It Took Everything TdF24-94
I admit that I get a bit tired of the arms spread wide as the solo stage winner performs for the hundreds of press photographers snapping away across the finishing line. After Thymen Arensman (Ineos-Grenadiers) had done the required pose, he dropped his head down, tucked in his elbows and shortly here after collapsed to the roadway. The Dutchman went away on the previous climb and held off the best climbers in the world to claim his first Tour de France stage victory! He also gave his team (that use to dominate the Tour de France) its first stage win in two years. Chapeau!
