111km to go: A group of 11 riders have established a breakaway. A counter attack of about 10 riders have an 11sec gap, while the main bunch which now contains the yellow, green and white jersey wearers is 20sec behind the attackers. Also, news just in of another abandon: Kaja Rysz (Lifeplus Wahoo) is out.
115km to go: A fast start and the rolling terrain has created splits in the bunch straightaway. There was also an early attack from an unidentified SD Worx rider (bear with me…live TV coverage doesn’t start for another 20 minutes) but the chasing group has swiftly reeled them back in. Cedrine Kerbaol (Ceratizit-WNT), in the white jersey, is in a second group behind the bunch and the polka-dot jersey wearer, Koster is in a third group.
