Are They Still There? TdF25-62
Shortly after Quinn Simmons (Lidl-Trek) found his parents along the side of the road on the climb of one of the uncategorized hills, he went off on his own. With twenty-seven kilometers to go, he was hoping to improve his previous second place behind the man that is chasing him right now. I now know that my suspicion about what is going to happen when Simmons tucks up his hair. He came to the start today with his hair up under his helmet, I think he had a plan tucked up under there too. Chasing the American champion is the former Irish champion, Ben Healy (EF Education-EasyPost) along with Anders Halland Johannessen (Uno X-Mobility), Pablo Castrillo (Movistar), and Michael Woods (Israel-Premier Tech). At this point in the stage, Ben Healy was the virtual leader of the Tour. Now he has to rely on his legs, and a detente between the leaders of the Tour about five minutes back down the road.
