Summary

Another cold and wet day at the Giro d'Italia saw a win for one of our audio diarists, Gino Mader, only 24 hours after losing his team leader, Mikel Landa, who crashed out on Wednesday.

In the latest episode Richard and Daniel discuss the stage and the new man in pink, Attila Valter, who we hear from. There's another audio diary from James Knox, Gianni Savio is back discussing tactics and Caleb Ewan confesses his ignorance of Italian geography.

On the day he lost the pink jersey, we also hear from Alessandro De Marchi's teammate and roommate, Alex Dowsett, and talk about the imminent return of Tom Dumoulin with George Bennett and Addy Engels.
