Giro D’Italia

Not Giro related but a shout out to Tom Pidcock for winning the World Short Course X-Country championship a few days ago in Czech Republic. Last at the end of lap 1 but first at the end of final lap 11.

He also one the spring version the day before. He is some rider across so many disciplines!!

Yep, watched that as well. Hope he doesn't burn out.

That’s a bad accident. Haven’t managed to watch that much of race this year, hopefully will get to see final week. Cheering G on, he deserves another win.

Tom Pidcock is an amazing bike rider across different cycling disciplines.👍

Bad weather over the coast couple of days have curtailed the racing somewhat, with the favourites waiting for better conditions before really getting down to business. It hasn't helped that there have been 44 withdrawals already, so most teams are below full strength.

Heard him on TV this evening saying that it's his final year cycling ! wonder if he's going to take up road repairs with all that gravel & grit from his and his friends  ( aging ) bodies    ??

Good day for GT in the GC.

It was indeed. Great to see G doing well, fingers crossed now he can take it to the final day. Primoz Rogliz didn’t look too comfortable to me, we have missed some of race, but I gather he might have been injured in a fall? 

GT has extended his lead today, but Primoz was pushing it so it looks as if the Pink Jersey is going to one of those two. What happens over the next two days should decide the ultimate victor. Hope GT can be that guy.

Exciting finish yesterday, it looked as though G had got the better of Rogliz, but then the tables turned. Going to be an exciting finish to this race🤞
