Hoogerland, the man got up after flipping through the air and into a bob-wire fence (as we say in Texas) and finished, taking the Polka Dot jersey, King of the Mountains.
He didn’t look like he was having a fun day near the end (no pun intended) but if he can carry on he’ll be in the KotM shirt come Tuesday.
Yah, there may be some EPO going on with a lot of them, but I admire these cats. He probably can’t even have an Advil for that, UA fail for sure. Aspirin, maybe? Dunno. But he is lucky to be able to climb back in the saddle and make it to the finish. I hope he is on the bike at the start of the next stage.
