By @EchelonsHub A day for the breakaway to succeed, and with no surprise a large amount of riders looked to go up the road early on. After over an hour of racing a group of over 20 riders went up the road with some big names involved, and from those 3 went clear in the penultimate…

By @EchelonsHub The wind didn’t end up being felt in the peloton, and that led to a very calm day in the peloton as the riders enjoyed a climb-less day in the Giro. Everything was to play for in the final sprint, where a surprise emerged as the right strategy saw Alberto Dainese storm to the…

By @EchelonsHub A chaotic stage at the Giro d’Italia, where as expected the breakaway was easily controlled because of the weather conditions, however the late attacks were very complicated.

Once again, several leadouts struggling to get into position with the tremendously dangerous final kilometer. A photofinish sprint decided the outcome of the day, as Arnaud…

By @EchelonsHub A tricky sprint stage, it was exactly what we found in today’s stage of the Giro as the early climb in the stage was used to create damage, as Alpecin, Intermarché and Israel forced and mantained a high pace that collectively managed to eliminate Caleb Ewan and Mark Cavendish from contention from the stage…
