Dennis has been working himself into a shivering heap for a week. If he does anything here I'll be somewhat surprised.

That's OK, Ineos don't need another 1-2 stage victory while (presumably) also winning the entire thing

Wiggins (lol) thinks he could absolutely smash it. 56 certainly, maybe 56.5?

I love how commentators always put disclaimers on the supertuck. DEFINITELY DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME THESE ARE HIGHLY TRAINED PROFESSIONAL RIDERS.

Someone is going to end up dead when they hit a bump at 70kph and can't control it sitting on the top tube
