'Dale Posted May 18, 2014 Share Michael Matthews has been dropped by the peloton. He took a heavy fall earlier on in the race, in a multi-rider pile-up that split the peloton. He's mising quite a lot of his shorts and skin on his right leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted May 18, 2014 Share The peloton have decided to up the pace finally, and have brought the gap down to 5:47. However, it's looking ever more likely that the winner will come from the escape group today. No team sees too interested in catching them.

'Dale Posted May 18, 2014 Share  Evans is currently second man on the road. BMC are really pushing it on this descent, making the most of Evans' skills on the descent. The peloton is strung out behind them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted May 18, 2014 Share The escapees are still all together as they ride up the second climb of the day. However, that's unlikely to last once we hit the final climb in around 5 kilomtres time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
