Welcome back to Lantern Rouge cycling podcast here with Benji Nassen for stage 16 of the Tour de France

Probably the worst best stage of the tour so far one of the worst stages. I've watched this year for some of the things that went on

Absolutely fantastic stuff

Can't wait to recap it. Got some really meme-worthy moments in this one some teams classification. Maybe drama

But yeah, the parkour medium mountain Benji, you know is always gonna be a break because the last fight major climb

Crest with like 40 kilometers 43 kilometers to go 33 cases go

There's three major climbs called a port 11 and a half cares five and a half percent colder like four 13k six and a half percent smack bang in the middle

So there's five points available 10 points available then five points available on called a port there

That's fair five and a half case six point seven percent that on that catch who that crested then yeah with a technical wet descent and false flat descent running to the

Code d'asperer Sarah, which is like a one case six and a half percent punch before a little uphill drag to the finish that was one for the climbing

Spenty boys or some

Quicker punches like cause near for up but the start it was really cold and and or today and especially up at

Padalakas where they started the stage they neutralized like 15k of it because it was like four or five degrees

And then they unaware they kicked it off to be honest

But because it was a descent start dingy. We once again saw

Strong ruler getting in the break right off the bat

Yes, certainly cusp at us green the Danish boy in the breakway

He started hammering it like crazy while the others were trying to like counter attack

But once us grand goes you know that he's got that engine and he's gonna keep that up for a while and he keeps on

Bringing dad gap out 30 seconds 55 seconds to a minute 30 at a certain point

Obviously would be able trying to attack towards that and I think the

Well, there were a lot of attacks trying to bridge up. We saw on our trying stuff and so forth
