Giro d'Italia Stage 15: Mestre - Monte Zoncolan (222km)

[auscyclefan94]

Very well done by Evans. Close to the edge, but still fighting to hang on.

He's a batler. Go battle evans!

 

[Moondance]

Basso is gonna have to break Evans soon if he wants to drop him.

When the climbs slightly flattens out in a bit Evans will be able to recover.

 

[luckyboy]

That was close.

Shades of Mechov v. Di Luca here.

Wouldn't say that tbh. It looks like Evans is gonna die hanging onto Basso, Menchov just rode up to The Killer breathing through his nose..

Literally no time checks to anyone else

 

[Parrot23]

What percentage of max HR would these guys be at, any one know for real?

95-100%?

 

[trompe le monde]

Vino climbing well, as is Cunego.

 

[Cobblestones]

Vino really not that far back.

 

[Eyeballs Out]

I think Evans is within his limits and will drop Basso near the top

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Arroyo only 1.10 behind. This is not bad.

He can still winn the giro.

 

[powderpuff]

coming up to a 20% section

 

[auscyclefan94]

I hope Aldo Sassi is enjoying this.

he's fighting cancer isn't he?

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Evans looks like he is stoned to death

 

[Galic Ho]

haha. Arroyo is getting the domestique to pull him up, gesturing to him to take the lead. OMFG!

 

[Jamsque]

Was that Arroyo telling his team-mate to slow down or he was going to blow up?

 

[Moondance]

Wouldn't say that tbh. It looks like Evans is gonna die hanging onto Basso, Menchov just rode up to The Killer breathing through his nose..

Well... Di Luca had Menchov in some serious trouble at times.

 

[Parrot23]

Evans doesn't look that bad to me. He's always laboured looking.

 

[issoisso]

And now the 22% section. If Evans can get past it (a big ask), he'll be looking infinitely better

Was that Arroyo telling his team-mate to slow down or he was going to blow up?

Seemed like " Martin's all over the place. Just go steady and ignore him"

EDIT: meaning...don't accelerate and decelarate like him.

It's only natural that young guys like Martin and Jeanesson won't know to set a steady pace like a veteran such as Arroyo

 

[bobs nob]

they both look like they are suffering pretty bad

 

[balkou]

Gazzetta's commentators have better info, because the hear the radiocorsa's infos.

 

[auscyclefan94]

come on cadel. vino looks reasonable.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Mollema not far from the pink jersey

 

[Spare Tyre]

he's fighting cancer isn't he?

Brain tumour

 

[Moondance]

1"24 to Arroyo.

Good, but not good enough. They're gonna have to take more.

 

[BroDeal]

I think Evans will hang with Basso and then take the sprint.

 

[RedZone]

Time gaps starting to blow out a bit

 

[luckyboy]

Cunego's ahead of Vino!?
