Double Dutch at the Giro today! Dumoulin won the 100th edition of the Giro d'Italia in sensational style to make history as the first Dutch winner ever of the Giro d'Italia and Van Emden gave us a double reason for celebration when he claimed his maiden grand tour stage win.
Dutch one-two in the Giro.
Epic epicness
Admin: why on earth is the Giro d'Italia not an option in the drop down?

'Huge stink' is an expression that will chase Dumoulin throughout his career.
Congratulations, Tom!
Amazed to hear that a country with such a long and illustrious cycling history had never produced a Giro winner though.
Congrats to all of you too!

Thanks lads,
Indeed, what a story would it have been if he had missed the pink shirt because of a shiiit.
I wonder though, could he not better have crapped his pants instead. I mean, its such an important moment. Just go on the bike.

Yeah, a bit odd, that. It's a pretty regular occurrence in road racing, you don't just dismount for a crap with the GC at stake. Not even sure why all the palaver in the UK over his rivals taking advantage to attack.

I am sure in time the story as to why will emerge. Tom will say something about it when being asked at some point.
