Micron! That's good Nick, will use that if you don't mind 😁

I nicked it from somebody else, think it was a bloke from the Netherlands. Smart people the Dutch.

Until you deal with them every day.

Now you say that, I used to work for a company with a Dutch subsidiary...

Old man Quintana wins the 2nd stage of Asturias round. He dedicated it to Cristian Munoz who apparently passed away earlier from an infection he had after a fall.

Sad to hear about Munoz. Dangerous game cycling.

Pelizzari won the Tour of the Alps

LBL as expected won by Pogi, but Seixas will be a competitor for sure very soon. Impressive!

Remco winning the sprint for 3rd, wonder how grumpy he is this time.

Demi Vollering doing it Pogi style with Puck sprinting to 2nd place.

Man from another Planet beats Pas Normal Hype boy who beats toys from pram man.

Best ride of the day Emiel Verstrynge in fourth, hoorah for Cyclocross!

Pluckiest Brit Ben Tulett in 13th.

Was going to avoid posting here so as not to see the Women's result as I'm watching on catch-up after coming back from a weekend away, but accidentally saw the women's result.

I would be happy to use the spoiler function in future to prevent spoiling your fun.

Don't worry about it. I always end up on a cycling website and find things out, or messages appear on my phone. I live under a rock 95% of the time, don't want to increase that time.

Two stages into the Presidential Tour of Turkiye and both have been won by Tom Crabbe of the Flanders Baloise team.

His team probably fold at the end of the season due to lack of sponsorship, but he's 20 and with his results so far this year the World Tour teams will be sniffing round him.

Ivan Sosa won today's stage of Presidential Tour of Turkiye, got away on the 10km @ 9.7% finish climb.

Klute Godon won the prologue of the Tour de Romandie. Pogi could only manage 5th. Will he be bothered?

Stanisław Aniołkowski won the bunch sprint in today's Presidential Tour of Turkiye.

Tadej Pogavar won Stage 1 in the Tour of Romandie. He attacked on the day's big climb and Sticky Martinez then wheelsucked his way to the top behind him. Nice guy that Pogi is he let Sticky take the KOM points and all the other sprint points on the way down. Florian Lipowitz got back on and wheelsucked all the way to the end because he was hoping Roglic would come back. Thankfully P:ogi won the sprint at the end.

Casper van Uden picked up PicNic PostNL's first win of the season in today's Presidential Tour of Turkiye. They managed to get their lead out train sorted for once.

Pogi won stage 2 of the Tour de Romnadie, pipping the nearest thing to a sprinter in the race - Klute Godon - into second in a bunch sprint. A bunch sprint where Nairo Quintana came 10th...

[Nickslikk2112]

Georg Zimmerman won today's Eschborn-Frankfurt. Plucky Brits Tom Pidcock and Ben Tulett second and third respectively.

A 12 man breakaway got away on the final climb and just held on to the finish. Zimmerman had been hanging at the back of the break and outsprinted the rest.

Now to catch up on Romandie. Turkiye for supper.

[Nickslikk2112]

Klute Godon got back to sprint for today's Tour de Romandie stage. Pogi could only manage 4th.

Last race for INEOS before they become Netcompany/INEOS and gain a new kit.
