The numbers are insane, Ganna was over 800W aero when they flicked across to him at one point.

Top Ganna! He was pushing out some big numbers.

No big gains or losses in GC

Is Quest opening with ‘Get Back’ by Ludacris (think Tom Cruise in Tropic Thunder).

Hip hop meets Giro. Mix it up.

Ganna was imperious today.
To put 9.98s into second place over that course is crazy talk.

Well. I’ve started where I left off last year on the fantasy Giro. Not sure how RobH managed to score absolutely nothing, but even with that, he’s still not given me much of a headstart… :joy:

I had Cavagna in my team and swapped him this morning at the last min for Ganna! :heart_eyes:

That guy just looks silky smooth on a TT bike eh. He’s so far above his handlebars, yet handles the bike like a dream. Top riding.

Gannas power is absolutely ridiculous.

590 watts average

Bastards. The lot of ya.

@jorgan picked well for the opening stage.

Yeah it’s been quite interesting flicking through people’s teams.

My completely irrational dislike of Evenepoel is going to cost me.
I blame it on my British dislike of a wunderkid. I prefer a bit of talent & hard graft with an unexpected lucky break :slight_smile:

Gronewegen sat up and lost 3rd 🙆

Still, second day in pole position :+1:

I’m surprised how many points I scored :scream:

Got to wonder if his head is fully in it after the last year.

Cycling podcast suggesting he would be a good fit for Quickstep if Bennet is leaving :astonished:

Where would Bennett be going to? Can’t be many/any better trains than QS at the mo?
