A final Tour TT for G and a fight back from Vingegaard? | Tour de France stage 13 | Watts Occurring
In 2007, a baby faced Geraint Thomas rolled out on the streets of London to start his first-ever Tour de France time trial. Today, he rode his last.
This one happened to be up a brutal Pyrenean mountain under the blazing French summer sun, so we'll forgive G for not going full gas.
Up front, Tadej Pogacar and Jonas Vingegaard battled it out once again. And, well, you can probably guess what happened.
G's teammate Connor Swift joined him to chat all about it. Nice one Swifty.

Watch out Cav, Pog's on the march | Tour de France stage 12 | Watts Occurring
It was nearly 8pm and G messaged the famous Watts Occurring WhatsApp group. 'Boys I'm not really in the mood. I'm nailed.'
But we knew an hour on the massage table chatting to Luke was exactly what he needed - and by the end of tonight's pod, he'd come round.
And what a day it was at the Tour. A huge break, GC gaps aplenty and - of course - an absolute clinic from Pog. We are witnessing greatness.
Incredibly though... he didn't win our Continental Tyres Chapeau of the Day. You'll have to listen to find out who claimed the crown today.

A new yellow jersey and the best Yates we've ever seen? | Tour de France stage 10 | Watts Occurring
Bastille Day in France and the Tour usually serves up a route that will cause some drama. Well, today didn't disappoint.
A nail-biting wait for young Ben Healy to see if he could nab yellow off Pogacar, a typically classy stage win from the Giro d'Italia winner, and plenty of typical Tour drama aplenty.
What a race it is.
The new yellow jersey won our Continental Tyres Chapeau of the Day and Tom and Luke also awarded yesterday's to a rider who achieved a life dream. Pretty special stuff.

G's big day out in the break | Tour de France stage seven | Watts Occurring
An hour into today's Tour stage and news filtered out: Geraint Thomas is in the breakaway. Hold the phone.
In the end, it wasn't to be for the break - Nils Politt, 'the Flying Dentist', set the pace in the bunch and they were caught the first time up the famous Mur de Bretagne.
G enjoyed himself though, and joined Luke on the pod to chat all about it.
The boys will be back on Monday.

Shocks in the TT and what's next for INEOS? | Tour de France stage five | Watts Occurring
G's back on the pod tonight and he settled in for a long old catch up with Luke after today's 33km time trial in Caen.
They chatted the TT, G's form, INEOS' plans, Remco's ride... and plenty more besides.
Quintessential Watts Occurring, this. Enjoy.
