This week on the GCN Show we're talking about that incident between Andrey Grivko and Marcel Kittel at the Dubai Tour. When you think of the usual build of pro cyclists, it's probably obvious that they're not going to be all that good at fighting as a group. Let alone at 50kph.

That said, plenty of pro cyclists have tried to fight over the years, and usually looked pretty stupid for doing so, and not just because it's a dumb thing to do in the first place.

Got something to add to this discussion? Let us know down in the comments.

Also, Canyon haven't just stated a launch date for their bikes in the USA, they've also launched what is reported to be the world's lightest production bike. Very cool stuff.
