0:00.0	Welcome back to the Lantern Rouge Cycling Podcast with Benji Nyson. This is our zero
0:05.2	to tell you stage 12 recap and a stage 13 preview at the end brought to you by our partner,
0:11.1	LeCole, who produced performance road cycling apparel. They provided the kit to Byron McClaren
0:17.7	and it must be pretty damn good kit because we saw Mark put on in the breakaway today for Byron
0:22.4	McClaren, the Ukrainian and he was one of the only men in the break and in the GC group tooth
0:27.8	that was happy just wearing the LeCole or GLA base layer and a jersey whereas everyone else
0:33.4	was having a ride up as much as possible. He looked pretty comfy and that didn't seem to affect
0:38.1	him at all. So if you want to get a discount on LeCole kit, 15% discount, go to their website
0:57.8	and check out to get 15% off. On to stage 12, it was a pretty interesting stage profile except for
1:04.7	the finale and we've been talking Benji and I back and forth with LeCole, LaFlam Rouge offline
1:09.9	about what a shame we thought it was that they just made a flat at the end a little bit too long.
1:15.1	It's a very symmetrical profile from Chessnautico to Chessnautico. We got the coast,
1:19.9	so on the coast they go inland into the hills and then back when their way back into Chessnautico
1:26.9	to the finish, it's 205 kilometers, not quite long enough to be a truly monstrous stage. There
1:34.0	was a rain forecast today, a little bit of wind too on some of the climbs and it was just constant
1:41.2	climbs of 6K, 6% 5K, 8% 5K, 6% 4K, 5.5%. The longest one was 9K. I think the Madonna
1:52.9	di Pugliano, 9K, 6% and the Butterbotto, 5K, 8% was a little bit nasty in the first half of the
2:00.7	race, but yeah, about eight major climbs, nine major climbs, not much flat at all. The only problem was
2:08.8	for really whether there was going to be any GC action was the last climb, it was probably the
2:14.8	easiest to the day. The San Giovanni Galleria climb wasn't that difficult to have a difficult
2:24.0	staff, but then it was at a scent into the finish and from the crest of there to the finish,
2:30.4	about 30 kilometers, which is a long, long time to hold the whole margin of say five to seven
