It's The Day. TV is live and waiting for the start, let's go.

Almeida, Kelderman and McNulty were the big winners today, apart from Ganna of course. Well, we can count Honoré as well (assuming the answer is yes)

Rohan Dennis going for another fine due to his clothing not being compliant with UCI rules.

Ganna putting down 660 W on the asphalt on the climb, sweet lord.

Bassino! And what a run for Vlhova.

Robinson throws my last hope for some Predictor points down the drain.

Ouch, painful crash by Molano.

Vini-Zabu's Matteo Spreafico and Simone Bevilacqua really don't want to finish the Giro and so decided to go for a two-man time trial, by the looks of it. That is just really dumb (or smart if they indeed want out).

Yeah, that was awesome to see. Finishing and very first thing he did was lift Kiplimo into the air

That was a fantastic run by Kiplimo, who also happens to shatter the Ugandan record by over a minute.

Very impressive surge from young Jacob Kiplimo Joshua Cheptgei had to let go and is hanging on for dear life for a chance for bronze.

Hola VPN reaching the 1-hour free limit (which can be refreshed but needs a small break to do so) not even 3 seconds after the finish, that was a nervous last two minutes

Ouch, crash in the lead group Jepkosgei and Yeshaneh, the two fastest women, going down.

One of my favourite sports days of the year, winter has come!

RIP this person's life

Yeah, but they don't show the LOTR trilogy (in extended version), for which both my dad and I have waited years for it to be in a cinema here Part 1 tonight, part 2 next week and part 3 most likely the week after that.

They could keep the current cinema rules forever, nobody on the two seats left, the two seats right and two seats diagonally in both sides and both back and front are kept empty as well. Masks on until you're at your seat, which as far as I can see is listened to well. Excellent.

Lol. First of all, Konrad nearly won the stage. Second, as if that group would magically have gone 5 km/h faster with Konrad in it.

Pogacar and Roglic would like a word.

Viviani sprinting to a nice 34th place or something.

Ulissi it is, that was a fun sprint!

McNulty with a last minute attack or Ulissi with a sprint?

If they hold on a bit before signing someone new, maybe they can have Frank de Boer who was appointed coach of the Dutch team late September and is not exactly doing much good

Yet another full force showing of what on a Dutch forum is called the Patbonus, the apparent bonus every cyclist gets when moving to Pat Lefevre's team Quick-Step
