Biniam Girmay is that guy and he's only 22. Already highly regarded in the cycling world became the first Black African to win a cycling classic earlier on in the season. Went h2h with MVDP in the Giro a couple of times and beat him for a stage in a sprint. He also famous for almost losing his eye from a champagne cork when he popped the bottle to celebratehis Giro stage win.

Eritrea is the home of African cycling.

Girmay again!

Just got to make to Nice and the Green Jersey is his. Big advantage to 2nd place.

Nice to see Girmay's success.

Looks the favorite to the green now. May he go from strength to strength.

Whoever performs well at one of the 3 important u23 races which are Baby Giro Tour de l'Avenir and the u23 World's. Usually become the riders who are going to be good for the next decade. Bini came 2nd in the 2021 U23 World's so he natural was on the radar after that.

It doesn't look like Vingegaard has it this year.

He’s got no team this year.

[Liu Kang]

Today is full of white roads and the peloton is already split everywhere on the second one. Roglic got caught smh.

Still a long way to go in this Stage and it feels like a lot of drama.

Evenopoel attacked and tried a 77km TT. And Vingo and Pogi chasing. Ludicrousness.

Pidcock Healy and the other Tete de la Course riders when they see a Pogi and Remco.

Vingegaard still in the hunt and not changing bikes is

I don't think he has last year's form but he's battling.
You love to see it.

Roglic...

Pogacar is the goddamn Ivan Drago of this tour.

Whatever they’re paying van aert should be doubled. Man is a legendary teammate.

Those Cyclo-cross skills come in handy on this type of terrain.

As he's a Red Bull athlete like Pidcock and a few others. With RB now sponsor of Bora WvA names keeps on being linked with them (as Pidcock) and they will pay the money. As would UAE to get him.
