Stage 8  »  Périgueux  ›  Bergerac

Not much to say; another bunchsprint won by non-TCAT Merlier. Kooij (BDC/GHS) got third place ahead of Philipsen (VFL) and Bittner (EVC/REX).

Much like yesterday, REX won the most points with Pedersen placing 12th and Godon 14th. REX also moves into second by a single point, with the top three less than 100 points apart. (And since I've been in the business of recording all time stagewin stats lately, the Royals are now at 10, the twelfth team to reach double digits.)

Standings after stage 8:

Pos	±		Team	Pts Ove	Pts Today
1st	(=)		Maritiimi-Maxhestic Mençeis (MMM)	3368	+222
2nd	(+1)		Els Talossaes Rexhital (REX)	3286	+340
3rd	(-1)		Cyclohexane (CHX)	3285	+222
4th	(=)		Gordon Hiatus Support Team (GHS)	3128	+282
5th	(=)		Esqipă Velocostă (EVC)	3049	+288
6th	(=)		Velociposse Florencia (VFL)	2952	+272
7th	(=)		Cézembre Caçeirs dals Mailintzarăs (BDC)	2582	+249
8th	(=)		Cézembre Fieschā (CFA)	2298	+112
9th	(=)		Naziun Cjovani (CJO)	1920	+76

One stage left before the first restday: a rolling breakaway friendly stage suited for a breakaway. Could be a little too climb-heavy for classic-type riders like Pedersen (EVC/MMM/REX) and van der Poel (REX/VFL), though this is another of those stages Pedersen has to go for if he wants to keep his lead in the points classification. Maybe better suited for climbers down in GC like Healy (CJO), Carapaz (BDC/CHX/CJO), Baudin (CHX/GHS) or Arensman (CJO), but more versatile stagehunters like Abrahamsen (EVC/VFL) are also bound to try and get a say. Should be a fun watch!

Ok additional nominations really are open now. Everyone gets 1 additional nomination 12 hours afterr their previous pick was posted. Im counting Barclamius 4th pick as submitted at exactly noon tst.

I ate a lot of spicy stuff, including Buldak noodles (came with its downsides). Now I can eat kimchi with no problem.

That's a pretty fun itinerary. You're going to want to make sure that you eat some fresh seafood in Busan. One of my favorite evenings in the country was spent on a date with my wife in a little seaside restaurant with stuff they'd pulled out of the ocean just a few hours before.

Today, I will be playing a game of Twilight Imperium with my friends. It's the first time any of us have played. It's a famously good but also famously long board game. Anyone who's played who might have some tips for me?

Good job to my team!
