As always, Tro Bro delivers a lot. What an exciting finale. Gotta love those Coupe de France/Napoleons Game Cup rounds better than some WT "classics".

Gaudin would have probably won if not for the crash. He was dropped by the group lots of times but always came back and even dropped them, almost catching Laporte.
Great win by Laporte btw. And excellent race action, as always.

After finishing in Chiavari for two years, Giro dell'Appennino (1.1) returns to Genova and Passo della Bocchetta as the crucial climb. Race takes place on the same day as Liege-Bastogne-Liege.

He was part of a three man break with Antunes and Masnada, which had gained about 3 minutes on the peloton by the finish. Impressive.

http://www.cicloweb.it here the "streaming" of the Giro dell'Appennino, one of the fallen/former prestigious italian classics (but the organizers are not very smart holding the race the same day of Liege).
finish back to Genoa, Ciccone at the sprint over legendary Amaro Antunes and Masnada (androni)
Ciccone attacked with 64 km from the finish.

In the Tour de Bretagne, Fortuneo-Samsic's Dutch sprinter Bram Welten has now crashed inside the last kilometer two days in a row.

Amazing. First ever double victory for Ecuador in an UCI race in Europe?

Just noticed on procyclingstats that the Belgrade Banjaluka race has gone 2.1, so now is a pro race without any PCT team? Can anyone tell me more about this one? https://www.procyclingstats.com/race/banja-luka-belgrade-ii/2018/stage-1
Apparently there's a race called the Tour of Mesopotamia.
Aren't races usually named after current countries/regions?
But I'm looking forward to the Tour of the Holy Roman Empire.

Re:
Mesopotamia is, if I'm not mistaken, old Greek for "Land between the rivers", sometimes also named as "Land of two rivers" referring to Tigris and Euphrates. As far as I know the term is still used to describe the geographical region along the rivers reaching from the Persian Golf to southern Turkey. It never really was the name of a political structure.

Re:
Gazprom (PCT) is there. There are/were some 2.1 races in Central and Eastern Europe with a single local PCT team only.

Re:
Still, at least the entity to which they refer to has actually existed, it's not the Giro di Padania.
You could argue that the Brixia Tour falls into that category.RedheadDane said:

Gustavo Veloso way too good for this time of year. The Volta is doomed. Sevilla crashed in the last turn and took Strakhov with him.
Re:
César is good at this time of year because he's lost his leadership to Alarcón so he can't bank everything on August now.
Yea, this course is suckage. It was right to stop doing the Morcuera MTF, because it made everything else pointless, but it's not very inspiring.Valv.Piti said:
