Daryl Impey came in at 105th, Louis Meintjes in 50th"

Oh how quickly things change in the Tour de France! After that climbing stage 12 and a grueling stage 13 to come.

How BRILLIANT was Louis Meintjes on stage 12??
Leaving legends like Contador and Quintana behind - and as if that wasn't enough, passing Froome at the end to take 5th and now 10th overall with a 4 min 51sec gap to new yellow jersey leader Fabio Aru (whom I love btw for his monster climbing abilities).

And Meintjes is still well in the hunt for the young rider white jersey in 2nd place just 2 min 38 behind Simon Yates. I say "just" because anything can happen in the Tour de France as we saw with crashes, disqualifications, photo finishes and time cuts.

This local boy of ours is a really awesome climber and at his young age I can see a legend in the making. He is sticking with and passing the big guns and finished the stage with breath to spare.

Go Louis go! Jy was awesome!!!
