Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2023, Stage 6: Napoli – Napoli 162 km

[Wvv]

A direct translation to Dutch would be uitbreek.

It's actually 'uitbraak' then, because 'uitbreek' is not really a noun and in meaning much closer to something like 'to demo a kitchen'.
'Uitbraak' is a possible synonym for 'escape' or 'attack' in cycling lingo here. For volcano eruptions, we use 'uitbarsting' (like 'outburst').

Anyway, back to the race!

What happened to Gaviria after his very good 2017 and 2018 seasons? Just leaving QS or injuries or other problems of some sort?

 

[glassmoon]

fuga bidone... snooze fest starting

 

[Netserk]

Grande Bardiani! Keep hope alive.

 

[Netserk]

Booh, Ganna. Don't you wanna play with Küng?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

If Groupama, EF and Green Project want to make the break, surely you pace the peloton then make your move on the climb when the gap is small enough to bridge?

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Yesterday we concluded that wet southern Italian roads are made of ice rink, today it's time to conclude that dry southern Italian roads are made of beds of nails. That's an impressive amount of punctures so far. Milan alone has had two, the amount of pressure on his tyres given his size can't help.

 

[Carols]

Remco had a good night of sleep according to the doctor and his mood is good.

Thank goodness he's in a good mood. No histrionics would be welcome .

Last thing for full disclosure:

Oudbrood would be gammelbrød in Danish.

And Jonathan Milan seems to have a "subscription" - I think he had to change his front wheel 3 times now...

well... Napoli is a "full of garbage" major part of the year... hard to clean it for one day properly

PS: don't get me wrong, it's nice town regarding the history and the surrounding nature... but very dirty since 10-15 yrs ago

Do you also eat gammel sträler for Christmas like in Iceland?

Gammel is also used in Dutch, at least in informal Flemish (not sure about it being used in the Netherlands), in a meaning i suppose to be of the same origin, used for something that is about to break down or highly imperfect. As in if you use it a few times more, it will fall apart.

Did Bouwman get a fine? Or was there not enough evidence.

He could've been doing anything back there. Even nothing!

[Tour de Berghem]

Giada Borgato ( on RAI motorbike in the group) said that Remco is in the last positions of the peloton. Now Valico di Chiunzi, we will know more about his conditions

 

[glassmoon]

so... 36, 37 and 38 years old get into breakaway...

 

[Potomac]

Vaughters Speaks!

Getting away from the irritating kids!

I just don't understand why this Giro parcours was seen as really hard. It's super boring? As if riders were going to race all those sprintstages with some hills in the beginning like one day races.

There's like 4 hard GC stages apart from the TTs, rest are either sprints or (not even hard) breakaway stages.

 

[Carrick-On-Seine]

Thank goodness he's in a good mood. No histrionics would be welcome .

And that includes forum histrionics.

 

[King Boonen]

Assuming there's no chance of wind on that coast?
