I love the small breakaway finishes like the one in yesterday's Giro stage. The cat and mouse in the final kilometers is great to watch. Rotten luck for Millar, another mechanical failure ruined his, what looked like good, chances of a stage victory.
This is a great slo-mo replay of the moment and Millar's frustrated tantrum, reminds me of Riis in the Tour de France time trial. That's a whole lot of nice kit (chain excepted) to be chucking about.
So good to see Mark Cavendish win a stage today. He really is proving himself to be one of the very best sprinters in the peloton at the moment. The helicopter view showed how fast he was at the finish line and Zabel and McEwen were way off. Check out the video highlights at Eurosport here
Having read about Ricardo Riccò, his attitude and his relationship with other riders in the cycling magazines and online I hadn't particularly warmed to him. However, anyone who can talk about winning a stage and then go and deliver on the promise deserves recognition. I'll be watching out for him during the rest of the race.
