Grassmarket 2,745 Posted October 1, 2021 #111 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Turning the clock back a fair few years in Sicilia - Vincenzo Nibali attacks a few km from the top of the last big climb, Movistar & Alejandro Valverde can’t react, & Nibali beats Valverde to both stage & his home Tour. Nibali’s first win since the 2019 TdF, so a very emotional day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grassmarket 2,745 Posted October 2, 2021 #114 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Very rainy, windy & muddy on the old Napoleonic pavés today. Some of them could fall into the maize fields & never be seen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grassmarket 2,745 Posted October 2, 2021 #115 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Already looking like we have a winner with Lizzie Deignan two minutes up with 45k to go. Just a smart move to be out in front, the second group are skidding & falling all over the place. Some very fine heaps of manure on display here: local cows have every reason to be proud.

heywoodu 13,540 Posted October 2, 2021 #118 Share Posted October 2, 2021 And another big crash on a straight. Van Dijk, Majerus, Roy going down hard right when Vos has opened the (too late) counterattack, with only Longo Borghini in her wheel.

heywoodu 13,540 Posted October 2, 2021 #120 Share Posted October 2, 2021 Vos entering the wet Carrefour de l'Arbre full speed, as if it's entirely dry. Magician on the bike (which is not to say it can't still go wrong).
