I had some mince that need using and was going to make a chilli but I've just made a Bolognese sauce in honour of the first Giro stage instead.

Mebbe, but I harboured dark, shameful doubts about Yates TT ability.
I'm rooting for him!
I know what you mean,but.i reckon Dumoulin is keeping his powder dry so to speak Hell be strong in the third week.The other question is can Roglic keep it up ?
Anyways I'm going with Tao !

I've just noted that Giulio Ciccone is the first KOM jersey holder, so quicker up the climb than Roglič and Yates, yet 1min28sec down on GC! I'm assuming that he was riding his standard road bike throughout and therefore had better momentum going into the climb, on a bike that was set up for this and was specifically targeting the KOM.
