Tour de France: Cobbled conditions
Olympic medalist and World Champion Rob Hayles shares his concern with 5 live's Rob Hatch about the wet conditions the riders will face on Stage Five of the Tour de France.
The cyclists are expected to ride over a series of seven cobbled routes in the Ypres-Arenberg Porte du Hainaut. This stage originally included nine cobbled stretches but has been reduced because of the wet conditions.
