that looked like a asma pump..

it was a joke

 

[sir fly]

Eh, he got it from the race doctor, can't be too mysterious

The Tour declared more than eighty years ago they won't supply riders with enhancers.
It's time for the Giro to do the same.

 

[RedheadDane]

Yeah... let's just leave those things right there in the road. That shouldn't cause a problem...

 

[BlueRoads]

Sagan looks good in purple. More his colour than green, I think.

 

[tomorrow]

wtf is mathews and sagan trying to do? why are they up front now? There's no point in pursuing the intermediate sprint and they can't be thinking they will hold on to the finish

 

[Jagartrott]

A puzzling stat on Eurosport:

Sagan in GTs:
16 victories, 30 2nd places, 16 3rd places
= 63 podiums

Er...?

 

[gunara]

German Eurosport triggering me again, speaking about how the EF jerseys appeal to young people (teenagers). Just when I was almost over it.

Any teenagers here?

The last time I was being a teenager Gewiss won the Giro with that teenager-friendly jerseys and I didn't care

yes, there is one in +/-10km

 

[sir fly]

The closer the camera gets the more appealing EF jersey looks.

Gap coming down fast now. Keldermerckx wants the stage.

 

[tomorrow]

yes, there is one in +/-10km

But there're no points jersey points, and all the bonus seconds and intermediate point competion points will taken by the break

 

[richwallone]

It looks like the peloton is waking up... They shaved off 1'30" from the break advantage.

[Tour de Berghem]

Yates already in the back of the peloton

 

[dgodave]

That not the prettiest castle ever.

 

[richwallone]

Lots of of overcast and grey days in this Giro...

 

[Carols]

The last time I was being a teenager Gewiss won the Giro with that teenager-friendly jerseys and I didn't care

The last time I was a teenager the jerseys were Dull, Dull, Dull. Gimondi won his 2nd Giro and Merckx was tossed from the race with a positive test!

I prefer the duck version.

It's about realizing what the design is about and that's when you get closer, I figure.
Maybe they could've done it with a larger pattern.

 

[richwallone]

OK, let the fireworks begin... The break is on the climb now Less than 3 minutes gap.

 

[Eclipse]

Ganna is going to ruin so many hopes and dreams over the course of his career

 

[Lexman]

Hagen pff and he's the mountain domestique for Froome next year?

 

[richwallone]

Aaaaand, the break is "breaking" apart... Some, like Carretero, are realizing that they need to up the pace in order to survive, and some can't keep up, like Restrepo...

 

[SafeBet]

Hagen really has no shape to drop so early from this group.

Attacks from the peloton: De Gendt, Rubio, Bouchard, Guerreiro.
