The Pro Road Cycling Thread

I still haven’t seen footage of it, but crestfallen to get home earlier to discover how for down the standings he has fallen.
I mean, a crash in the neutral warm up zone, ffs.
Edit. G Thomas
 
Surprised a drink was needed in the neural zone ! Such bad luck. Any clips of how it happen ?

Watched the highlights last night and for some reason they dont look to be going as fast as in the tour de France. I'm sure they are going just as fast but watching them on the final climb, perhaps the wider more exposed roads give that impression !

Wonder if G will start today ?

Found a clip going fast for a neutral zone ?



Odd how so many bidons were flying around even after G crash another bison comes flying across the road

Lots of bottles came out of the cages due to the cobbles.

Absolutely gutting to see what happened to G. Ineos to make a decision on his participation later this morning. If he was to lave the race and go to the Vuelta, you could see him joined by Froome (who looks miles away from form), Carapaz and Bernal.

I don't know what happened to Yates. I hope it was just a jour sans. With the TTT , ITT and brutal third week, he could though make up time on some of the others to even challenge. Yates is by no means amazing at TT but he will gain time on the other GC candidates, for sure. With 50km of time trialling, we could easily see him pull back two or three minutes on some.
 
As a welsh cycling fan, to say im gutted is a fucking understatement. Just got in from work so not sure if G is still racing. Like Manc in London said, I woul love it if hes dropped out with the hope that he joins the Vuelta team. Go for broke and put all the big guns in the team.

Edit: Out with a broken pelvis. Shiiiiiit

Riding well over 100m and 18km up a volcano with broken pelvis. How?!
 
G rode with a broken hip/ pelvis when the TDF started in Sardinia if I remember correctly and completed the tour.
With 3 TT in this years Giro it mush have felt like a "its my time " moment.
I saw the end of todays stage but didn't hang around for updates did Swift get back in time ?
