It was really poetic that Girmay won a stage in Italy. It was agonizing to see him crash out of the Giro after struggling so much to get back on his bike following his first crash. Italy wasn't finished with him yet!

Bini reminds me of Sagan's smart sprint -surfing. He used his team's lead out as almost a decoy

Still frame breakdowns? No thanks. Until you see the genius of the Horner family. Absolutely nothing is lost by not having moving pictures. And yes, the arrow game is STRONG!

AMAZING FACT ABOUT ERITREAN CYCLING. 105,000 tickets was sold out for the final stage of 1997 Tour of Eritrea. The Eritrean National Championship always has around 5500 spectators at the finish line. Cycling is National Sport of Eritrea.🇪🇷

I remember the 1997 tour Eritrea, it was a very big event. Bini got the opportunity at early age, I believe there was/is a lot of Binis in Eritrea. Climbers like Desalegn Negash and Dawit Mehari, sprinters like Yonas Zecarias and Senay Tsegay.

The best bit at the start was Abrahamsen rolling off the front for a few km then literally stopping to wait for the bunch when he needed to take a "nature break".

Thanks, Chris.! Our Bini is doing it in the old school style. What do you say about it ?

Also, while Carapaz and EF did work to stay at the front before the crash, Tadej literally tried to give the yellow to Remco yesterday. Neither he nor Jonas were interested in having to do extra protocol by wearing the jersey.

This is huge for Bini as he also has Giro stage. Tadej was probably glad Billy Carapaz took the jersey so he can deal with all the interviews and ceremonies. Today's stage 4 will be fire. Great job breaking down the stage!

I loved the bike leaning sprint wobbles matching so well. If they had been out of phase Bini wouldn’t have had enough room to get through. Good to see the yellow jersey pass also. Love your live action insights!

This year has seen a great opening I think. Three unexpected stage winners with emotional finishes. Tomorrow will be interesting watching the GC guys lock horns in the mountains.

Wow, quick turn-around on this episode. Thank you.

So many 'what-ifs' here. The crash seems to have disrupted some of the sprint teams. Then MVDP taken out with a technical. Somehow it opened up for Girmay, who only had one path to the line. He grabbed his opportunity and went for it.

Great manic summary of the final sprint. Chris is always entertaining, even if the stage isn't. No comments about Cav?

never give up bravo biniam top sprint ! team horner is not a wind instrument team ! njoylife

Ooh, almost got there with a cleanup on aisle / stage 3 pun for the Intermarche squad 😎.

I've always felt that in sprint finishes, it's the sprinter's job to be there or there-abouts on the wheels of their leadout riders. This frequent looking back and subsequent sudden pulling up/out, can be dangerous. A bazillion years ago in a smaller pro/am road race in New Jersey I was a Cat 2 with leadout duties on my team. Coming into the finish I was on the front and I had the field strung out. I give a quick glance and see the Navigators pro team on my wheel. I had to trust that "my guy" was close enough, and so I kept on the gas if for no other reason than to keep things safer for the field there at the front.

From the hip injury just 8 weeks ago in Giro..to a stunning victory in Tour 🇪🇷🇪🇷🇪🇷

Great finish today!! Super stoked that Girmay finally got a stage !! Hope he gets many more. Super happy that Carapaz wearing Yellow, probably not for long. But now maybe J Vaughters can stop complaining about other teams being greedy about winning so much. I know it's only stage 3. But does it seem like everyone is really waiting for the TT to put the official hurt on???

What do you think of the 3 km rule being moved forward to 5 km yesterday, Chris? To me it looked like it worked

I think Mads "felt" Gaviria coming up his left and as he moved the bike to the left Girmay got that nice opening for the win! Perhaps if mads stays close to the barriers Gaviria wins tho

Curious that MVDP couldn't catch the peloton after his bike change. I assume the DS told him to forget it because Jasper was held up from that crash, so there was no point wasting energy if Jasper didn't need a lead out. I'm not clear on the timeline of how all of this unfolded.

The peloton rides at 65 km/h at that point, no rider on his own can close that gap of 45 seconds anymore.... Since the rider will need to ride at 70 km/h for several km's... And nobody can do that....
