Il Lombardia 2021 (October 9th)

Where? When How? Did it it not happen

Where? Whereever he was at the moment.
When? When he was - thinking about - making the thread.
How? "Hmm... maybe I'll make a poll... naaah..."

The next thing we need is an almost-poll. Whatever that is...

Mixing in the senors and senoritas like a true mad lad. Nibali probably spontaneously combusted one voodoo doll if he heard that.

Forget Trek, Mollema won a monument in his career and now they think he's Brad Pitt.

Vino should start a movie production company next year and hand the main role to Nibali. Something like "The Godfather: The Return".

But The Godfather is still Vino himself, right?

LBL: "I made him an offer he couldn't refuse."

Strong field indeed.

How can you omit man in form Neilson Powless from your EF highlights!

Agreed on Powless. This seems like one of the best fields I remember for Lombardia. Hope weather cooperates so we can actually see the broadcast!

 

[Froome]

It would be a perfect field with WVA and the MV(d)P of cycling world.

 

[gregrowlerson]

It seems that the race isn't being shown on Australian television, so I'll probably 'watch' it tonight in this thread.

Keep me updated guys (well, y'all better than standard commentators anyway). Let me know when it's in the bag.

 

[Leinster]

With all the excitement about the quality of the field you just know it’ll be Tao out sprinting Meintjies at the finish from a break full of 2nd-tier contenders that nobody was able to organize a chase behind.

You mean we’re going to have a Zaugg-level winner?

And the forum will have even more beef with Ol' Dirty Brailsford.

Is that the rapper now known as Yay-Z?

 

[Leinster]

I mean we’re going to have a Zaugg/Leipheimer/Moscon level of podium. Possibly with some added Horner thrown in.

 

[SafeBet]

Weather should be fine. Temperatures around 8-10 on top of the hills though.

Gettin' ready for the big day?

 

[Salvarani]

Should be a great race if anything like the last few races!

Last race for Dan Martin

So, live from 10:30 CET. Better not miss the Remco attack.

You mean we’re going to have a Zaugg-level winner?

Zaugg was flying at that time of the year, and was just the best that day - a dull breakaway win wouldn't live up to it. We'd need Lorenzo Rota dropping Roglic on the final bump, and solo to victory.

They have started the livestats feed on PCS, but no update on @SafeBet 's bride's dress yet...

 

[Lequack]

Pogacar forgot to update his saddle
