And well done to Pippo Ganna for retaining the lead in Tirreno Adriatico.

Olav Kooij snuck his way to victory in Tirreno Adriatico today. Nobody on commentary noticed he was there until the last minute. MvdP coming in third.

Never a dull moment today.

Sneaky Martinez, cleverly done, with Champoussin taking place 2.

Vingegaard 30 secs out,after a nasty crash, he looked terrible. Looks like he fell flat on his face.

Good to see INEOS doing more attacking this year too. Maybe it'll work for Tobias Foss one day.

Vingegaard dropped out of Paris - Nice after his fall yesterday

[Nickslikk2112]

Not surprised about Vingegaard quitting. Sounded to me as if he could be concussed as well as a bad wrist.

Breakaway win for Dversnes of UnoX in Tirreno Adriatico today. Looks like a mechanical will cost Ganna the lead. Last 3k but not a crash or puncture.

They did  give Ganna the same time, he stays in Blue.

Paris-Nice "The Race to the Sun" LOL!

Good day for Visma LaB and INEOS

[Nickslikk2112]

Juan Ayuso wins Tirreno-Adriatico - nice trophy dude - and Ganna picked up bonus seconds to get to second on the podium.

Matteo Jorgenson wins Paris-Nice again. Magnus Sheffield picking up the stage win for INEOS.

Le Tour starting in Grand Bretagne in 2027. Really, that was the announcement they made.

Well, that has some of you sorted for a long weekend then!

Bloody Edinburgh's expensive enough at the best of times 

First one day win for Isaac del Toro in Milano-Torino today, plucky Brit Ben Tulett in second.

Nils Eekhoff won Nokere Koerse, aided by Jasper the Disaster crashing out, if INEOS can nobble MvdP it'll really improve Ganna's chances with Pogi getting banged up at Strada Bianche.

And today 19 year old Matthew Brennan won the Grand Prix de Denain - Porte du Hainaut. The boy done well in soccer parlance. Get him in Paris Roubaix!

[Nickslikk2112]

Well done MvdP was hoping Pippo could pip him, but that was an entertaining last 30km

Pogi can be beaten but it seems only by the Grand matadors.

Exceptional race by MvdP.

Exceptional race by MvdP.

Has to be the right Monument.

Both MvdP and Pogi have won Ronde van Vlaanderen

MvdP has wins in Milan-San Remo and Paris-Roubaix

Pogi has wins in Liège-Bastogne-Liège and Il Lombardia.

Lambardy will never be for MvdP unless he looses a lot of weight. LBL might be possible, on the right day.
