Teams & Riders Everybody needs a little bit of Roglstomp in their lives

[Oldermanish]

IMO Remco is clearly better at this point, but I am surprised Roglic is riding so well given his prep. I think the Giro will look different.

Neither is clearly better unless Roglic is "pretending" to be able to sprint faster. He's not nearly at 100%, nor is Remco. I wouldn't be surprised if Primoz hits a wall considering his late start and needs an easy stage or two. Today could've been that day and he knew no one would chase Remco if he didn't initiate it. He was there and used what energy he had to close and minimize damage.
What did surprise me is how much d*cking around the group did while those two rode away.

Short interview in Slovenian, Primož looks to be in good spirits!

I think that might be the first time I've heard Primoz speaking Slovenian. He seems very fluent in it, though I didn't understand a word.

That damned smile

Most people are fluent in their native language, to be fair (apparently not Nibali).

Lost a couple of seconds to Evenepoel at stage 3. On the plus side distanced Ciccone and still holding on to leaders jersey. All in all likely still riding on plan A.

A beer and a smile at the end of today's stage was hence a must!

Nibali speak with his art

 

[red_flanders]

I think he's looking a lot better than in T/A. He was hanging on (barely in some cases) and sprinting for wins. Strong, but he looks better so far in this race. Also possible that the level in this race is a bit lower than T/A. Hard to say.

Either way, great battle so far, very entertaining. Bodes well for the Giro.

He says the same thing as in English interview that @Red Rick posted. ”yesterday‘s climb was too short, today it was too long”. Looks around if anyone‘s laughing and adds that Remco was really good today…

Nibali speak with his art

Or his trophy case.

Apparently he wants everyone to come view it (while he rides away holding on to his team car at 80 kph).

I didn't know Roglič can speak Slovenian.

Remco fans are obsessed. I'm just tired of constantly read their gloating if's and when's.

Hefty smurf and his fans will continue to upset you, Gargamel!

 

[Big Doopie]

They come here too. And they gloat in every racing thread also. No way to avoid them. It's like a really bad body odor.

Omg. @Gargamel35 is my new favorite poster:

“The Most Aggrieved Person on the Internets”

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Is it okay to be obsessed with Gargamels obsession about obsessed Remco fans?

 

[Netserk]

Onwards and upwards, Rogla has continued to deliver more than I hoped for! He should also be the second strongest on Lo Port, and then there's still 6 weeks before the Giro starts. He'll be ready, no doubt. From Sassotetto to this, I have no complaints.

Neither is clearly better unless Roglic is "pretending" to be able to sprint faster. He's not nearly at 100%, nor is Remco. I wouldn't be surprised if Primoz hits a wall considering his late start and needs an easy stage or two. Today could've been that day and he knew no one would chase Remco if he didn't initiate it.

In the battle for 3rd there is nothing to gain from chasing Evenepoel and Rogla. UAE had doms left, so why should anyone else put their nose in the wind?

In his defense, I say that only the base, petty things can obssess us so he should rather move on.

You seem like a Remco fan. In that case - the circle is complete

He's kinda right. Remco fans are mostly an annoying bunch.

Should see yourself when Remco gets compared to Contador
