Feed Zone Rest Day 2

Stunned by actually calling the second week’s play correctly, the team are both full of admiration for the Rumena Majica and just a little bit full of themselves. Collective back-slapping aside, Chris, David and Gary try to remember the last 5 stages while simultaneously keeping one eye on the Tour's upcoming final week. Whither Remco Evenepoel? Whither Jonas Vingegaard? And should pro cyclists have a 15 minute time-out between finishing a stage and speaking to the media? Lidl-Trek probably think so!Photo: This year’s Tour began in the Hautes-de-France region, birthplace of Amédée Fournier, seen here taking a well-deserved rest during the 1939 edition. Fournier won the opening stage from Paris to Caen and again on stage 5 from Lorient to Nantes. We reckon this photo is taken in Toulouse after a gruelling 311km stage 9 trek across the Pyrenees to Pau. The race would be won by Belgian rider, Sylvère Maes - the second of his pair of Tour wins. It would be 3 decades before another Belgian would with the Tour de France. Yes, you guessed, Édouard Louis Joseph Merckx.
