aren't deserved."

    The Court of Arbitration of Sport has rejected Peter Sagan's appeal against his disqualification from the Tour de France.
