Giro d'Italia: Rafal Majka Tinkoff-Saxo's GC hope after stage 6 crash

On the longest day of the 2014 Giro d'Italia, which had been lengthened by a further 10km due to landslides, the peloton was just 3km from  starting the climb to Montecassino when disaster struck. Eight riders at the front of the main bunch, including maglia rosa Michael Matthews (Orica-GreenEdge), made it through unscathed while in their wake, were riders strewn across the wet road.
