Anything less than 6-7' would be very risky.The Barb said:How much would the break need at the bottom of the final climb? 4 minutes?
It totally depends on which team drives the peloton in those last 50km.Eshnar said:Anything less than 6-7' would be very risky.The Barb said:How much would the break need at the bottom of the final climb? 4 minutes?
I doubt it.Laplaz said:Interesting to see that Pozzo has 2 guys in the break. Maybe trying something already on the Calascio climb?
