How ****ing fast is Ganna? 58.8km/hr average 😳😳😳😳😳😳
No ducks, is disappoint 😔
Superman out already
Shame about Lopez. Already sizeable gaps on GC ....
And yes, Ganna is a speed monster! if he had a real concerted push at the hour record on the track it could be a big jump on campenaerts time.
Van der poel ride in Binkbank tour 😳😳😳😳😳 Rode away from the peleton with 50km to go and then held them off on final climb...
Skipped the Giro to watch Leige, oh dear Allaphillipe what did you do!!
Van der Poel was right in the mix in a hilly classic the day after a 50km solo break to win Binkbank!!
Where are the Giro daily highlights being shown? I'd assumed it would be ITV4 but cant see it!
They are on Quest at 7pm. We have it but I am not sure who has it or if it is Sky only or a freeview channel!
non-spoiler thread with fantasu league here - https://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/stw-giro-ditalia-2020-thread-incl-fantasy-league
Quest is Freeview channel 12, or 114 in HD
G has had an off.
That's got that out of the way then.

s4c but Welsh commentary only with no subtitles that I can find. Use their app for half hour catch up highlights.
not a mask in sight on the side of the road!
Simon is breaking the Wiggins don't unzip your jersey rule already!
G didn't look happy bit of a grimace!
g off the back with 27k to go
Looks like G is out
Oh... that's... well... disappointing !!!!
back in the peleton but not looking good

looking at his clothing it does look like he's been down again!

No there's the breakaway, 3 mins back to the peloton and then another 30" back to GT. Gap getting bigger all the time.
And now they've just sacrificed Ganna's pink jersey to look after him.
Nibbles & trek are going to stick it to G here
Along with Rohan Dennis too who's helping. Thomas pulling not happy faces in his little group. I can see him bailing after today, not sure what he's hurt, but it's not looking happy.
G 1.05 back now, it's going to be 10 mins+ @ the top at this rate, and now Bora up the pace!
here have a coke 😀
And now Yates goes pop...
Nibali for the title ?
Simon Yates in trouble as well.
Yates popped ?
rumours of a broken rib.
(for Thomas that is, not Yates)
G has lost 11 mins. Reckon he's out now, he looked wrecked.
Rapha and EF Education First have played a blinder with their marketing and special one-off kit!
My prediction on the other thread of a conservative stage with a wee dash to the line was a bit wrong.
Real shame about Thomas and Yates. They're both capable of really exciting racing so it sucks if they're out of contention.

Oh dear that didn't age well.
G hit a bottle by the looks of it.

man has no luck
Click through onto that Twitter thread and there is a vid from another angle, there's 3 bottles rolling around. WTF are bottles doing rolling around in the middle of the road in the middle of the peloton on a fast downhill section?! Absolutely nothing G could've done there and looked a hefty fall.
That’s a horrible fall. Went down like a bag of wet sand.
What tit chucks his bottle there? Or is this some litter from the promotional caravan?
There is a rough section of cobbles(?) just where the bottles are appearing on the road.
The other video shows bidons. First black and white (or silver) then the red coloured ones. Close up of one after the crash looks like Bahrain McLaren colours. So appear to have jumped out of the cages and rolled down the hill.
By Eck, how bloody unlucky.
Consensus is the bottles bounced out, bump in road just before the zebra crossing. You can see it as the motorbikes and cars cross it. Momentum would have thrown the bottles forward.

@oikeith, it's on Quest/Quest HD at 19:00.
You would have thought they could design bottles and cages that kept the 2 items together when on the bike
