First on the Way Down TDF20-45
Nans Peters (Ag2r La Mondiale) used his rather superior descending skills to drop off the back side of the Port de Bales. Peters was one of the original thirteen that got off the front early into the stage. And he was one of just eight that got to the top of the penultimate climb before leaving them all behind. So far it was looking like a good day for the French squad, with Cosnefroy solidifiying his lead in the Polka Dots, Bardet in good form after his fall, and Peters off the front on a solo run to the finish.
