| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to Lantern Rouge cycling podcast supported by LeCole. He was Benji Nyson for Criterium did |
| 0:04.5 | oath in a stage four recap. Why am I on the ground if you're watching on YouTube? Well, I just had |
| 0:09.6 | to move the house. I just set up the router and all I brought with me was my LeCole t-shirt, |
| 0:15.1 | great doubling as a moving shirt, as well as my sunglasses. Couldn't do without both of those two |
| 0:20.1 | things. So a little bit of a different podcast today. Man, because I've never liked you on this |
| 0:24.4 | podcast. I don't intend to now. I didn't watch a minute of this TT because I was moving. Benji |
| 0:30.7 | watched all of it. And so we're going to do it a bit differently today, where Benji explains to me |
| 0:35.2 | what the hell happened in this TT because it's got some super weird results. The profile before |
| 0:41.0 | I throw it at Benji, Fermini to Aroschla Mollier, 17k 330 meters of climbing constant up and down. |
| 0:48.2 | We've got rolling climbs and a fair few turns. Can you just explain to me what this course |
| 0:55.6 | was like, Benji, and why that maybe threw up some weird results? Well, the scores was actually a bit |
| 1:03.7 | underrated on the profile, I'd say, because looking on the road, it looks much harder than |
| 1:08.9 | I anticipated when I looked at the profile. We've got a very lumpy terrain, rolling hills, |
| 1:14.8 | and that initial false flat descent is a good start, but then it really starts off after a good, |
| 1:22.7 | so what is it? Seven kilometers. We've got an uphill section that is on five to six percent, |
| 1:27.7 | but there were some more parts in there that were a bit more than that. I can tell you that from |
| 1:32.2 | how those riders were riding it. Then a few rolling hills on top of that hill, we go down again |
| 1:36.7 | and not a small hill of a kilometer, then down again, and then the final ramp to the finish line, |
| 1:41.2 | which was 1.4 kilometers at 4%, but there was a section in there of 8% according to the visuals |
| 1:46.8 | on the right bottom of the screen while watching the race. I felt like the time trial was |
| 1:51.9 | harder than everybody was anticipating, and the riders as well, because certain teams were |
| 1:57.2 | making a strategy to go pretty hard at the start, and certain teams were picking strategy to go |
