Also is that still the lower end frame he won strade bianchi on?

He was never on the low end frame, they just drilled holes in the high end frame* for the cables and used the lower end handlebars

Cool fact, Van Der Poel is the first non world tour rider in 10 years to have the yellow jersey.

He always does that struggle to the end of the stage thing, it's probably not sensible but very :black101:

Thomas always does this. Just pootles along in the middle/back of the bunch and gets stuck in a stupid crash/hits something.

He'd probably have 2 more grand tours if he wasn't such a poo poo for brains.

Don't the Yates brothers do this too? Perhaps the Anglo brain is to blame

Simon Yates is always hanging around the back of the reduced bunch up mountains for no apparent reason. Not sure about the smarter brother.
