For the second straight day at the 2023 Tour of Britain, Olav Kooij sprinted to a stage win after a supreme leadout from Jumbo-Visma teammate, Wout van Aert.
As the race entered Wrexham for the final kilometre however, there was a nasty crash in the bunch, with some pointing to Kooij as the man to blame. In the intense battle for positioning, Tobias Lund Andresen is nudged into a cone at the side of the road, crashing hard onto the Welsh tarmac.

- "Anatomy of a G.O.A.T." OK, that's great!!! I've been saying all along: Tadej Pogačar-Pogi is the G.O.A.T... period. Not only in cycling... but he's the greatest sportsman that ever lived !!! But let's take a look of what real foolishness is. We have many many fools, also on this site, saying that Pogi is "boring,"... he's making cycling "boring"??? I can't believe what's comming out of their deteriorating bad breath mouths. So I guess Merckx, Hinault, Indurain, Fasto Coppi and Anquetil were also boring at their time!?!? I guess Michael Jordan, Le Bron, Gretzky, Messi, Ronaldo, Shumacher, Novak Džoković, Federer, Rossi, Marquez, Phelps, Michaela Shiffrin, Venus Williams, Bolt, Lewis Hamilton... etc. were all boring. PS: Many cycling fans that think that way, have to get a brain scan. Ad acta!!!PogiSloFans06-11-2026
