True, he's a fighter, will not quit unless left with no other choice.

Don't think he is going to the TDF. At the start of the Giro he was asked and he said that they hadn't decided yet. ????‍♀️

If you follow him on Instagram you'll see he still doesn't.

I'm not sure which goals he has set for this year so not sure if Olympics and WC is featuring.. Then add the contract saga, from everything we've seen it would appear as if he isn't staying with Bora...that all may determine if he rides the TDF or not. ????

Marquee sprinters can do whatever they want, subject to the rules and their team orders. When they win, even more so.

Watching this live I thought he did not really hit his head but made a front flip as in the first image... The second image shows why he has concussion. And then the bike in 2! Yikes!

I've raced and come off motorcycles. Take my word for it this is a serious off.

UCI adapted rule, Giro only: 

Riders will be allowed to chuck bidons towards fans in the final 50km, provide it doesn't put anyone at risk, etc.

????????????

Interesting yet true tweet I read earlier. 

 

What's everyone else take on this the tweet below??

 

"Eddy Merckx thinks Caleb Ewan abandoning the Giro d’Italia is a “total lack of professionalism and respect for cycling.” From the man who got thrown out of the Giro d’Italia while leading the GC for testing positive for a banned substance? Positive three times in his career? Ok."

Always interesting to see how Eddie is revered when he was caught doping a few times I think - also introduced Lance to the dodgy doctor
