French Grand D\u00e9part, fully French route, a field of excellent French riders and a lot of French fans. Bravo.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

From one GOAT to another. Pauline Ferrand-Pr\u00e9vot showed her strong legs early and helped teammate Marianne Vos to yet another victory on the biggest stage. <\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

Making the dream work.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

This race showed the value of experience. After Vos’s win, the oldest rider in the race Mavi Garc\u00eda held off the peloton to take a massive win for Liv-AlUla-Jayco.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, in her very successful second attempt at a pro road career, Mauritian champion Kim Le Court-Pienaar<\/a> fought her way into an historic yellow jersey.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

Isn’t cycling the best?<\/p>\n

Speaking of the best, Lorena Wiebes is absolutely unmatched in sprints.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

Another year another potentially decisive crash for Demi Vollering, however this time around she didn’t lose any time and had a supportive team to help her to the finish. Get yourself teammates like these.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Thomas Maheux<\/p>\n

A much deserved green jersey.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

The hint for what was to come might be in the riders’ faces. One looks rather more comfortable.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

For the stage win though it’s no pain no gain.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

And boy did Le Court-Pienaar gain. A massive stage win and back in yellow. She just keeps getting better and better.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

Perspective.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Thomas Maheux<\/p>\n

Breton rider Ma\u00ebva Squiban was the break through of the race.<\/p>\n

After team leader Elisa Longo Borghini had to abandon early, UAE Team ADQ couldn’t have asked for more.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

Back-to-back stage wins is some achievement.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Thomas Maheux<\/p>\n

Dreamland.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

The race truly kicked into gear in the mountains on Stage 8.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Thomas Maheux<\/p>\n

That’s when Pauline pounced.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Thomas Maheux<\/p>\n

An utterly dominant climbing display.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

Resplendent.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Thomas Maheux<\/p>\n

She came. She saw. She conquered.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Pauline Ballet<\/p>\n

This one might take a while to sink in.<\/p>\n

\"\"ASO\/Jennifer Lindini<\/p>\n

These two go way back.<\/p>\n
