2016 Giro d'Italia stage 16: Bressanone - Andalo (132 km)

[Pantani Attacks]

Majka puts Valverde to shame

 

[Pantani_lives]

Can Zakarin keep a straight line in the sprint to avoid disqualification?

 

[Praying Mantis]

Nibali looks like he's riding in his dress shoes.
Black shoes uaahh, nonono.

This is superb stuff from Zak, Valverde and Kruijswijk. Really intelligent riding.

Majka drops

Re:

Wow didn't expect Zakarin to get this much time on Nibali (if GPS is correct, lol). Could be 3rd today already

Chaves isn't that far away.

 

[GuyIncognito]

Climb's over. So it's looking like Valverde will be the 64th person to win stages of all 3 GTs

 

[Climbing]

I think Nibali completely gave up as well.
Should be good for the Olympics!

Where's Majka?

 

[Krokro]

Re: Re:

I hope Majka cracks later this week.

He won't. He has a chance to sneak onto the podium I fear.

That could be possible. No panache at all. Quite a meeh way of riding this until now !

Re:

And the crowd goes wild!!!!

 

[SafeBet]

Jungels is unbelievable though. Maybe he can really target a GT in the future.

 

[Volderke]

Valverde's stage to lose.

Behind Ulissi.

 

[damian13ster]

What did you expect? It was obvious he will drop. That's why he wasn't taking pulls.

 

[Miburo]

This hate on Majka is the same as the hate of the nba fans on Draymond Green.

Loving it

 

[SoigneurNL]

Attack Steven! Show them all who's boss

 

[ice&fire]

Is the finish wide enough to fit Zaka's elbows and Kruijkswijk shoulders?

 

[Praying Mantis]

Come on Stork, elbow it!

Re: Re:

This final week is going to be amazing

It's just going to be Kruijswijk riding off into the sunset and a rotating cast of also rans trying to hold his wheels

How do you know this if it hasn't happened yet

If it does I'll mail you a cycling themed gift!

He's barely had a difficult 10 meters let alone a difficult day. He covers everyone's attacks with ease and everyone is hoping to hold his wheel.

I'd love to see exciting racing but it will be for the podium spots, not for the overall win.

Bala, my Bala Thank You

 

[Climbing]

Nice ride Valverde!

 

[DenisMenchov]

What did Zak do here??!

 

[DFA123]

Harsh on Zakarin to lose some time there, but credit to him for riding all the way to the line and not playing games and missing the bigger picture. Really gutsy rider.
