Giro dell'Emilia 2024 (Oct. 5)

[AmRacer]

The GOAT is on a coffee ride.

 

[AnotherArmChair]

Still some ham to race for.

that might inspire Remco

 

[ashhutch1997]

He got reeled back in though, that usually never happens once he's really gone. But according to himself you are right, because he said he had no bad day at the Tour.

If he was on a bad day he would have just followed the wheels and rode for a sprint.

 

[Brullnux]

Great ride by Piganzoli!

 

[AmRacer]

Biggest gap for the 2nd since?

They are not racing.

 

[Salvarani]

How Valter didnt fall was impressive

 

[Krzysztof_O]

They should do WC on this Bologna perfect 9-km circuit (20 repetitions will do). It would be all about individual strength, purely up & down, no flat aero sections.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Valter has a future in gravel racing.

 

[johnymax]

Was Roglic even in the chasing group? I don't think I've seen him.

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

No, mister fan in the Adidas track suit, Pogacar does not enjoy your running next to him while screaming in his ear.

 

[AmRacer]

Remco went to a candy shop.

 

[Netserk]

Was Roglic even in the chasing group? I don't think I've seen him.

Might as well DNF. Nothing to race for here.

 

[ice&fire]

He claimed he had one at the Giro, but refused to say which day.
I guess stage 11 of the tour was a hunger knock, but still a bad day by this years standards, even loosing a sprint to Vingegaard.

It must have been the day he was threatened with a DQ for wearing an allegedly non-compliant suit.

 

[ontheroad]

Remco abandoning the race. It seems like he's just as fed up as the viewers.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Remco with a great tribute to that guy who says he would have beaten Pogacar in liege

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

If he was on a bad day he would have just followed the wheels and rode for a sprint.

Not so sure about that if he smelled blood. But as I said a hunger knock is the most likely explanation. But that kind of is a bad day though.
During the GTs there are plenty of stages to do nothing though, if you have a bad day in one of them it doesn't show.
Also it's hard to know what a bad day means given Pogacar is wildly above the rest and relative to his best shape, his bad days might still be enough to win given the right scenario.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

How Valter didnt fall was impressive

I didn't catch the name at the time but that was a very impressive save by Valter.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Might as well DNF. Nothing to race for here.

By that logic, every cyclist in existence might as well DNS any race featuring Pogacar as things stand.

 

[johnymax]

Remco abandoned. It'll be an asterisk victory for Pogi after all.

 

[AnotherArmChair]

No ham for Remco

He has taken his ball and gone home


Seriously Remco , Roglic etc dont want to race for 2nd so we dont even have that to look at

 

[Didinho]

Remco DNF. Just end the season in this form.

 

[Tricycle Rider]

19km to go for those of us who are still watching

 

[tobydawq]

He looks quite a bit slower now.

 

[Salvarani]

Remco went to a candy shop.

Bulk up season for Remco now

Remco with a great tribute to that guy who says he would have beaten Pogacar in liege

Pure madness hearing some Remco fans. They should be happy that Zigart wasn't summoned for Olympics
