After feeling run down the last few days and even had some chills, I am now again able to attack. Yesterday I was underway a short while and today I tried my luck about 60 km before the finish. However, the category 1 climb proved to be too much for me, especially since my previous escape group contained some good climbers like Barguil, who really wanted to fight for the mountain points. I was caught again after about 20 kilometers, but I am still doing well and actually just happy that I could recover. Now we have our rest day and then I will try again. Of course I am particularly looking forward to the time trial.
