Il Lombardia 2025, monument, October 11

[Peyroteo94]

Roglic helps Pogacar more with a Bora kit than with a Slovenia kit.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Any DS who thinks it's a good idea to help UAE in Lombardia in the year of our lord 2025 should be fired out of a cannon.

Antique Roadtrip > Pogbardia

 

[Andy262]

The scenery is gorgeous.

 

[Brullnux]

I wonder would this be a better route/have more contenders if they did it in reverse? Front load the hard climbs, and then do the hard side of the Ghisallo 40km from the finish?

That's basically what they do every other year. It is Como -> Bergamo one year and vice versa

 

[dazaau]

Pidders caught on the wrong side of the split. Really not sure what Bora are up to

 

[Ilmaestro99]

I like Victor langelotti's experimental approach to the last part of the season, doing breakways and pretending to be a belgien rouleur. Next year he will be back to dominating uphill sprints, no doubt.

Skujns is tired of the media omerta.
Take it as you will.

 

[Berniece]

I hope Simmons, Pidders, Healy, Skujins, Tulett, Scaroni, Rogla or Seixas makes the podium. Hopefully two of them.

It will be very sad and boring if it ends up Pogi, Evenepoel, Del Toro.

I don't think Del Toro will be on the podium. Too far, too hard, as shown during WC RR

LIDL doesn't have much to complain about this year...

And motorcycles aree a problem for years in every race. It's no good playing the victim over something that affects everyone.

The motos in the Italian classics especially this last few weeks have been laughable.

 

[No Excuses]

Only160 km left, time for the last pogenheimer of this season

 

[Unterlenkerfahrend]

Just tuned in, is CyclistAbi in the Bora car today? What the hell is going on???

He had stomach issues that day acc to pog

 

[Tim Cahill]

I can only assume that Bora are on a punishment ride for missing the break or that the Belgian national coach has taken his position up early in the team car.

 

[Pantani_lives]

Interesting early break. Vervaeke is a satellite rider for Evenepoel in their last race together. Bilbao, Simmons and Ganna have the quality to last until deep in the final.

That must be drone footage of the statue on top of the monastery. A helicopter wouldn't get that close.

 

[moljoh]

pogi almost dropped

 

[Dazed and Confused]

UAE has had enough of the kiddies pace set by Bora...

 

[KoopaCycling]

Race start at around 85 km from the finish?

 

[Pantani_lives]

pogi almost dropped

Probably tired from the EC.

 

[Strawberry_Jams]

it amazes me how so many actively support pog. But then I suppose I also wonder why people support Manchester City and not Northampton Town so.
A win is so much more exciting when it doesn't happen every single week.

I don’t have a problem with Pog winning. It’s the strength of his team that contributes to the sense of boredom with it all.

 

[Salvarani]

Jordan = Pog

 

[Tim Cahill]

They deserve everything they're about to get. At least QS tried to get a guy in there.
