Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2023, stage 12: Bra - Rivoli 179 km

[Tim Cahill]

Great scenes, look at the suffering on Denz' face

 

[Red Rick]

Denz is acting so hard I'm fully convinced he can go at least 10 W harder

 

[Salvarani]

Frigo attacks!

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Niko denz incredible Grinta. What a fight. Berrick should have attacked more the climb

 

[SafeBet]

Israel is doing a great job in breakaways during this Giro.

Did you have to include Nico because you couldn’t misspell Denz?

 

[Tricycle Rider]

Rarely I have been this disengaged in a bike race..

I'm trying to stay in the race, so to speak, but seeing all these crashes and DNFs it's becoming more and more challenging. I gotta dig deep here...

 

[topcat]

All this talk of tomorrow. Carpe diem. Small peloton going slow. Skineous train. It’s making me nostalgic.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Did you have to include Nico because you couldn’t misspell Denz?

I'm just bad with names and type fast on my phone so this happen a lot. A lot of the spelling mistake are autocorrect now. Actually I managed to spell Nico correct the previous page aswell, got it wrong this time

Worst first 12 days I can remember in a while, god damn. Thankfully I havent watched that much due to work. Lets wait and see in the mountains, it can't get much worse than this.

 

[Red Rick]

Oh look Denz is surfing in the wheels on the descent and still pretending to suffer

 

[Filippo_3467]

Denz is acting so hard I'm fully convinced he can go at least 10 W harder

I was thinking the same... the way Denz was climbing here at the Giro and the whole year I don't think he was too close to being actually dropped.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Shame on me for expecting Kuss to do something cool

 

[Red Rick]

2019, 2020 and 2022 all weren't much better.

Would be a great first pro win for Berwick.

He was a decent climber in the U23 ranks.

Berwick has yet to show his WT standard - It's been a strange Giro.

 

[HelloDolly]

I guess UAE havent much faith in Almedia

 

[Red Rick]

I thought Jumbo had like 4-5 guys in the peloton 2km from the top of the climb and that was before I realised they had 2 ahead on the road too

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Well, Caruso and Roglic didn't attack. No more reason to enjoy the stage

 

[Valv.Piti]

2019, 2020 and 2022 all weren't much better.

Sure, but is it worse than THIS? The only enjoyable stages for me has been the time trials.

 

[DNP-Old]

Marco Frigo is quite possibly the worst technical rider of the last million years. A few years back he was the leader in GC in l'Isard and got destroyed by Alexandre Balmer in the descend of the Hourquette d'Ancizan, losing more than ten minutes.

 

[dobrien]

it can't get much worse than this.

We are doomed for sure now!! ;-)

 

[Red Rick]

I mean if you didn't enjoy stage 8 then why are you watching right now?

 

[Volderke]

Berwick is racing like a novice.

 

[Netserk]

Kuss should have dropped down on the climb. Waste of energy now.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Denz has done a lot of sitting on and attacking, hopefully Skujins takes it as he always engages with the fans.
