Back to the Peloton TdF25-14
As I said earlier, it was a day for many stops along the road. It wasn't a big worry because the peloton was riding at a leisurely pace (for pro racers). However, whenever the Maillot Jaune is off the back it is proper etiquette to wait for him (or her) to rejoin the peloton. This little group of returnees was led by Pascal Eenkhoorn (Soudal-Quick Step). He was followed in turn by Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) wearing the Maillot a Pois for only the second time in his career. Next came Phil Bauhaus (Bahrain-Victorious) and then Mathieu Van Der Poel (Alepcin-Deceuninck) all decked out in yellow astride a yellow bike. I do wonder if it was the same bike that was delivered to his teammate for yesterday's stage.
