And with that, I’ll sign off. Jeremy Whittle’s stage report will be up on the site very soon. And from me, thanks for reading and commenting. Bye.
Stage winner Marlen Reusser speaks:
“The team had a plan to make it a hard race and we just said attack and one of us would go and I was lucky it was me – we have our GC leaders and we always try to keep them there but also have an open-race strategy so everyone is allowed to win a stage. I’m really grateful and thankful to my team. I think in this tour it was the kind of stage that proved the kind of rider I am. It was hard with the gravel stages but for me not harder than the other stages.”
