  1. I made a joke about Mayo being "very clean" today after he finished
    behind the main bunch on today's stage.

    Turns out he had a flat tire inside 25 km to go and had to chase. So I
    guess he didn't quite make it.

    It was on the OLN coverage. A teammate gave him a wheel. The rest of
    team paced him back to the bunch, but he was caught at the back
    entering the finale and got caught behind the split.

    And Lafferties pick punctured at the bottom of the Cauberg, although he
    didn't lose as much as mayo.

    Correction he lost a lot more (4:05) than mayo (0:17) and I see Ronald
    says it was a fall; at the time Liggett seemed to think it was a puncture.

    Because he was intefered with within the last 3 km, he was credited with
    finishing with his group (i.e, the first group, at +5 seconds). Think of
    it as a virtual finish.

    It happened off camera so I'm not sure. Apparently, he got interfered with
    by a drunk who not only knocked him down but then mocked him while he was
    on the ground. Casar looked like he was in some pain when he finally
    crossed the line. I think he should've ridden back down the course to look
    for the drunk and punched him out, sort of like Merckx on Puy de Dome.
