The art of not conveying any information about the tour de Suisse despite being the spoiler thread begins here

On-site weather report from the top of the main climb: hot and humid, with thunderstorm warnings in place, which are currently forecast to arrive at around the finishing time.
Should make for a sketchy run-in for the men, and a questionable ride home for me

I, like a true warrior, abandoned my post after the first passage to try and beat the weather home. I failed.
Still, here’s Julian in full flight at the beginning, checking on the riders on the other side of the hairpin.

In other news, I got a smile and a thumbs up from Emma Norsgaard after yelling that I loved her podcast 🥰

The next 2 stages, on-paper, shouldn't impact the GC. But, based on today's exploits & time gaps, I'm expecting a lot of breakaway fighting and some big names will try to get away. At least the rain is finished for the week after today's storms.

Turned on for my first dose of coverage this year to hear the ultimate spoiler, Kirby on commentary.
