Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the final climbing showdown of this 2022 Tour of America! It's the final chance for the pure climbers (the more TT capable ones will get another chance tomorrow), and one out of just two remaining chances to shake up the GC!

We're in Modesto, California, for the start of stage 19. And if you think that the city's name has something to do with being modest - well, you're right. It should be named after William Ralston, founder of the Bank of California. The latter however declined and asked that another name be found. And because one of the Spanish railroad employees then exclaimed that Ralston was "muy modesto", the place got its current name.

What's less modest is the number of more than 200k inhabitants. Stanislaus County, whereof Modesto is the seat, ranks sixth among California's counties in farm production. And the Gallo Family Winery is even the US' largest family-owned winery. And the winery even is the biggest employer around! Modesto?

The city's most well-known personality probably is filmmaker George Lucas. I don't know if the organizers asked him to write the script for today's stage - but even if he didn't, I'm sure it will be an exciting one!

However, the first third of the race probably won't be too interesting - apart from the answer to the question of who will be in today's breakaway. After 50km heading north-west (rather west, then north, then west), we'll have today's first sprint point in Tracy.

And then comes 2nd category Patterson Pass (70km) - and with the current gap on top of the KoM standings, those 10 points could be pretty decisive in the end! However, after that first ascent, we'll get another potentially uninteresting 50km - including another interemdiate sprint in Livermore (82km).

But once arrived in Diablo, the grande finale will start! And just to warm up their legs, the riders will do the first - easier - half of the final climb, and then return back to the valley. And they'll tackle Mount Diablo again - this time all the way up! The whole climb - rated 1st category - has just 6.6% of average slope - but the second half, and especially the final kilomters, are definitely tough - and given that we're on day 19 of this Tour now, this final mountain of the race clearly has the potential of shaking up things once again!

Let's see if we'll get the devil cheering on the riders on Mount Diablo - or if we'll see a hell of a ride by some rider. The bookies don't fancy any real outsiders for the latter option, though. Their Top 3 are the GC Top 3, numbers 4-6 are GC numbers 4-6 - meaning we get pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin with three stars, and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Ranaweera, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ccc.png Carapaz and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Faglum Karlsson with two. pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Kritskiy, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Nerz, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Kuss get one each - while GC numbers 7-10 miss out on the list.

In any case, the stage could have a major impact on the GC - remember that 2nd to 4th are within just 30", and from 8th to 10th there are even just 9"! But before we get to see how the GC favorites fare, let's take a look at what happened on the first 2/3 of the stage:


What happened so far


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_01.jpg

Today's weather is perfect for a dramatic stage, with dark clouds luring, and some wind blowing - however, we'll have headwind on the second half of the race, which might rather be hindering some surprise moves.

We'll see - anyway, the race is on!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_02.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson were the first two attackers of the day - two riders who were quite a bit below their manager's expectations so far.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_03.jpg

And obviously, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard had to attack today as well! And no pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Hamilton so far - the latter's GC position probably kept him from joining the breakaway!

In the second wave we had pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/lec.png Henao, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Hoehn, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png Dunne, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png McKenna, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Alexander and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Perez, while pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Moreno Hernandez and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Gillett were trying to catch up. pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero had just attacked the peloton and trailed by a minute - with the pack another 30" down.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_04.jpg

And yet another group - and still no pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Hamilton! Knowing the pack probably wouldn't give him any leeway, the Aussie at least sent another teammate up front in an attempt to steal as many points as possible from pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard.

In this group of four, there were pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/anz.png Costagli, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hocevar, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Bayly.

The pack so far didn't worry about the escapees, with the teams of the GC Top 3 setting a very moderate pace.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_05.jpg

No further attacks from the pack and a 4-minute advantage after a couple more kilometers means that those 16 riders were today's breakaway of the day:

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Baylypcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Gillettpcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png McKennapcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png Dunne

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Moreno Hernandezpcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedreropcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/anz.png Costaglipcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hocevar


There are plenty of solid to good climbers in this group, with pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke topping them all. pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/anz.png Costagli are closest, but the latter lacks some physical stats after two years of declining.

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/lec.png Henao and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero are next - in short, all but pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Perez, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hocevar and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson are at least decent climbers, with the latter being the group's strongest pure puncheur. He might have picked the wrong stage for an attack, though...

We could observe that pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Bayly, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Alexander and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png Dunne were not doing any work - all of them had a teammate, which might give them some advantage later on.

GC-wise, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Hoehn is the biggest threat, being 20th pre-stage. Additionally, he's 3rd in the U25 standings. pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard (23rd), pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero (25th) and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard (30th) are in the Top 30 as well.

If this group should make it to a line, this could be decisive for the team standings, with two riders of leader pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Amaysim present in the breakaway.

But it was a long way to go, still 125km to be raced.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_06.jpg

25km later, the escapees arrived in Tracy - and did not sprint for the points under pouring rain:

Sprint - Tracy

1.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Gillett10 (10)-6"
2.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson6 (35)-4"
3.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hocevar4 (17)-2"
4.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/anz.png Costagli2 (2)
5.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Moreno Hernandez1 (36)


The peloton trailed by 7'16" already - could this rather unexpectedly even be a stage for the breakaway?


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_07.jpg

On top of Patterson Pass, we still had pouring rain - pretty symbolic for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Amaysim, as their hopes of a KoM win might have gone down the drain here! And everyone wondered what pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Bayly and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Gillett actually did in the breakaway, as they were not even trying to steal any points from pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard!

The Norwegian in the end was the strongest out of just three riders fighting for the points at all:

KoM - Patterson Pass (2nd)

1.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard10 (98)
2.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Moreno Hernandez8 (40)
3.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero6 (11)
4.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png McKenna4 (20)
5.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke2 (24)


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard now had a 5 points virtual lead over pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Hamilton - meaning that the latter would need to score on the final ascent to defend his KoM lead!

Which however wasn't too likely - even less so given that the pack still was 6'44" down at this point. 75km to go!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_08.jpg

KoM points, sprint points - pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard just can't get enough of them!

Sprint - Livermore

1.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard10 (85)-6"
2.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Moreno Hernandez6 (42)-4"
3.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/anz.png Costagli4 (6)-2"
4.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hocevar2 (15)
5.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson1 (36)


With these 10 points, the Norwegian also moved up to 9th in the points standings - 15 points behind the next higher rider, though.

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Lutsyshyn led the pack over the line 7 minutes later - with less than 65 kilometers to go, they definitely had to hurry up if the top climbers wanted to fight for the stage win!

Will they catch the breakaway? Will the escapees be fighting for the stage win? Which ones of the top GC riders will struggle today? We'll find out soon, as the leaders are approaching the first semi-climb of Mount Diablo!


LIVE +++ LIVE +++ LIVE


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_09.jpg

And here we go! As mentioned in the introductory part, this first half, which has to be climbed twice, is rather easy - and isn't even rewarded with KoM points. Still, 7.5km of climbing should be rather strength-sapping, let's see if everyone can keep up!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_10.jpg

In fact, not everyone was able to keep up in the pack, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Taillefour trails by 5 minutes already. However, the time limit still shouldn't be an issue, given that we only have 30km left in today's stage.

But what will happen within those 30 kilometers? We'll likely get two races in one - one for the stage win, one for the GC - as the peloton still trails the breakaway by 7 minutes! On a 30km climb with 10% average slopes that might be possible to make up for, but most likely not on Mount Diablo!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_11.jpg

The pace was pretty slow up front, so nobody was dropped on this first semi-ascent of Mount Diablo. The upper half, which can be partly seen from this point, looks much more scary, though - but for now it's downhill for the breakaway!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_12.jpg

What also looks very scary is a descent on dirt roads under pouring rain! So far, everyone was able to stay on their bikes, fingers crossed that they can do the rest of the downhill without an accident - and without punctures - as well!

20 kilometers to go for the escapees!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_13.jpg

The pack tackles the descent 6'47" later, led by pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Barta. Clearly, the stage win is gone - the distance is too short and the climb too easy to make up that much ground. Unless they're cheating - at least they seem to be flying, not touching the ground here!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_14.jpg

And we're already on the final climb! Mount Diablo could make or break the entire race for a rider - be it in terms of stage win or GC!

The riders already know the lower half of the ascent, but as mentioned before, the upper part is way more difficult! Well, not exactly half, it's just about 6.5km from the intersection where they started the descent before. But still, that's going to be a real test!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_15.jpg

And they didn't waste a lot of time to launch the first attack! "They" refers to pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Hoehn and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero, while pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png McKenna, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Gillett, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Perez are now trying to shut this move down!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_16.jpg

The peloton is still 6'35" down as they tackle the Mount Diablo climb. They gained a couple of seconds, but really just a couple.

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Velasco and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Aniolkowski are leading the pack on the initial meters - most GC riders are well positioned already, maybe expecting some early moves?


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_17.jpg

10km to go for the leaders, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png McKenna has almost closed the gap to the three attackers! All riders are still there, so the speed probably still isn't too high - and we're still on the easier section of the climb as well.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_18.jpg

But as soon as they really feel pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png McKenna breathing down their necks, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Hoehn and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero go again! 9km left.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_19.jpg

Today is the final chance to directly attack pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett with the help of a strong team, and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Kraftwerk and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Philips indeed seem to be setting up a move!

The peloton is down to 100 riders, but no riders relevant for the GC have been dropped yet.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_20.jpg

7km left, so they'll soon reach the second half of the climb! The three attackers hold onto their 25" advantage, which pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson is now trying to reduce.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_21.jpg

10km to go for the pack, where the same two teams still are trying to isolate pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett! And it seems to work, as the race leader has no helper left protecting him! Is this the chance to break him?


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_22.jpg

Dirt roads on the descent, tarmac roads on the upper half of the climb - and we're back to square one, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Gillett reels in the three attackers again! Just 6km to go now!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_23.jpg

But pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke doesn't relent and kicks again - this time, only pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero can hold his wheel! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard is taking over chasing duties - and the pace is now too high for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Perez.

The peloton can be seen quite a lot further down on the climb - with just 5km to go for the leaders, the stage win really is out of reach for the pack.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_24.jpg

The peloton reaches the intersection more than 5 minutes later - clearly, the pace hasn't been horrendous here, either. We still have 75 riders in the pack, and all who are well placed in the GC are still here.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_25.jpg

4km left for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero, who haven't been able to open a sizeable gap yet! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard is going really strong - much stronger than you'd expect him to on a long climb!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_26.jpg

The designated KoM leader is getting some help from pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/lec.png Henao, who finally closes the gap just 500m later! Except for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Perez, all breakaway riders still could get the stage win - which makes it 15 candidates for one win!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_27.jpg

And we do have our first notable victim of the day! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Liphongyu, 15th in the GC is dropped! But as long as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Campero stays safe, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Sauber probably won't care that much.

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ccc.png Eislers and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Coutinho are in the same group, by the way...


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_28.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Kraftwerk have mostly pulled out from the chase, and so it's just pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Philips left to set the pace! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Champoussin, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Barta, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Xandri and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Eenkhoorn are up front, with pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Koch occasionally taking a turn as well.

5km to go for the pack as well - and if anyone wants to gap pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett, they'd better launch some moves soon!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_29.jpg

Moving is a good keyword, as that's what pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/lec.png Henao, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Moreno Hernandez and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard are doing! The pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Eddie Stobart rider already has a stage win to his name, while pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard has a 2nd place. Let's see if that attack sticks, or if it eventually gets shut down like all the previous ones!

3km to go, by the way!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_30.jpg

It's not entirely shut down - but it breaks up the group! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Bayly and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png Dunne join the three attackers, while the other 9 are left behind! Or we'll rather say 8, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Alexander is even dropped from the chase group!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_31.jpg

Out of the four pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Philips riders, only pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Eenkhoorn remains at the front of the pack, ahead of pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Koch. In 3rd position, we already have pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann, while pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Hamilton is attentive as well. pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Ranaweera, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Kritskiy, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Roman are next, with pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Faglum Karlsson slightly further back.

And further down the road, we spot a group including pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Hibatullah that has just been dropped - the Indonesian is 4th in the U25 standings.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_32.jpg

2km to go for the breakaway, and now it's pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard who makes his move! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard stays in his saddle for now, does he have another acceleration left? He's already riding beyond his usual climbing skills anyway (as is pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Moreno Hernandez once again)!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_33.jpg

At the same time, we also have an attack from the peloton! It's pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Ranaweera who tries to go for a GC podium now - and for now he's only followed by pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Hamilton! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Faglum Karlsson can't respond right away due to subpar positioning - this move is a really, really dangerous one!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_34.jpg

Things start looking rather good for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard - he's already 29" ahead with 1,500m to go, and nobody seems to be able to counter this time!

Meanwhile, the chase is breaking further apart, with pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hocevar and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson now dropped.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_35.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Faglum Karlsson has finally reached the front of the pack and is now chasing, together with pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin. Meanwhile, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Hamilton has been dropped by pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Ranaweera, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi!

3.5km to go for the pack, and with those steep slopes we could still get some significant time gaps back here!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_36.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard is under the red kite and has extended his lead to a minute - and it looks like the others have resigned already!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_37.jpg

Now it's race leader pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett himself who takes the lead in the pack, trying to chase down the pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi group! They're already 35" ahead, though, and this could indeed be a game changer for the GC!

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Perez is still slightly ahead of this group, while further ahead we see that pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Alexander has caught up with pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hocevar and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson. pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png McKenna, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Hoehn, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/anz.png Costagli and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Gillett are another couple of meters further up the road.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_38.jpg

Uh-oh, that doesn't look good for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Sauber at all! After having lost already their #2 very early on this climb, Bolivian champion pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Campero - 9th in the GC - has now been dropped as well!

Further ahead, we see pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Kuss towards the end of the group - it looks like yet another bad day for the U.S. rider!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_39.jpg

And indeed, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett closes the gap to the pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi group, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Kuss isn't around anymore! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pns.png Aru and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Kritskiy are struggling as well, and even pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ccc.png Carapaz isn't looking fresh anymore!

So who else is there? Of course, the four previous attackers pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Ranaweera, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv, plus pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Faglum Karlsson, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin and the three aforementioned riders who look to be in troubles.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_40.jpg

It's no troubles at all for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard, who only keeps extending his lead! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Bayly, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Moreno Hernandez, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/lec.png Henao and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png Dunne are 1'26" back, and only 300m are left in today's stage!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_41.jpg

It's then pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv who tries to ride away, but the only thing he achieves so far is definitely cracking pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ccc.png Carapaz, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Kritskiy and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pns.png Aru! So this is actually an attack to become the best CT rider, and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann currently is the only one who can follow his compatriot's move!

Behind, we see a group containing not only pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Kuss, but also pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/lpu.png Senni and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Hamilton - with the latter being at risk of losing his Top 10 spot, and the former two getting even further away from those positions!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_42.jpg

But up front, it's a big, big win for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Geoffrey Bouchard! The pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Cedevita rider already took a stage podium on day 3 - and now he doubles up with the stage win on the 3rd to last day! Congratulations!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_43.jpg

And among those who will take the remaining podium spots, no-one seems to be able to attack! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Hoelgaard has been leading ever since pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard rode away, but he doesn't look like he's got much left in the tank.

On the contrary, the group behind seems to be closing in, led by pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/anz.png Costagli! And yes, they're indeed down to 5, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png McKenna has just been dropped.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_44.jpg

The GC favorites aren't that much further down anymore, either - and it's still pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv who's pushing hard! And it also looks like pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Ranaweera and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Faglum Karlsson have cracked, what a great day the German must be having! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann are following, while pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett seem to be struggling as well!

1,500m to go, including some very steep slopes!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_45.jpg

Up front, the chasers are indeed getting dangerously close, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Pedrero and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Lunke accelerate and have almost reached the front group already! Can they even steal a stage podium from those who looked strongest before?

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/anz.png Costagli and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Hoehn don't seem to be able to react, while pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Gillett has now been dropped as well.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_46.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv now catches pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Perez, and he even seems to have a small gap over pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett! The race leader is looking really strong now - unlike pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin, who is a couple of meters back!

And pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Ranaweera and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Faglum Karlsson have definitely lost touch!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_47.jpg

Sure, who else but pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Daniel Hoelgaard could have had enough energy left to sprint to 2nd place? pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Cameron Bayly taking 3rd place is pretty symbolic, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Tryg now also take the KoM jersey ahead of pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Amaysim - and it could be definitive this time!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_48.jpg

The fight for 4th is a really close call - and this on a mountain stage! Apparently, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Salvador Moreno Hernandez was slightly ahead of pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png Conor Dunne. pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/lec.png Sebastian Henao is last of the front group, but still ahead of pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Sindre Skjostad Lunke and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bee.png Antonio Pedrero, who settle for 7th and 8th.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_49.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Alex Hoehn and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/anz.png Teodoro Costagli round off today's Top 10. pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Gillett and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gla.png McKenna should make it ahead of the GC riders as well, while the same isn't quite sure yet for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hocevar, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Alexander and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson in the background.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_50.jpg

Wow, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv! The German indeed leaves the GC podium riders behind - but maybe pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett just was playing mind games with them, as he now attacks as well and seems to easily close the gap!

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin are now with pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Perez, but neither seems to be able to gap the others.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_51.jpg

OK, that might have been speaking too early. pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann indeed look spent, but pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin now accelerates as well, trying to join pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv!

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Ranaweera and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Faglum Karlsson aren't that far behind, but still are at risk of losing some valuable seconds - and all chances of still getting a GC podium!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_52.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hocevar, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Alexander and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Eriksson indeed make it to the finish line ahead of the GC riders. They take 13th through 15th - meaning no points are left for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett et al!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_53.jpg

Yeah, sure... pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett definitely stamps his authority on this race, riding away from everyone! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv is still doing a great job, while pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin could gain some valuable seconds against pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi as well!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_54.jpg

But... no. This time, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett got a bit too enthusiastic, and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv, who managed his energy slightly better, got the better of him in the end! He crosses the line 4'39" behind the stage winner.

On the other hand, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin also caught up with pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett, which means that he gets the same time as the GC leader - + 4'46", or 7" behind pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv. Which matters way less for them than the gap to those behind...


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_55.jpg

And that gap is significant! pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann are clocked at + 5'23", which means 37 seconds behind pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin! Let's not get too much ahead of ourselves, but: this could definitely be decisive!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_56.jpg

The last of the breakaway riders, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/t3a.png Perez, finishes narrowly ahead of pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Ranaweera and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Faglum Karlsson, who didn't have a good day - they're a full minute behind the yellow jersey! And that's probably all podium hopes done and dusted.

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Kritskiy and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ccc.png Carapaz were even worse, another 24" further back.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_57.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pns.png Aru, who at one point tried to follow the former two, ended up being caught by this group around pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Kuss and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/lpu.png Senni, who are 6'25" back - or 1'39" behind pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin. And 1'46" behind pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Vasyliv, let's not forget that!

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Hamilton can also be seen in the background; the Australian loses another 35"!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_58.jpg

The biggest loser of the day, however, is clearly pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Campero! The Bolivian started the day in 9th position, but after losing 8'42" to the winner - and almost 4 minutes to the yellow jersey group - the Top 10 are likely out of reach for him now.

By the way, his teammate pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Liphongyu is clocked at + 11'02", and drops from 15th to 25th! An absolute horror day for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Sauber!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_59.jpg

And last but not least, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2021/Micros/esc.png Taillefour tried to attack pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bns.png Orue's last place - but he came 5 minutes short. And given that the Frenchie is usually stronger in TTs, it's likely that the Paraguayan will defend the red lantern until the end.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_60.jpg

It's no red lantern, but rather an orange party for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Geoffrey Bouchard! The Frenchman only needed one attack, and he made it stick in an impressive way, leaving behind his breakaway companions by 1'39" on the final kilometers! Congratulations to pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Cedevita for their first stage win of the race!

A stage win is pretty much the only thing pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Daniel Hoelgaard misses out on, as he takes his 3rd podium spot of the race - and in all likelihood will be the KoM winner! A huge ride in the high mountains by the puncheur, hats off!

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Cameron Bayly takes 3rd place, but misses out both on the stage win and on his task of limiting the Norwegian's success in terms of KoM hunting. Still, a stage podium on Mount Diablo surely must be a highlight for him!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_61.jpg

Highlight? pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png George Bennett already has plenty of those in this race - but today's stage result surely isn't a part of them. The outcome in terms of GC relevance however surely is, as he gains another 37" on pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Ki Ho Choi, who now trails by 2'13".

And therefore slips down one spot to 3rd, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Aleksandr Pluchkin now is the Kiwi's closest rival, being 1'59" behind! Is that a decisive advantage ahead of tomorrow's time trial? We'll find out, but things are definitely looking good now for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett! Let's take a look at who else had a good day:

GC Top 16 | After Stage 19

1.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png George Bennett69h12'48"=
2.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Aleksandr Pluchkin+ 1'59"1

16.pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Geoffrey Bouchard+ 11'51"7


It looks like the most interesting fight should be the one for 2nd and 3rd, as it seems unlikely that pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Choi or pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/p4e.png Pluchkin would be able to attack pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett - or be caught from behind.

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pns.png Aru should be able to fend off pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Zimmermann despite the small gap, being a superior time triallist. However, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Hamilton's Top 10 spot is at very high risk, given that pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/gct.png Kritskiy is just 14" behind him. And pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Hoehn and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ced.png Bouchard, both at the same time, should be fighting it out for the final Top 15 spot - with the local rider having a slight TT advantage.


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_62.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Tom Van Asbroeck should be pretty happy that the breakaway took today's stage win, as pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett didn't score at all and still trails by 13 points. He'd need another amazing TT to take green tomorrow, so it looks pretty likely that the Belgian will tackle the final stage in green.

However, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/ccc.png Ingus Eislers - having the same amount of points - and pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/aab.png Lionel Coutinho, who trails by just 8 points, will try everything to take that jersey away from our long-term leader on the very last day!


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Reports/C1/ToA/S19/mg22_toa_s19_63.jpg

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Daniel Hoelgaard may not have won the stage - but he definitely achieved his most important goal of the day: getting back the KoM lead! And his advantage of 17 points means that pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Lucas Hamilton needs to score both today and on the closing stage to still get the jersey - I'd say it's way more likely that the Norwegian will seal the deal tomorrow already!

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/bwt.png Hermann Pernsteiner is definitely out of it, but still sits in 3rd place - and should stay there unless pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/xr0.png Bennett finishes 1st or 2nd tomorrow.

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Georg Zimmermann makes this an even more amazing race for pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/trg.png Tryg, as there's not much doubt that he'll take home the white jersey - and likely a Top 10 GC result on top of that!

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png Alex Hoehn has moved up to 2nd with his breakaway efforts, but he still trails by 3'51". pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Pascal Eenkhoorn had a solid stage, but is now 7'02" behind and will finish 3rd barring major disaster.

They lost the polka dots in all likeliness, but pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/amc.png Amaysim Cervélo should have sealed the team standings today. Having two riders in the winning breakaway, they now lead 9'23" ahead of pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/mck.png McCormick Pro Cycling.

Former 3rd placed pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/spr.png Sauber drop to 10th in what might be one of the most woeful days in their team history; instead, pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/kmm.png Kraftwerk Man Machine move up to 3rd, 16'17" back! Only pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2022/Micros/pfi.png Philips should have some realistic chances to steal that podium spot from the Germans, trailing by 44".


And that's it. All mountain stages of the 2022 Tour of America are in the books. What is left are two stages in and around San Francisco, with tomorrow's ITT being the final chance to make some changes to the GC! Will you join us again for the penultimate stage? I hope so - see you!
