Wow…I did not have him winning a GT on my 2022 Hellscape Bingo card!!!
Really impressive ride….bummed for Dumoulin, though.

The real shocker is that Sean Kelly called it.

A question for in between: Does anyone know if the leaders’ bikes are repainted or specially made for this purpose? A completely new bike seems a bit excessive to me, especially with the current shortage…

Gotta say that seeing GCN interview team directors while they’re in the car during the race is very cool. Need more of that as connection allows imo.

In this case it’s just a regular Canyon, but wrapped in pink. Not sure about the TT bike but that one was already with the team before the start of the Giro.

A day late with today’s stage post….pan-flat sprinters’ delight.
Does MVP bother with the sprint since the Maglia Rosa is secure? Dunno. The other question will be how banged up Evan is from Stage 1. I would normally have picked him today, but with that crash, I’m leaning towards Cav. He has Morkov to launch him and there is no one better in the business.
Watching it right now and a chill ride so far. 111 km to go. One part they showed some regular people riding on a bike path next the pros and amateurs were all out while the pros looked like they were were barely pedaling. Lol

Good finale though!
Such a long sprint.

Nice finale today, but the stage wasn’t enough to keep me entertained on the trainer
Looking forward - assuming no injuries to anyone else on the team - how many stages does Cav have to win here to have a legitimate argument that he should go to the TdF?
Right? When Cav launched my first reaction was “nope…WAY too early”. 
No stage tomorrow…travel / transition day from Hungary to Sicily.
I hate all rest days, but especially early ones. Meh.

Since we have a rest day and it’s too early for a TdF thread of it’s own…
Really want to see Cavendish back at the TdF this year with a shot at the stage win #35
No doubt many pixels will be printed on this topic between now and then. Eurosport already has an article up.
Not many big name riders do the Giro & TDF same year, do they?
They were definitely going slow for them.
