    Would have been epic if he'd then gone straight to the back, and crossed the line arm-in-arm with his other teammates. I mean, he didn't do that, right?

    He might not have won, but that was still one impressive express train to the front by Trek.

    Seems 'Marina' is much more common a name further south in Europe. I've met exactly two people with the name.

    They stopped having add breaks every 5 minute?

    2024 Giro CQ Game

    So, just to be clear; if a rider drops out early, but is then allowed to go race elsewhere, and scores points, those points still count for this game, right? No? DAMMIT!

    You shouldn't have to be bound to only use your subscription on certain devices. The whole point of a subscription service is that you can just log in on any device, and just... watch.

    Eurosport commentary

    I've once gotten a mail where they were all "YOU WERE LOGGED IN ON A DIFFERENT DEVICE! IS SOMETHING GOING ON?" So, I wouldn't have found it all that weird if it wasn't possible. Well, I would have found it weird, but it wouldn't have surprised me.

    7:20 isn't early. Lazy bastard.

    Also, I guess "crashing when you're just ahead of the peloton, but then get overtaken while you're on the ground" got interpreted as being in the peloton.

    And (elsewhere-)elsewhere in France - Mirabelle - the GC was won by French guy with a rather Swedish-ish name: Nilsson-Julien.

    Was he on guard? (It's 'gaard', like 'Vingegaard')

    What an absolutely INSANE finish in Mayenne! Norsgaard, Retailleau, and Sorrarain had a small gap. Norsgaard got dropped. A rider - UAE? - bridge from the peloton. Caught Norsgaard, and then took them both down in a crash. Picture disappeared. Retailleau won.

    Rather strange to see EF riders in their normal jerseys. Gotten so used to the special Giro jerseys.

    If anyone had forgotten just how old he is. (Let's just ignore that he's on 2 years older than I am...)
