In the past four months alone, we’ve watched as wildfires ravaged some 18 million acres in Australia, locusts descended on East Africa in one of the worst infestations in 25 years, tornadoes ripped through middle Tennessee, an earthquake hit Utah, and we’re all experiencing the WHO-classified global pandemic that is COVID-19. I do not believe that God has caused these things to happen.

And the countdown begins to next year. True the podium doesn’t reflect it, but this Tour was not just a calculated defense; it was a sit on the edge of your seat, what will happen today RACE!

Welcome to the Alps. The next three Stages will give us the man to wear yellow into Paris. All three days in the Alps are grueling and the first is perhaps the worst (the longest at 200km, 124 miles). Sprinters will do their best to not get eliminated.
The GC takes a back seat to the sprinters....but not any crosswinds.
As the third week of the Tour begins, the sprinters have two more opportunities for Stage wins: today and in Paris. Of course, with the Alps in between (Stages that can eliminate sprinters), today is perhaps their best last chance.
Another day, another summit finish....
Three Category 1 climbs, 4700 meters of elevation gain and 185 km in the saddle (115 miles) marks the last day in the Pyrenees. The start will be the same:
The race of truth...
Today’s Stage is the only individual time trial. The circuit course is not very technical, but the first 15km is undulating —up/down/repeat with a few small steep ramps and false flats. The second half is flatter but has a bite at the end and kicks up for about 200 meters.

The Pyrenees. Today is a tale of two races. The first 130 km (80 miles) is a gradual, steady slog slightly uphill to an intermediate sprint.
Of Sprinters or breakaway specialists....
Another day of undulating, hilly terrain. The climbs are easier. The finish offers an opportunity for a bunch sprint. So, perhaps, the peloton and sprinters’ teams will be motivated to keep the breakaway in check? We can hope.
Just another day for a breakaway and Stage win glory or.......
After a long, steady day in the saddle (a welcome respite in the relentlessly tough first week of the Tour and a rare gift for the sprinters) , the Tour comes to yet another day suited for the breakaway specialists. Stage 8 includes 7 categorized climbs
