It's happened. Strava KOMs are officially more important than racing.

Strava KOMs are more important to those that are not winning the race.
An interesting sub-topic is should referees use other data gathered at a later date to determine cheating. And if yes, how late?
My answers would be yes, until the next event held under the same rules.
The time the next race starts riders placing from prior events play into the overall strategy and point collection and ranking. A rider that had a prior race DQ'd may be allowed in a break where they would not be otherwise. This unraveling of results going back multiple events can not be done fairly.

At this point, Cancellara standing on the side of the road for 2 minutes seems like a fair handicap for all the other favorites.

"data from the FDJ rider's Strava file before it was suddenly deleted"
He should have deleted the file more slowly?

Cracking race. Too bad it's 32 and snowed last night and I still don't want to go outside.

Kittel dropped everyone in that sprint, holy ****. It was like he had an 11 and they were all stuck on 13's..
Btw if anyone is wondering how to watch the Giro, Sling tv has it (on BeIN sports), and they have a free trial thingy. Loving it!
