ALPDHUEZ. HAPPY. ICECREAM.

The Bora Boys look happy enough tonight. Very pleased that the mountains are finally behind them. Tomorrow they will roll in to Paris for the finale a little disappointed that they could not do more in the race. However, we salute you – to complete the Tour de France is a major achievement itself.

Alp d’Huez is an amazing mountain to race up, and its great experience to be so close to the fans – but it’s a tough mountain too. Tonight Vossi needs icecream. So anyone in the team hotel? Please take him some – he’s too tired to get off the bed right now.
