Giro d'Italia Giro d'Italia 2025 Stage 5: Ceglie Messapica – Matera

[Ilmaestro99]

Just rewatched the 2020 finish, demare was absolutely flying that autumn. Sad how quickly he dropped off.

Will also never forget degekolb's 1km uphill sprint battle with Marco canola here in 2013

To be fair he was still very good in 2022.

Cyclocross stalwart in the break!
Update: sorry , attention deficit taking its toll!

It was harder than I thought. If a team smashes it on the uphill drag at 3km only Pedersen should survive. So logically Trek should be the ones smashing that uphill.

I read that as Star Wars at first, but at least I didn't post in the wrong thread

Good interview with roglic. Relaxed with the required confidence.

I also liked Pidcock's interview, he wants this stage so hopefully he'll do well.

Like yesterday a Polti rider in the break, this time it's Bais

Milesi praying for a puncture.....

It's a nice, all-Italian break right now isn't it?

 

[Potomac]

Nice quarry

 

[Red Rick]

Breakaway already wants to go home lol

well, when you see that the peloton is not giving more than 2min30 and they already ride to keep you there from 140km to go...

I stupidly looked at this PCS stage profile last night, and then advocated Pedersen being in the break today

Stage profiles Giro d'Italia 2025 Stage 5

It's a bit of a depressing vicious cycle with breakaways on flat stages honestly.

Are there many males named Taco in the Netherlands or were van der Hoorn's parents just being quirky?

Yes, but even more called Enchilada!

Yeah, today is basically a replay of yesterday's sleepy stage, hopefully things will liven up a bit later on once they hit some hills,
