0:00.0	Welcome back to the Lantern Rouge Cycling Podcast with Benji Nyson. This is the zero-detailier stage 19
0:08.7	B wrap up and of well-terrestrial stage four wrap up and what a very very odd day in cycling. But
0:17.4	nonetheless the potter still brought to you by LeCole. Maybe if everyone had LeCole range
0:24.6	jackets we wouldn't have had the situation we had today they obviously supply the kit to
0:29.5	Bahrain McLaren in the pro peloton Bahrain McLaren wanting to continue the full stage today
0:35.9	according to their statements later but we'll get into that. Yeah if you want to check out LeCole's
0:39.9	kit it's www.lecolle.cc link is in the show notes and enter code LR015 to get yourself
