Looking It Over ToB46
The domestiques have done their work now it is time for those with a one at the end of their bib numbers to do their work. Well, Wout Poels (Sky) who launched the first attack on the mid slopes of the Haytor climb is bib number 13. He is the first racer I have seen with that number who hasn't flipped on of them upside down to avoid the bad luck. It was Rohan Dennis (BMC) who chased down the attacking Dutchman, bringing another one, Tom Dumoulin (Giant-Alpecin) with him. Joining the aggression at the front of affairs are Tony Gallopin (Lotto Soudal) and Gorka Izaguirre (Movistar). The quintet is looking back over their collective shoulders to see first who else is trying to bridge across and the whereabouts of the Yellow Jersey of Julian Vermote (Etixx-Quickstep).
