Anyone wants to give me odds for Quinten Hermans to take a GT leaders jersey before Wout, Mathieu and Pidcock?
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

If Taaramae gets pink, we need to check if we didn't return to 2010 |

Great win by Joe! Been a while, one of his best pro rides.
Massivelly disappointed in Almeia, but I sort of hope that this is the wake-up call he needs that he isn't a GT rider. He completely cracked, and Evenpoel is the clear leader now at Deucenick.
Bernal was really strong in the acceleration up the hill |

Is this the first time Dombrowski wins outside the US? Big win for him, quite surprising winners and this shows the beauty of this race.
As for Almeida, can’t be that shocked but surprised how soon he has slipped from the GC battle. The weather might have not helped too as well, but still...
Bernal’s back looked fine today, Evenepoel I believe showed he is slightly human and didn’t go berzerk, let’s see what he does in the
next few stages. |

It's such a weird feeling. After so many years of wanting Dombrowski to take that next step, getting so excited every time he had a good day in the mountains, and then it really just not happening, Dombro got a GT stage win. He outclimbed his companions and got to raise his hands in the air in victory. I'm really happy for him.
Still, a part of it is bittersweet for me. I really thought when he came up that he had a chance to be one of the world's best climbers. The injuries stunted his growth, plus being at Sky, and it just didn't turn out that way. So seeing him win from the break was a bit of a reminder that this is his peak, and that's kind of sad.
Still, it was a great moment, and what a valiant performance. Great job Joe!

Sad to see Bennett doesn't seem to have it, but fully onboard for De Marchi in pink, what a cool moment

I'm very impartial to Landa, but not like this.

Landa's done. Hope he's alright, but that was such a heavy hit. So sad |

I want to boldly declare that Pello Bilbao now wins this Giro. Or finishes top-3. |

And I late replaced Bilbao and Carthy basically with Landa and Almeida in my velogames team... Should really stop trying.
Not having seen anything yet from today but while I am not a big Landa fan, it still sticks to see him at his best always when not being team leader and full of bad luck when leading. |

I picked Sivakov thinking Bernal won't make it till the end. That didn't end well.

My VeloGames team is up in flames, I have Landa and Sivakov in the line-up. |
