The Dumoulin group will kick themselves for not working together earlier...that really played nicely into the hands of Yates..

Ah yes don’t you just love road racing

 

Spite yourself just because you don’t want a competitor to benefit

Last time I watched a ride like this the name Floyd Landis was on the commentators lips.

Funny I said the same thing to the wife

Was there a will with the other GC contenders to work with Tom considering they all dread his anticipated forthcoming TT time advantage?

Nope...Pinot tried a few times to up the tempo and get them to come along but no-one would...now they are all on the back foot..Lopez and that other youngster playing each other for the white jersey, race within a race..????‍♀️

What a stunning day's racing. Forced to tape the final 2 hours because of other commitments but glad I did; will probably watch today's stage over and over. Yates a deserved winner today. His gutsy performances this Giro reminds me of a hungry Contador and Pantani.

What did Yates have for breakfast this morning??

 

Not sure what he had for breakfast but he had Tom Dumoulin for late lunch.

Appears to be miles ahead of the rest. Usually GC riders have bad days where they limit losing time. Yates appears to only have good days, amazing.

I missed the stage yesterday.  Caught the tail end as Sky crossed the line.

Great weekend indeed! 

Yates is in a class of it's own it seems.

 

Here's pics to relive Saturday & Sunday:
