For the cyclists today was the last flattish day before heading into the Pyrenees tomorrow. Even still it was a bit too lumpy for some of the sprinters. Sagan looked very relieved to get his first win after three second places.

I have been doing well with my spinning. I finished off the last single, then plied the multicoloured merino. Here it is still a little damp from its wash:

You can definitely still see quite a lot of pink in the finished yarn. I am reserving judgement until I have knitted with it.

Today’s coin is a French 20 Euro Cents to celebrate Blel Kadri going into the polka dot jersey.
