Unfortunately the Giro has become the grand tour of stage alterations and the main problem is the timing of the race and its position on the calendar. The other two races rarely have the same issues and the weather of the past week has been historic in Italy so it's not easy at all for the organizers but it's up to the riders and team to make the race in whatever form. The stage yesterday was probably the worst short stage I have ever watched from the GC point of view. Without the action in the break it would have been lights out for me and I was already semi comatose...............the race badly needs a dramatic final week.
Then stop reading? I mean that's your logic isn't it
Not comparable. Still a lot of good content and posts in here, doesn't seem to me the complainers can find anything good to say about the giro.
Not taking it personally, cause I understand your point. To me seeing some posters repeat the same angry sentiments over and over, without any reflections and perspective, just gets tedious. It's the equivalent of the Einstein Insanity.
See it this way: Everyone has prepared meticulously for powerposting about remco vs roglic, those Watts need to ne layed on the Keyboards now!
Change the route to yesterday’s original stage.
While a funny post, there is also more than a grain of truth here. I imagine many/most were coming into this primed for the epic Remco/Rog/Ineos showdown, with all the expectations/hopes/baggage that entails; to instead be served what is arguably the worst first two weeks of any GC in recent memory, with no sign of relief in sight, is just pushing some over the edge. First world problems, yes, but there's the passion for you.
Van der Poel getting dropped from breakaways doing 5.3 W/kg uphill is so entertaining tho
This forum has seen Leipheimer winning Tour de Suisse. And it went literally down.
