Chris Hoy Tour de 4 today, cancer charity stuff, lots involved.

Geraint Thomas finishes his pro cycling career in Cardiff today. Has raced an unparalleled 19 Tour De France's. Icon.

Disgrace that the Israel Premier Tech team haven't been stopped from spoiling this Vuelta.

The riders today voted that they'll end their race if there's another major disruption.

The spineless Vuelta organisers should never have let it get to this by letting that team in the race.

He did well.

Not sure he's the GC candidate for the future they suggest like.

He's 26, he'd need a squad build for him. Does he excel anywhere specific?

Well that's it, I think he's a (more than) good climber and can TT well enough.
