The Giro d’Italia has been widely entertaining for the first five stages. We discuss Marcel Kittel’s explosive performances in the second and third stage, Jean-Christophe Péraud’s crash and exit from the Giro, and some predictions for the upcoming stages.
We talk Marianne Vos’s blog post encouraging fellow cyclists to be more safe and aware in the peloton.We share our thoughts on pointing out obstacles to other riders. Is it helpful or deterring to overall race safety?
Further conversation involves Ryanair CEO Michael O’Leary making disparaging comments in regards to cyclists and the Dublin City Council, and a shout out to our friends listening in the UK.
