Dan Bigham (Silver): “I rode a PB, I road a national record, & I backed up better than I rode in qualifying so it’s the first time I’ve ever done that. I nearly beat Filippo Ganna for goodness’ sake! I’ve got to be proud, but at the same time right now it’s just frustrating ...

MARK CAVENDISH finishes inside the time limit -- "This was one stage I was terrified of. I’m delighted I’m still on the race. The worse part is there are many days like this to come. As much as I missed the Tour de France, I didn’t think of the mountain stages."

Tom Pidcock: World Champion - “It is a great relief. When I attacked, my rear derailleur came loose. My chain kept jumping. I didn't know if I should stop or not. I thought my game could be over any minute. I couldn't go all out because I didn't want to put a lot of pressure.

MARK CAVENDISH: “We knew today we were not going to be as close to the time limit as we were on Sunday, but still we had to be focused the whole day. Everybody was there with me, helping me up & down the mountains. I’m very tired, I guess everybody is."

When a race ignores the suffering a rider goes through to honour the jersey he is wearing, and the work the police and marshalls did to guide Harry Tanfield home, it is a sad day for sport. They may have him down as outside the time limit (by minutes I am guessing), he's a hero

Tom Pidcock: "I had absolutely nothing left at the end there. I struggled a little bit with the distance. Pogacar showed that he was strong. Like I said before the race we knew he was the guy you can't not watch. It was good today. I just lacked a little bit I think."

Adam Yates: "Honestly, I don’t even know what to say. I’m just super happy. We set up the climb for Tadej [Pogacar], and then he attacked…but they eased up on the descent, and I came back. Then I attacked from behind and my brother came across to me, so we could work together"

Geraint Thomas: “When I started (his attack), I realized after a 100 metres: 400 meters is a long way at this altitude. I tried to pace it, but Roglic passed with about a hundred meters to go. I lost a few seconds, but it's nice to get some time on Joao."

Scheldeprijs: Cavendish 3rd: “I went to follow Edward Theuns, but I had to fight with Dylan Groenewegen a bit, so I was in the wind with 450m to go. I had to go very long from where I normally wanted to go - at 250 metres to go if you are well sheltered"
