Experience Gaviria's triumphs in taking this year's first yellow jersey, and Alaphilippe's delight in winning his first Tour stage, and taking the famous polka-dot jersey as best climber.
Be there, too, when Alaphilippe breaks off from his conversation with world champion Peter Sagan to embrace his teammate Gilbert after he's struggled to make it to the finish having crashed over a wall on the descent of the infamous Col du Portet d'Aspet. Then wince as the extent of his injuries becomes clear: the Belgian's just completed the stage with a broken knee.
Go inside the bruising press scrums, feel the anticipation within the team as stage 9 on the cobbles to Roubaix approaches, and celebrate with the riders, demob happy to reach Paris after three weeks of intense racing.
