Really enjoying the vids roturn - great work there. How are you doing them?
Skidpants had a great stage there - only the almighty Cunego was stronger and Red Bull alumni De Bie.
No gaps - but this is to be expected in the main with hilly crap. Good days still for Ignatiev and the Metinvest maulers. These sorts of stages were what gave Ricco the win some years back but now they are powderpuff for the mountains.
Right Gear ratio time to get unsluggish time for a bit of lovin with your wife and kids aka Cavendish wake up time.

PCM offers video function actually by CTRL+R.
Only 1 min or so max I think.
Unfortunately only will offer videos for the first 10 stages I think as I lacked time afterwards.  |

Very nice performance from Roux there, more than I expected really. With Meiji and Metinvest already taking wins, it's got to be our turn soon surely? Great reports as ever roturn  |

Thanks roturn, top quality stuff

Well, that's a goal not achieved then.
Fucking shit PCM version for the man game as has been said before. The versions we keep changing from and to make a larger impact on team scores than actual rider transfers. Makes it very hard to actually plan a season.

Nice to see Velits not losing any time on the first hilly stage and finishing safely just behind the top 10. Nice to see Cunego winning, congrats valv.

Good from Guldhammer to not lose any time other than the bonifications, and also nice to see him close to the front of the bunch in the final kilometers.
Congratulations to valverde321, must be nice to see the Giro legend bag a stage so early in the race. Very good day for Ignatiev as well, keeping the jersey safe. This will be a massive first week for them! |

Some dirty tacticts by Festine there, blocking Ulanwoski and Tzortzakis accelating at that point making sure Ula had to lose his wheel and go through the wind from a low speed on himself... Shame on you!

Goss back to his loser attitude. Seriously, I hate him for doing that bad with no Swift or Bewley or Mohs here!
Not smart either, it seems. Could have been a nice stage to take the points lead....
Napo winning is somehow cool though. Meiji & Metinvest going mad with stage wins left and right.

CUNEGO \O/
Nice from Kneisky to give us the top 2 KOM spots.
But Roelandts coming 145th on a sprint stage is ridiculous, silly AI

Yeah Coquard ended up giving Napo enough time to out sprint Tzortzakis himself 
If I were Tzortzakis I would be a little pissed

Meiji are on a roll! Congratulations again 
Coquard again doing a great leadout, but his acceleration might be too much to handle for Tzortzakis after all. It will be very interesting to see how they do on the next flat stages, as if the gap between those two just grows for every stage, the only thing the great leadout will get Tzortzakis is opening the sprints too early.
Good to see the GC riders safe, just one more stage before the mountains are here  |

Pathetic. Stauff got stuck on Vesely´s rear tire, and even Maglia Rosa beat him very easily.
So far very disappointing Giro.
Congrats to Meiji for double after miserable start.

Thought the greek would grab another stage here - looked like a really promising lead-out for quite some time. Anyway cool see Napo winning here. Valv knows to take well use of his italian veterans.

Ugh, work all frigging day for 4th, pah.
Again enjoyed the report and vids and you can see Guerao has some speed. Just bummed cannot get it together for something at end. I think giro is weakest sprint train so hopefully we can compete in other GTs.

Came here before looking at stage 5. I can tell I wont be disappointed
Several stage wins would definitely make up for a lesser GC position, and that was a great win by Napo.
Love the videos so much! Thanks again Roturn!

Nothing big so far from 1t4i. Hopefully we can snatch a victory here.

Mikhail with another top7 in the fifth stage, perfecto. 
Congrats to Meiji again, promoted teams are rolling in the Giro so far, arent they?
