KORU IN THE CLOUDS: Satellite footage has captured what appears to be koru forming in the clouds above New Zealand. The clouds were captured by MetService drifting past Auckland earlier this morning. The footage was taken from 36,000km. Last weekend a Kiwi pilot captured an incredible cloud formation over the South Island. Pilot Geoff Beckett was flying over the Otago region heading to Invercargill and told the Herald he had never seen anything more impressive in his years of aviation. He tagged in WeatherWatch.co.nz to the stunning photo. WeatherWatch chief executive Philip Duncan tweeted that the image and cloud formation were “mind-blowing” and “unreal”. “It’s absolutely mind-blowing, Geoff. Unreal!

CYCING THE Tour de France has burst into life after a fast start and crosswinds blew the peloton apart in the seventh stage, leaving dark horse Tadej Pogacar with a lot of catching-up to do ahead of the Pyrenees on Saturday. Friday’s 168-kilomnetre ride from Millau was dominated by Belgian Wout van Aert, who won his second Tour stage this year, after a brutal start by Peter Sagan’s Bora-Hansgrohe team and crosswinds had split the pack. A sudden acceleration by champion Egan Bernal’s Ineos Grenadiers team split the leading pack again with Slovenian Pogacar, one of the most fancied underdogs of the race, finding himself trapped behind and losing 1:21 on the line. The 21-year-old UAE Emirates rider is now expected to be on the attack in the Pyrenees this weekend. Briton Adam Yates, along with Primoz Roglic, Bernal and Pinot, was on the right side of the break and retained the overall leader’s yellow jersey. — AAP Gisborne team commanding respect of their opponents BASKETBALL by Ben O’Brien-Leaf
