[Music] [Applause] [Music] Where are we headed today? Are you asking? Where are we going? I’m asking everyone. We are going to Carasson to watch the tour to France. What stage is it, Tina? I don’t know. What? How does Tina not know? None of us know. It’s stage 15. I think it’s stage 15. It’s I know that it’s like nearly 170 km at 2,400 meters of climbing. Wow. You’ve done research from Murray to Murray to Carcasson. Yes. I think they go to the Black Mountains. No, they do. Yeah, that is how they get in the elevation. Anyway, we are on our way to Carason right now. And this morning we had a group check out. We had Melo check out actually. They would have all landed back in England by now. I expect we’ve had a bit of a hectic morning this morning. It’s felt like there has been a lot going on. So it’s nice that we’re going to have the afternoon off, go and watch the tour to France and yeah, maybe we will grab some food in uh oh in Carcasson later on. But we’re we’re off to uh off to Carcasson. Say carcass again. Go. So, [Music] current thoughts on today, folks. I think we might have been talking over your last intro. Yeah, you were. That was a really good intro as well, so I need to do it again. Um, current thoughts. Yeah. Is that a sprint finish? I suspect it’ll be a sprint finish even though it’s a bit hilly. Do you know the game fantasy tour where you have your team and then you put like double point and who you think is going to win? I always put just because it’s the safe bet, but I don’t think today the choice. Okay. Is that your bet for today? Petta won’t win today. No, but I didn’t have be surprised if he did. That’s good for that type of Milan. He’s quite a safe bet for a sprint. I don’t have him on my team. Oh, I haven’t done to get only climbers and GC guys. Yeah, son has got no idea what he’s talking about. He has no idea. Sorry, Son. Yeah, we can say that though cuz you’re in Iceland and we’re here not in Iceland. This is at the moment. I think I’d take a little bit of Iceland cuz it’s probably be a bit fresher. Oh yeah, definitely. All the volcanic ash. We’ll take it. Oh, volcanic ash. Yeah, we’ll take it. A little bit of a backstory. We actually met Tina here in Carcasson for the first time at the tour in 2021. So now because Sonom is currently in Iceland taking uh lots of pictures and doing really cool stuff for the Rift, we’re all here together again, which is really really cool. Um back where it all started watching the tour in 2025, which is mega. But yeah, it’s uh it’s very lush. It’s good to be here and it’s good to be doing something a little bit different this afternoon. I didn’t get to see the tour with everyone in the week. So, being able to come and see it now this afternoon is uh it’s pretty fun. [Music] I don’t want to alarm you, Tina, but we might be missing the caravan. No, we’re not. No. Are we staying positive about it? Yeah, absolutely. It’s not I’m just going to beat up someone from that and steal the hat. Oh, do you mind if I just just ask if you can hold it for a second? Try it on cuz you’re thinking of buying one and then run off. It’s going to work. I think it will work. Look, everyone’s We need to get down here. You can’t get down there. Can’t get down there. Ah. Oh, wow. Can I be honest? Now, now that Tina wants one, I want one, too. I have absolutely been influenced by you. I don’t even know what they look like. I just know they’re red. And they got vevels on them. I could probably make my own. Since when did windows become cool? Where did you get your [Music] God, it’s so incredibly busy. So incredibly busy already. We could go down this way a little bit. Oh, no. This is like 200k. 200k 200 m to go. Oh, come on. What’s just passed? We don’t have the red bucket hats. Do you want to offer to buy one or something? [Music] Tina literally smells like sunshine. What are you using on your skin, babe? To protect yourself from the sun. Yes. Is it Pelatan? No. Skin. Thin lips. It thin. Thin. Oh, yeah. You’ve got thin skinned lips, haven’t you? God. Protect those lips, babe, cuz it’s warm today. I do. It’s deceptive. But they are glowing. Sorry to protect it. Better safe than sorry. What did you order for a drink? Me? Yeah. Cold brew. Oh, yeah. Oh, here they come. Here they come. Wow. How exciting is this? I reckon that’s the cold cold brew. Is it the ice that gives it away? That is the ice that gives it away. I’ve got matcha matcha with coconut milk and I’ve gone coconut milk as I think you’re going to regret this decision. I’m sorry to say. Why? Just give it a go, love. I know what coconut milk is. I know, but I’m worried about your decision. Why? Cuz it’s not very sweet, is it? Yeah, but that’s why I’m having it is sweet enough. [Applause] Woo! Luckily, we did not miss the caravan, but I’ll tell you how wild everyone goes to the caravan. Like, they were throwing mayonnaise out and olive oil and everyone is like scrabbling on the floor to get it. Like, literally all these mayonnaise sachets just like landed by our feet and these hands just everywhere. Everyone’s like, “I’ll take the mayonnaise. I’ll take it.” I’m like, “This is madness.” It is that’s a vibe though. Everyone is like I think it’s going on forever. Like we came sort of mid caravan and it is still going on. [Music] [Applause] Who is that? Oh, can you angle it a little bit further around? We saw him at the coffee shop. How many kilometers out are we? We don’t know. We’re 300 m out, but how many? About eight. 8k. They’re going to be here so soon. Just one. It’s imbalance. Yeah, we think right away. [Applause] [Applause] [Music] What did you think of that, J? Um, I felt good. I was surprised that um someone got off the front and won. That was really like unexpected, right? Yeah. Treasure is unexpected. And now we’re following Tina. Yeah. [Music] Yeah, a few times. But it’s uh this is the story of the race. Successful day at the tour. Afternoon at the tour, I think. though. That was really cool. We saw some riders right by the buses. We got a little bit fanny, didn’t we? We got Tina with us and she she’s she is number one fan girl in the back there. I think she’s probably like telling everyone and I got swapped up with her at time. Oh wow. We’re going to try and find something to eat. Everywhere is absolutely rammed with people as you can imagine. It is so busy. But that was up and close with Garrett Thomas, didn’t we? You did. You were like right in his face just he stopped right next to me so like camera. Hey buddy, get home. That was uh my original Tina, how was your tour to France experience today? Very very good. Did you love it? Is really close. I’m done. I’m never seeing a tour. Mission accomplished. Mission accomplished. Tour to France completed. Yeah. We don’t need to see it again. We’ve done We just done it. It’s been great. Oh, we need it. until next year when we were all excited. No, but the tour of France will be. We don’t care. Darren’s not here. Okay. I’m not seeing it ever again. That was the last. Wow. She’s done. [Music] Okay, folks. Should we do a little sign off for the uh YouTube vlog of the day? So, what what would you like us to say?
