Blown Apart PN25-24
When the Peacock stream of the race came on air today, the peloton had already been blown apart. So, I am not super sure if it was the wind, the plans of the combinations of Ineos-Grenadiers and Visma-Lease a bike, or a combination of the two, but the effects were the same regardless. With the front group going hard, riding at upwards of forty miles per hour, those behind or caught off guard struggled to get their chase organized. It became confusing as to who was were, but if you weren't in the group driving the pace or in the second group chasing hard, you were never going to see the front of the race again. And if you had hopes of placing well in the general classification, you hopes were just blown apart by the weather and riding style today.
