Ricarda Bauerfeind (Canyon-SRAM) was keeping the peloton at bay as she descended down into Albi. With a thirty-six second advantage with just six and a half kilometers to race the only company she had was the Shimano neutral service moto. With every turn of her pedals, well in this case her wheels, it was seeming more likely that we were going to be treated to yet another solo victory in the second Tour de France Femmes. And from a relative neophyte to the women's pro peloton, at that. She definitely has the legal aero-tuck down. It looks to me like the motos are having trouble keeping up with her even on these wide sweeping turns.
