For The Love Of Cycling

Decathlon controlled the pace of the bunch right up until the final climb that decided everything. A valiant effort from the break, with Giulio Ciccone lasting the longest, but behind him, Visma and Decathlon smelled blood in the fight for GC. Pellizzari and others were dropped as the gradients bit. And at the top of the mountain, the two strongest men battled it out. But the man in pink? He's not...

After a horrid start to this Giro, UAE reminded the peloton they're still here. A day of tried and failed attacks, and savage gradients between on the way into Fermo, and in the end, one man went alone to take the stage. A valiant effort from Leknessund fell short, which meant Jhonatan Narvaez was able to take his second win of this Giro. Behind them, the GC battle raged on, with the man in pink h...

It's over, it's not over, it's over again, it's not over again! A soaking wet day in Italy made every kilometre a fight. Giulio Ciccone gave everything in a brave solo effort to save his maglia rosa, but that wasn't what Lidl-Trek had in mind. Then came the two-man fight for the stage. Igor Arrieta and Afonso Eulálio went head-to-head, both hitting the deck, one went the wrong way, looked done, an...

For the first time, the peloton raced on Italian soil — and Movistar made sure it hurt. A blistering pace on the first proper climb of this Giro shredded the bunch, with riders getting dropped left and right, including the maglia rosa.   But the biggest story of the day?
