What's so surprising. Evans is no longer a GT winner and everyone knows it and they also need an alternative to TJVG.

funny, take nibali out of the equasion and evans was pretty close to winning a gt just a couple of weeks ago,

That just puts in context how strong Nibali's performance was.

If the full course was ridden Betancur would have overtaken him.

funny, Evans found himself up in the gc 1/3 of the way through the gc battle at the giro, then they cancelled all the mountains and he ended up with that position


Fixed it for you ;)

Evans should never again attempt back-to-back GT's.

Nobody should, at least not for GC. Giro-Tour double is impossible in contemporary cycling. That's why I never believed the rumors about Nibbles doing the Tour. He's way too smart to make such a mistake.


Anyway, Cunego dropped from 18 riders in the break??? How bad has he become?

It was a stupid decision by BMC expecting him to back up in the Tour when he was already weakening in the third week of the Giro. Scarponi dodged the Tour because he was too fatigued and Evans said he wanted to sleep for a month or so. Dumb.
