Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2025 Stage 15: Fiume Veneto – Asiago

[Netserk]

Conci stealing Fortunato's points?

 

[noob]

It looks dramatic in that angle for sure

 

[perico]

I did not see the 2004 Giro. I have some memories of the 2009 one, and mainly the TTs but I always assumed Petrano was on sunday, and apparently I was wrong

2004 sucked donkey ***. 2009 was forgettable to the point that I don’t remember it.

Oh wait… 2009 was the one Armstrong rode with Leipheimer. Yeah that sucked.

Climbing: Groves > Gaudu....

People have been saying for years now that Gaudu needed to ride the other GT's and not just focus on the Tour. They said it would be beneficial to his morale.

I don't think that's going so well tbh.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Conci looking at the screen, realizing we have 18km to go to the top.....

 

[Tim Cahill]

Letting Baroncini do a few hundred watts on the front of a 25k mountain I see, shades of Ian Stannard!

2004 sucked donkey b@11s. 2009 was forgettable to the point that I don’t remember it.

Oh wait… 2009 was the one Armstrong rode with Leipheimer. Yeah that sucked.

Only memorable moment is seeing Menchov going down in the TT

 

[Peyroteo94]

UAE is just too strong. Why this route sucks so bad?

 

[Samu Cuenca]

It's a shame we have the internet. In the old days Rubio would have been able to hide behind Formolo for a long time before the mean peleton had realised he was there.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Oh boy thanks for reminding me Robbie, sure can't wait to watch "Mathieu van der Poel" make his big MTB comeback on the special new bike his team have made for him.

 

[noob]

So it was doomed to happen that cycling changed as the media landscape did into shorter attention span and shock effects over quality. Also they started air the whole stages so viewers wanted more drama. When I watched cycling 2007 it was still an attrition test.

Nowadays the attrition is in positioning instead it would seem. A very different kind of attrition. It is not the same kind of sport.

Only memorable moment is seeing Menchov going down in the TT

Pellizotti blasting Armstrong from his wheel like a kid? Di Luca attacking Menchov over and over again up towards Blockhaus!?

 

[noob]

Oh, also todays cycling will favour youth while yesterday would favour older cyclists.

It's a freaking beautiful road though

 

[E_F_]

Can't be bothered to tune in... How big is the peloton? Who's pulling?

 

[danielzu]

Do you think the gap would be higher without rubio at front or would UAE ride its pace anyway

 

[Netserk]

Ayuso mechanical?

 

[Peyroteo94]

Time to work Visma!

 

[noob]

Ayuso dropped why?

 

[Netserk]

Ayuso mechanical?

Bike change now.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Ayuso is riding quite a strange race I have to say, why's he there

 

[noob]

Ok Ayuso new bike.

 

[Netserk]

Steinhauser and Fortunato with a gap. Jayco in pursuit.

 

[Tim Cahill]

Nice to see Daniel Martinez recover from his ailment of having to work for someone else.

Nice to see Daniel Martinez recover from his ailment of having to work for someone else.

He's an embarrasment

It's a three week anger management course.
