Am I a terrible person for thinking you meant the riders would just... run over all the brides?
No, normal. Or at least forum normal.

I don't think there's much of a chance for a sprint - if any. I think it'll be ridden like a classics; a break goes early and when we hit the circuit, at some point it's gonna be attacks galore with Van der Poel as the main protagonist. Girmay is the main challenger to Van der Poel, but I don't really see Demare, Nizzolo, Ballerini etc. challenge unless they're on an amazing day and join the attacks. Ewan and Gaviria has got no chance here imo. I hope I'm right because that would mean a much more entertaining day of cycling
Oh yeah? I haven't really noticed that, but you might be right then.I agree about most except the part about Gaviria. He has been climbing very well so far.
This is not stage 9, so Porte will be fine.Let's hope not.

I only noticed it after I had typed the sentence. Then I considered a line break, but I'm not a @TourOfSardinia imitator.What a rhymesmith you are
If true that is completely unnecessary.

Huh? Sounds too good to be true.On the circuit between Mount Procida and Lake Lucrino there's that small climb on the profile that's not mentioned and which apparently is 1km at 15%. Could be interesting.
Vi ricordate di Illiano? E' lui la nostra guida alla tappa di Napoli che sta per cominciare
Raffaele Illiano, pro' alla corte di Savio, è uno dei profeti del ciclismo campano. E ci svela le insidie della tappa di Napoli, forse dura per i velocistibici.pro
Probably a tunnelIt is. I doubt it goes beyond 6 %. The altitude data when mapping it is very sensitive and noisy, but when I look at the road through streetview, it's a steady and not very steep climb.
