Look at Ciancellara go.
So happy to see him with good legs again. Why they didn’t let him ride sooner in his previous position again, makes me wonder. Hope they let him ride the Vuelta. Good for his confidence this first pro victory.

Nych, Marti, Guerin, Cadena, Pena are gone on the gravel stage, sort of like a Volta version of the elite group that assembled in Strade 2021

It's his first pro win, so that'll be a factor.
Anyway, this one definitely goes down as one of my favourite cycling memories this year. Loved every minute of that, so good to see him back in form.

First pro win, but most definitely an end to all the misery.

Him never getting contract at pct level is a big mystery to me.

This seems normal for Voltas back when W52 was the dominant team, glad that they are keeping up with the Volta spirit

Israel rider was Brady Gilmore. Feirense rider is either Diogo Gonçalves or Fábio Oliveira. All three - plus Cesar Martingil of Tavfer - were fined CHF500 and 25 UCI ranking points for assault between riders so clearly something worthy of punishing on the part of the Feirense rider happened either before this to generate this reaction from Gilmore, or in retaliation to this.
Interested by this reply from a long-dormant twitter account which appears to list itself as a comedic account but largely only posts serious takes on cycling - and hasn't done so since July 2024:
"Brady Gilmore is dangerous. In Tour de Bretagne last year the dude started a fight in the middle of the pelo. Even threw a bottle at another rider all whilst going down a decent at 60kph. Not even his teammates managed to calm him down. «He’s got ADHD» they said to the rest of us"
Obviously this implies that the anonymous user is within at least the semi-pro péloton or staff of a team at a reasonable level to have encountered Brady on multiple occasions. The fact the account is said to be comic could be a reason to dismiss comment but simultaneously there are no punchlines or anything that appears to be said in jest and it would be a strangely targeted jibe even if so.
If there is a grain of truth to this, and it's only one voice so it could just as readily be nonsense or coincidence, it's probably something his team is going to have to work on now he's signed into the WT-level péloton for the next few years, there's going to be a lot more scrutiny and visibility if he loses his temper or does something dangerous.
After having spend the entire race today in about 3600m altitude the result in Himalaya (stage 3) is as follows:
Tomorrow's stage will happen mostly in the 3900m region. Permanent thin air.

Average speed just under 51, what speed do they hit in the sprint at this altitude?
