Hope they will hit them lazy ass riders hard lol

How would that make your view better?

 

[Lequack]

If I was Remco I would be smiling and thinking about all the minutes I will put into everyone in the ITT.

Rogla far down

 

[red_flanders]

Are people really expecting attacks on a 3% slope into a headwind?

 

[Andre]

Jumbo Visma quite far behind in the bunch...

they are nervous

Its beginning to look like the break have this today.

I believe this is what we call humor, in which the weather brings retribution to the riders for not entertaining us sitting on the couch sufficiently.

The lol indicates this is perhaps not to be taken too seriously

Leknessund doesn't look so good, for someone who claims he can stay in pink after today.

Can't believe the stage is playing out exactly like everyone expected!!!

Well, I expected a better breakaway, but that‘s not really relevant here.

 

[Sciatic]

Looks like a nice road/scene for recreational rider

 

[Skalman]

Giro continues to disappoint, after the horrible Giro last year, it continues to ask a serious a question to be the worst GC this year as well

 

[Lequack]

Remco should put on leg warmers, I don't think he will get very warm from racing.

Good on AG2R. Finally someone looking to do something

 

[Riek s]

Can't imagine nobody attacks today. The likes of Vine and some Ineos 2nd tier rider. Surely they know on these gradients nothing can be done, waiting for the last 5km.

But its not for the stage win anymore. so just for a little bit of time. (they are already rather far back as well, don't think it serves a purpose to gain some time back for those riders.). (unless they can still catch the breakaway)

Agrreed. It used to be on par with Vuelta for the GT with most action. But now it's like the Tour, without all the fun stuff of the Tour. Basically a lot of sprint stages, shallow climbs, all the climbs being in the middle of stages etc.

Literally no races happen without this kind of bitching…

 

[Escarabajo]

They almost crashed because they were going too slow!!!

Peoples expectation for a stage this early in a really hard giro is hilarious I agree

It's marvelous. And Abruzzo in general is a great and underrated region for outdoor activities like cycling, hiking, etc.

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Looks like serious headwind

 

[Escarabajo]

Pedersen for the win!

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Crashed, or fell over?

 

[BR2]

I need to go grocery shopping. Is it worth it to wait until the stage is done?
