all together, 86kms to go.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

EF managed to get a win with Hobbs who just managed to catch a late attacker before the line.

Does Tour of Tukey have a very challenging route this year? As always, the official profiles tell their own stories (I appreciate that they include the lengths of the neutral zones), but it doesn't seem like the worst parcours they've ever had.

The Kiran climb on stage 4 is not even a half Babadağ, but it should still cause plenty of damage.

Stage 6 has the Selçuk Meryem Eni/Meryemana climb.

2013, never forget.

Covi wins the sprint in Asturias. Second Jordi Lopez (Euskaltel). Cortina third.

No trace of Gaviria

 

[RedheadDane]

8 riders with just around 1:30 in Turkiye.
A little under 60 Ks to go.

Frankly; I'm not even gonna bother listing the name, coz they probably gonna get caught.

Just do it the Ilmaestro way and spell the names of some other people.

Gotta wonder how many Atatürk and Erdogan flags the broadcasters will show us, strong start so far.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

The Tour of Turkey flat stage breaks always have a bit more going on, always an entertaining watch

Rutland. Melton. Psycho. Killer. Cicle. Classic. Is. Back.

I'm sorry... ?

I'm sorry... ?

Cicle Classic sounded like Psycho Killer to me...

Random The Hobbit song...

Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away ere break of day
To seek the pale enchanted gold.

Turkey will likely be Kristoff biggest chance to get to the 100 win mark. 17kms to the sprint.

 

[RedheadDane]

Kristoff crash!

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Chance wasted for Kristoff there, but at least didnt look like he went down.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

yea, the entire unox team went down or what was left of it
edit: just some avoidance issues. Nothing serious.

 

[Salvarani]

Dehairs got it?

He did go down. Or maybe not quite...

Dehairs - who does have hair - wins.

Yeah, unless we see a Sayar-level sputnik performance from a CT team this race should be a lock for them.

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

In the replay it was pretty clear he didnt hit the deck

Yeah, he just looked like he was about to attack some poor Picnic guy...
