Peleton being let go and not stopped is a bit harsh.

Maybe pay-back for the treatment they got in the queen stage of Romandie. Not a great overlap of riders but still.

 

[tobydawq]

That's the rule unfortunately. They only have to stop if they catch the break.

Really?

Really?

yeah, the jury basically only needs to take action if groups are split or come together, due to the level crossing

 

[MrTea1976]

I'm enjoying the lack of Kirby.

 

[Laplaz]

Really?

Apparently...

here comes Bora. 15k to drop the sprinters

 

[glassmoon]

Dylan dropped

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Groenewegen is the first casualty.

 

[Panda Claws]

Dylan dropped

That's just a tactical retreat.

 

[jarvo]

I'm enjoying the lack of Kirby.

Yeah the Hatch, LLoyd, Smith, Kelly, Blyth rotation is a much better listen

 

[Red Rick]

That's just a tactical retreat.

It's reverse attacking.

 

[SafeBet]

Merlier gone too.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Imaging if this climd actually had an 8% avg. gradient, like the graphics claimed.

 

[Lequack]

Great racing by Bora and Sagan.

 

[postmanhat]

Gaviria needs to join Ineos as a dom

 

[Escarabajo]

Nizzolo at the back!

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Nizzolo and Viviani not... quite... gone

 

[limak_]

Sagan looking surprisingly relaxed

 

[tobydawq]

That was a quite fun climb in its own way.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

Bora are great fun when they are riding to shell sprinters

 

[Lo squalo di messina]

Nibs looking good.

 

[tobydawq]

Holm keeps saying that Sagan is cooked, done and can't climb. Just fire him* already.

*Holm, that is.

 

[SafeBet]

Aleotti is doing some great work this Giro.

 

[SafeBet]

Now ISN helping Bora for Cimolai. Won't be easy to come back for those who were dropped.

 

[Zinoviev Letter]

There‘s an opportunity for a strong attacker despite the parcours. Not clear who will control it now that most sprinters are gone and so are the Bora domestiques.
