Giro d'Italia Giro d’Italia 2024, Stage 19: Mortegliano - Sappada, 157k

[Samu Cuenca]

What size is this Peonis?

Smaller than Cockfosters.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Yeah that's that I think, was fun

 

[ppanther92]

With the 10+9 riders it finally seems to be settled

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Peleton finally decided to sit up. I guess everything will explode again on Passo Duron.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

What's the point of aurelian Paret pentre these days he doesn't do anything

 

[Samamba]

Steinhauser could win his 2nd, those guys up front have wasted way more energy already.

 

[ppanther92]

So who are the favourites?

Alaphilippe vs. Steinhauser vs. Narvaez?

 

[Tim Cahill]

What's the point of aurelian Paret pentre these days he doesn't do anything

Moral support for his more talented brother Valentin, who its great to see in good form a mere 3 weeks after almost starving to death in a Japanese concentration camp.

 

[Samamba]

Alaphilippe and Narvaez will have a hard time covering the EF attacks.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Now is the time for a Bardiani Masterclass.

It wasn't.

 

[titan31]

Pretty poor by some teams not making this break. Cofidis, Arkea, IPT, Tudor not making it is poor

 

[Lexman]

Verre with a chasse patate?

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

Voigts solution when you don't feel great and there are many attacks: attack. It's better to be on the giving end of pain, than on the receiving end. Also, in his opinion to hold on at the back is as hard as attacking, but psychologically more stressfull.

 

[SafeBet]

So EF and Visma actually did a good job after all. They will be briding with a few riders. Peloton stopped.

De Marchi also made it, he must be happy.

It's his home stage and possibly his last ever chance to win a Giro stage, I'm happy too.

 

[pastronef]

50 kmh average for the first 77 kilometers

 

[SafeBet]

Verre with a chasse patate?

RAI reported he was 1'30" behind the break so no chance to bridge unless they take it easy for a few kms.

 

[pastronef]

5 minutes. has a break had that big advantage in this years Giro yet?

were you watching? looked easy did it?

 

[Nick2413]

4 teams with multiple riders in the break. The riders who just bridged should be freshest. Looking good for Visma

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Would like de marchi to won but if this break makes it I don't see how he can do it. I would expect it to be between Stenhaiser, Alaphilippe, Vendrame and Tratnik???

The other teams managed it. I'm not sure I remember any of the ones I mentioned bar Arkea even try

 

[Mayomaniac]

I really like Friuli as a region. Not to mention that you can get a house for 100-130k in the area between Tolmezzo and Ovaro.

 

[pastronef]

if you can spot the big panels with villages/towns names on the road, you can see it's bilingual, and the Friulian language has come kind of Catalunyan nuance

this is why I campaigned to have a clown badge on these forums but CN said no.

Needed one for yourself, that's understandable
