Chrisull Aug 2022 4:48pm, 23 Aug 2022 19,465 posts	0 Chrisull Tao GH ahead of Simon Yates too. But yes the short punchy climbs often give a slightly different picture, although I'd expect the top few to feature throughout now.

Big_G Aug 2022 2:01pm, 24 Aug 2022 1,902 posts	0 Big_G Yeah, terrible for her (As an aside, I’m someone who was there when my wife died aged 38, albeit her death was in very different circumstances to this story. It’s something that I dwell on even now though, nearly 8 years on).
