He is constantly popping up and breaking (his own) climbing records around Como, obviously in terrific shape but who knows how that'll relate to the level these days
This isn't Aussie Nationals without radios - Plapp clearly had a green light from Schmid and the team as he already helped Schmid come back once when Yates first goes. I don't have a big problem with letting him go for the stage win really
Curious to see how Schmid handles Green Mountain, he's in incredible shape. The likes of Yates etc. losing time suggests things will open up early on Wednesday
