Eugene Oppelt Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 Three Tinkoff riders trying to catch the back of the peloton. One of them is Majka.Yipmechanical problem for Majka and this is really a bad time for him to have such a problem.
Eugene Oppelt Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 Bobridge and Timmer exchanging notes on that crash. There's no rush for them to get back on, they just want to make it home inside the time limit.
Eugene Oppelt Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 It's getting to squeaky bum time in this stage, as Alex Ferguson would say. Teams are now fighting for space at the from of the bunch as Majka fights his way onto the back.
Eugene Oppelt Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 Majka is back in the bunch and now his team are helping him get near the front. With some narrow roads to contend with the GC riders won't want to be too far back in case of a crash.

Eugene Oppelt Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 Benevento has been decorated for the occasion with streamers all over the place. There are plenty of spectators our lining the street too.
