So, psychologically the first batch of stages now over, Rogla rode a solid ITT and in numbers two and a half minutes down on race leader. Some of that accumulated due to team tactics, mechanical and individual performance. Going into stage 6 i feel that small inroads will start to be made, finale of stage 6 looks rather suitable for that. Jonas and Remco seem well in reach, Pogi likely to be tackled on the GTOAT terrain.
I am rather optimistic and like the fact Rogla is tackling this Tour edition as it would Vuelta.
