Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2023, stage 16: Sabbio Chiese - Monte Bondone 203 km

TGH vs Remco would have been great here.

Well guys, thats what you get for giving Thomas half of the votes of Almeida and a fifth of Roglic in the 2nd restday poll.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Plateau de Salaison vibes from Roglic/Kuss

 

[Berniece]

I hope Thomas also rides the Vuelta with the same form as the Giro. Would be cool to see him win all 3 GT's at such a late age.

 

[noob]

Almeida in pain is at least a view I recognize

 

[dobrien]

Feck off Kuss, guy does nothing for half a year and then arises to choke everything to death.

Sepp Kuss has one job to do. He is literally doing EXACTLY what JV are paying him to do and on his day does it better than anyone else currently riding.

 

[glassmoon]

it's too late though... kuss will save rogla in the flatter last 3kms... but now they know he isn't 100% OK at least

 

[DNP-Old]

Tosatto had warned us for this. And he was right.

 

[wickedw]

Third weeks and Roglic, not a good fit.

 

[Mayomaniac]

Yeah, Kuss is not riding Thomas down on the more shallow gradients...

 

[Logic-is-your-friend]

Caruso going to drop them all on the descent.

 

[Ilmaestro99]

Geoghegan Hart and Remco would have had a legendary battel whilst these guys floundered 2 minutes down

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Roglic losing time to G3. That's the sound of a crack.

 

[DNP-Old]

it's too late though... kuss will save rogla in the flatter last 3kms... but now they know he isn't 100% OK at least

I'll take Thomas against Kuss on that terrain any day of the week.

 

[Scarponi]

Almedia is a cuck

 

[Mayomaniac]

Grenadiers Cycling Network is going full Kirbygasm right now...

 

[saunaking]

Fing Thomas looks like he is on one of the E-Giro bikes

 

[QueenStagiaire]

Useless timegaps

 

[Tim Cahill]

Almedia is very fast, think he takes the sprint but it's in his interest to work certainly.

Having said that the pain face is hurting me to look at.

 

[Red Rick]

Roglic paying for that attack on Fossombrone

 

[Mayomaniac]

I think Almeida fancies his chances against Thomas on the really steep stuff.

 

[VayaVayaVaya]

Roglic remind me more and more of latter year Contador. Now we know why he hasn’t attacked since stage 8.

 

[glassmoon]

is there a 10s bonus on the line?

 

[Elos Anjos]

Lefevre called back UAE. He wants Almeida back.

 

[Didinho]

Looks like Thomas has the upper hand today for the win. Hoping that can hang on.
