It wasn't hard to work out who Tom Gloag's parents were at the finish of stage five of the Tour of Britain. Amid the mild maelstrom caused by Remco Evenepoel's victory, there was a couple screaming "TOM, TOM" at the side of the road, heard over the top of everything else.
They had a lot to shout about. Their son had just pushed Evenepoel to the end, finishing second on The Tumble, his first top-two at a bike race since his stage win at the Czech Tour last year.
