LLS helping Gaviria now

I mean Armirail is not a threat but the way this Giro has gone he could very well end up top 10 once we roll into Rome.

Mayrhoffer and Gee looking strong

Yes I was thinking that, 2 really big mountain stages left where he would just have to hang on for dear life and try and limit and should be fine on the tt, could theoretically top 10 as his climbing isn't bad.

It would be nice for such an unselfish rider to have his moment.

 

[Red Rick]

Breakaway riders pulling full gas with much better sprinters in their group never ceases to amaze me.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Gee will be at a big GC team soon with recovery like this

Lose a few KGs and he will fly in the mountains as well

Whats the alternative?

Whats the alternative?

Try to win, instead of guaranteeing you don't

If Skuijns stops pulling he won't even be top 3. Better try to stay clear and try something in the end. Last km is slightly uphill so its not even completely impossible to beat them.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Skujins looked bad in the sprint on Thursday, he should start pulling just a little bit weaker.

 

[BR2]

Come on, this Giro owes us one. Skuijns for the win, Bruno in pink at the end of the day please.

 

[noob]

nah I took it more as they were asking hm about what some 80s/90s riders who had claimed modern riders were soft for not riding in the conditions where they shortened the stage, and he replied well they did lots of things in the 80/90s we dont and are proud not to do anymore, so he's just basically telling those 80s/90s riders to get back in the sea about raising such daft points because riders in the 80s/90s actually dont have the moral high ground in cycling.

And what you just said was exactly what I said.
There's no logic for him to just be like "you were all dopers so you have no say". That's not an argument, it's just a reactive comment to shift back blame.

But if he took a moment to ponder what he just said the only logical conclusion would be that a GT has to be shortened to avoid having to dope.
Not that he has any clue that it's what he's saying. But [journalist hat on] good journalist should've picked up on it lol.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

After the least cooperative breakaway ever on Thursday, this one is the polar opposite.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Ineos won't chase for the Pink Jersey today - according to Giada on the moto

 

[Samamba]

Better question is what Rex is doing lmao.

 

[Strawberry_Jams]

Jumbo to ride at the end to keep thomas in pink?

 

[glassmoon]

Denz stupid?
edit: not that close in the end.

 

[Didinho]

What a lot of tactical errors in the last km's.

 

[Samamba]

Wtf is Denz doing

 

[KZD]

lol I think we had an Alaphilippe moment here. If Gee wins, its super deserved.

 

[KOM]

Lets hope its Gee no one deserves it more than him

 

[Tim Cahill]

Deviated to cut off Gee, celebrated then might've lost anyway. Classic scenes.

Edit: look like he has it tbf

 

[Lequack]

Has Denz Aliphillipe'd himself?

 

[ppanther92]

Denz surely must have lost this

 

[Bolder]

Win or lose that was a bonehead move by Denz
