Giro d'Italia 2020, stage 12: Cesenatico - Cesenatico 204 km

[Eclipse]

Imagine being in the break thinking 'aw yeah I've got a great chance the peloton are going so slow and my companions aren't outstanding' only to get through on the radio that NTT have taken 3 mins off you in less than 10k lol

very disheartening for a stage hunter

i think the good climbers in the front group should just up the pace now

The accusation is that they're hiding things. Then why not go home? What are they gonna do? Fire him?

As of yesterday, that's an Ackerman

Safety concerns are justified when supported by some substance, not "herd feelings", personal biased views etc... In any case, he can always stick to Ronde van Vlaanderen.

(Fuglsang has not been polite but he is at least objective lol)

You didn't read the edit.
Sunweb source says those policemen were in their hotel.

Wow, they just cut 6 minutes off the gap in a quarter of an hour.

 

[Eclipse]

NTT have absolutely hammered this.

It's always nice when someone unexpected steps up and tries to change the race

 

[spalco]

NTT seems to be pretty interested in closing the gap, could be serious GC happenings after all.

Just realized that maybe Meintjes is riding this Giro and tried a google search mistakenly typing "mejinties cycling". Google says:

Did you mean:

majestic cycling
mental cycling

Chapeau to NTT for giving it a go both on Tuesday and today.
A pleasant surprise.

They could glue his legs together. Then it'll be hard for him to do his usual 300 k training rides.

Somewhere in the distance a crowd begins to chant “Pozzo! Pozzo! Pozzo!”

Casual fans probably thinking of Pozzato instead

Somewhere in the distance Remco's thinking "if that guy can do that at 37, I'll need a bigger bag

Nobody outside the hardcore fans has been cheering from Pozzato since 2012 (probably).

 

[Eclipse]

And here comes the rain muwahahhaa. Let the carnage commence

 

[broppo]

sunderland is cooked already. NTT should be careful not to burn all their riders too soon!

 

[gregrowlerson]

Pozzovivo, Pozzato.

Let's call the whole thing off.

Casual fans probably thinking of Pozzato instead

I usually am

I'm not sure that qualifies as an "update" or a "edit". Maybe as an unofficial development, rumors! The official statement has not changed 1 cent.
Everybody can believe everything, even a random Sunweb-related unkown source. We'll see how it develops
Peace

Zakarin trademark "attack"

 

[WKA311]

Zakarin making sure he misses every single split this year.

 

[Eclipse]

At some point as a teammate you must just want to refuse to drag Zakarin back after yet another issue lol.
