Giro 2012: Route Rumours / Our wishes

[roundabout]

Stage 12 ok, scenic and might be good

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

lol is that Cipo

Indeed, is he riding?

 

[Zaschrona]

Stage 14 - first real mountains

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Considering a lot of those Stages, it's no wonder they invited Guardini....
...but did they avoid the bridges well enough?

 

[roundabout]

Joux+Cervinia ok

edit: stage 15 ok

 

[Eshnar]

Col Du Joux

 

[Netserk]

Letdown so far...

 

[jens_attacks]

di luca targeting cervinia i'm sure

 

[Descender]

Oh my, a Mac. That does leave me clueless. I thought they always worked

But someone here's got to have an Idea how to fix your problem.
I'd still google Mac+Flash player or Mac+Stream... just for the chance.

And there is Contador, just as they promised us.

Danke danke. I'll sort it out.



What a **** parcours...

 

[Eshnar]

Stage 15 as expected. good.

 

[Forunculo]

Nibali for stage 17

 

[jens_attacks]

i like the route but it lacks a long itt.i will be happy when rujano will slaughter everyone though

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

I mean.... Stage 15(!!!!) is the first they care to talk about in more detail.
Sagan should try to win this.

 

[roundabout]

Stage 19 ok

 

[Eshnar]

YEAH Manghen + Pampeago + Lavazè + Pampeago!

 

[roundabout]

Mortirolo looks far from Stelvio on this graph

 

[Waterloo Sunrise]

Excellent, no more bull**** little hills on sprint stages, from what is visable so far. 7 shots in the first fortnight, so I'd expect all the decent sprinters to turn up.

 

[Descender]

Screwing it up again...

 

[The Hitch]

These profiles dont hype up the mountains.

Mortirolo looks like Superbesse on this profile.

 

[roundabout]

Excellent, no more bull**** little hills on sprint stages, from what is visable so far. 7 shots in the first fortnight, so I'd expect all the decent sprinters to turn up.

Have to check the details

Wait, they say 6 stages for sprinters

 

[The Hitch]

Whatd they say about Zomegnan?

 

[Zaschrona]

Well.. it looks like TdF 2012 without long ITT.. Give us Zomegnan back!

 

[Vino attacks everyone]

Rujano looks soooo cool

 

[Descender]

Honestly, this is the worst Giro route in recent years.

The first two weeks are plain awful. Basically boring flat sprinters stages or boring easy mountain stages, where everything will be decided in the last kms.

And the last week has two great stages, Cortina and Pampeago, but the last mountain stage is very badly designed, I doubt anything of significance will happen on the Mortirolo and there's too much flat between it and the Stelvio.

And last but not least, the TT kms is a major joke... I give it a 3/10.

With a good team around him, and his head on straight, Rujano is top favourite on this parcourrs.
