Is Albanian food good?

Idunno, but it should be good for you..? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albanian_cuisine#Health_effects

Albanian cuisine falls within the category of the "Mediterranean diet," which includes a high consumption of seafood, vegetables, fruit, nuts, and olive oil; however, beef, veal, lamb, and pork are commonly consumed as well.[42] It is believed that because of this diet Albania has a very high life expectancy when its economic power is compared to other countries, characterized by some researchers as the "Albanian paradox".[42]

Bernal back on his own second bike.

Ah yes, Skineos and bike changes... Classic!

 

[Andre]

nice bike Bernal

 

[Salvarani]

Many punctures...

Could get tricky if the race would explode on the next climb

Cars could be far behind

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Is Albanian food good?

Yes.

 

[Netserk]

Van Aert at the back of the peloton.

 

[Red Rick]

Nobody seems to want to pace it.

 

[Netserk]

Lidl-Trek dictating the pace on the climb.

 

[Red Rick]

Proper embarrassing from so many teams already

 

[Salvarani]

Astana made a promise to do something

Lets see

 

[Sciatic]

Surprises me to say that one thing I miss about the Sky train days is that I liked that better than this riding en bloc up the start of climbs.
Having said that Trek has taken on the pacing.

 

[Netserk]

Vine is also at the back of the peloton, so I suppose UAE have no plans.

 

[Samamba]

Van Aert already at the back

 

[titan31]

Anyone want do anything?

They're not even gaining time on the break so pace can't even be too hard

 

[Netserk]

Vino!!!!

Wout: i'll see you in Italy lads

 

[Gigs_98]

Peak horrible camera work

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Vine is also at the back of the peloton, so I suppose UAE have no plans.

Or his knee does 13k better than 100+ and he will drop soon.
Like van Aert just now.

 

[Salvarani]

Astana made a promise to do something

Lets see

Thank you Vino

 

[AmRacer]

Wout is dropped

 

[titan31]

Love how we missed the attacks as the camera guy couldn't work out how to zoom out

 

[Netserk]

Fortunateo attacked, Bilbao and a QS rider followed. Van Aert is dropped. 3 more riders try to bridge across.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Michael Storer attacks

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Couple of attacks at least, nice. Lidl won't worry at all though, even if a group gets half a minute at the top, still enough to reel them back.
