Get ready for another miserable weather day. Cold and rain are expected, so as a breakaway to take the win. I took a look at who are the big contenders to win from it, how Movistar's lead affects the race and review Mortirolo.

It's been a long time since we've seen the sprinters in action, tomorrow is the final day and who can mess inbetween Démare and Ackermann? Also, will it really be a sprint? There's a pretty good explanation to why we may not see it.

A recap on a crazy day, an explanation to why tomorrow is yet another breakaway day, and who are those that can win from the break. Also, my view on how the GC riders are set to behave tomorrow, as the Giro approaches it's grand finale!

The big climax of the Giro, a 5750-meters of climbing stage in the backend of a Giro, a brutal race that's been so far and nowhere to hide through the Alpine loop, I go deep on what I expect for tomorrow and how much chaos can be caused!

The final conclusions on the Giro! All the teams reviews, all my opinions on it and a recap on what we've been through. Also, a rating on the teams, do you agree with them?

Tour de France's little brother, in the Dauphiné there will be hard racing for a full week, lots of climbing and strong profiles with a climber-packed startlist that perhaps promises more than the Tour itself.

Hard opening day in the Dauphiné, one possible for the sprinters, the puncheurs and the climbers. All will depend on who gets in the breakaway and how they cope with it.

A hard stage tomorrow, one that will set some gaps, possibly the first serious challenge for the overall contenders but they will be mixed in with the puncheurs.

A day for the pure sprinters at long last, the rainy days continue but the fast men will come to the fore after what's been a hard start of the race.

Time-trial day in the Dauphiné, GC fight but also a stage on the line, to be discussed between the climbers and also some time-trialists and puncheurs mixed.

Another sprint finish in the Dauphiné expected, an overview of a dramatic day in the time-trial and who can beat Bennett?

We enter the Alps with a long and hilly stage, there's a good chance the breakaway succeeds but it can turn to a GC fight for the win aswell.

The final big race before the Tour, in Suisse there's sights of mountains, hills, time-trials and everything you would want in a race. Sprinter field is super but there's lots of climbers to light up the race!

A short time-trial to kick things of in Suisse, big time gaps aren't to be expected but some GC riders will try to take advantage of the situation and there's a stage to fight for.

Just out of curiosity, if fit, what do you think McNulty can manage? Looking forward to his first big race in Europe, I think he’s a steady guy so no pressure to perform which is the best advise he can get. |

The race's sole summit of the finish, the hardest stage where the main gaps are set to be made, it's a day you don't want to loose.

Yeah, I’ll keep an eye on him nevertheless - think he will be quiet but who knows. Rally should be a fun team this week. |

The final stage in the Dauphiné, there's a history of raids and complete turn-arounds on the final day, and the profile is perfect for such to happen.
