Remco has COVID. Out of the Giro. That makes a balls of the race

Ah bollocks.

He might go for the Tour now though

That’d be great against last year’s big two

Some man winning a time trial and he infected with Covid

Might explain the day before as well

If he is positive with Covid, fair enough. But would it be that he needed a week of hard racing under his belt before the Tour? Just don’t trust cycling.

I’d say he was going for the Giro alright. They laid on a route with 70km of TTs for him

Geoghan Hart is just after crashing out of the Giro

Great stage yesterday. Looked like Healy had it with about 35km today but couldn’t stay away. Was pipped at the line in a sprint but couldn’t have done much more than he did

Yeah he was chasing the two lads down at the end and just doesn’t have a sprint. At least it didn’t rain.

Great to see an Irish winner of the Ras yesterday. From both the same village and club as Eddie Dunbar. They had another pro in France a few years back as well

Sam Bennett also raced with the club

That was some stage there today. Fair play to Dunbar for being in the thick of it. He must be some yoke. Roglic is done. Stick a fork in him.

Yeah Dunbar is a serious operator
Was nearly too dominant in Ireland as a young lad and only really learning to race ride in last few years

The team change has been great for him. He’d never have got a look in with Ineos for the grand tours. Was unlucky in the last few years with injuries and Covid issues.

Watched it back there. Yeah Roglic doesn’t look great. Mountain time trial to come. Thomas might have an edge on Almeida but Almeida is twelve years younger and is no mug. Be great for Dunbar to make top five, bit to do yet though. Healy in the mountains jersey.

Dunbar edged up to fourth. Roglic finished with Thomas and moved up to second. Almeida lost 20 odd seconds. Harder day tomorrow.

Fair play to Dunbar. How about the KOTM?
