Bloody hell, Nibali rolls back the years and wins the last stage of his home race and snatches victory in the GC from the other old git, Valverde.

And Stephen Williams outclimbs Simon Yates to win the 5th stage of the Cro Tour. Great result for him and hopefully a new contract for him at Bahrain Vic. Could hold the GC too tomorrow

Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert's Danny van Poppel wins Binche-Chimay-Binche sponsored by Wanty. The rider delighted @Dogtrousers by sprinting clear on the uphill-ish penultimate section of rough cobbles, then maintained the gap over the failing tarmac and the final cobbled sprint. He did not dare raise his hands to celebrate!

Spare a thought for the Sport Vlaanderen rider who tried to cut a right-turn across a cycleway into a side road and caught the 45° "traversable" kerb instead of a flat kerb while leaned over, ending up face down on the floor while ISN's Alexis Renard rode into him.

It was a great race and effort by Adam Yates. Roglic always seems to have something left!

Not a rider thats easy to warm to. Him, WvA and Eddy have been scrapping in the belgian media this week.

 

[Adam4868]

Gutted I'm not going to Lombardy....my favourite one day race.But needs must and my partner hasn't got her passport back from dvla ! Roglic looks like he will be up there in the mix though.
No odds yet ? @rich p
