    Trek's first World Tour level win of the season. Just AG2R, Astana, Katusha and Cannondale without one now.

    Yuss. Did he call him Mick Jagger?
  • Wouldn't be the worst comparison, to be fair. They both look like worn out leather boots these days.

    Has TJ sabotaged himself as per usual for the Giro with the crash or is it just a little road rash?

    More likely he has sabotaged himself by not being good enough, tbh.

    (watch him win now :D)

    Some riders out front, 50" advantage. 12km to go. BMC, Orica and Movistar leading the group. Sky noticeable by their absence near the front.
    Riders no doubt dreaming of hot showers, warm fluffy towels and steaming mugs of cocoa.
  • Il pleut beaucoup

    Kirby's started with the 'do they believe' shiz

    Have to say, the Swiss know how to construct a mind numbingly boring race.
    I mean, what are supposed to do on this climb?

    It's Switzerland: it's a mountain finish: it's Albasini.
    Meh, meh and thrice meh.
