I'm looking forward to some non-sprint action...

...but having said that there have been some interesting bits and pieces , incidents and finishes.

Adam Yates said on The Cycling Pod that nothing interesting would happen until stage 16 or so -tongue in cheek, I hope

Moschetti moved across and blocked him, then moved away a bit to open a gap, and then came back to shoulder barge him.
Fair. But I wouldn’t be taking a line along the railings in the first place unless it was the inside of a corner.

With only two MTFs in the entire three weeks you'd think te GC boys would be desperate to make both count

Shame for Arensman. Mental demons still there. Then there’s the weird thing with his leg sticking out riding bow legged, didn’t do that last Giro. I’m sure he’ll want to get home soon as possible & climb off.

Some good value in the betting today. Roglic is a strong favourite, but after that Tom Pidcock is 2nd favourite at 9/1.

My 10p has gone on Lucky Lorenzo Fortunato at 16/1
 
Interesting tactical dynamic today. Roglic won't want pink and so RB won't chase the break. But UAE might chase it to ensure Rog goes into pink by default

Indeed. Also, by doing that RB might tire sooner, as one of Rog’s important lieutenants, Hindley, is now out.

After all of that, Taco is still at 48'01", same as after stage 5. Classic Giro communication issues :laugh:
I only checked because I thought it would be a seriously weird thing to do - to declare the race over in GC terms at a random spot, but to give the two in the break their gap as a result.

That was how the 2019 Tour de France was decided, TBF
