The Race
Agen to Pau is a 165.3 route. There will be leg breaking climbs in the Pyrenean foothills and possibly a break a way group will be victorious.
The Snack
Figs preserved in balsamic vinegar are on the spoon today. This is a sort of jam but not really. The figs have a jam like texture and are sweet. The vinegar adds a different twist with a tartness and freshness that will perk your taste buds. This is very unique.
Biniam Girmay is getting an extra special shout out today for dominating the sprint portion of the Tour. He won yesterday and also won two other sprint stages. Winning three stages in the Tour is an elite accomplishment. He is exciting to watch and will be a force in future sprint stages. He also has the distinction of being the first black man to ever win a stage in the Tour de France. Biniam Girmay Hailu is from East Africa in a country called Eritrea. He currently rides for UCI World Team Intermarché–Wanty. Congratulations Biniam and thanks for making the Tour exciting.
