Meanwhile Hagenes took his second win in Drenthe this month (not many people who can say that) by winning the opening TT in Olympia's Tour.
What's H like as a rider? I figure he got body for the hard races, can he climb?I think he's Hagn by now...
He is Wout van Aert from den Aldi.What's H like as a rider? I figure he got body for the hard races, can he climb?
Yeah I was wondering the same, although even today he was dropped pretty convincingly by Quinn and the others on the final hill, so he's probably not in his best shape.Gloag 6th, how did he lose 4 minutes yesterday?
Hes more of a Gilbert type of rider. Great punch in step hills and a lot of power in flat. Decent sprint, but not competitive in the bunch sprints. I would expect him to become a RVV/LBL contender but in a Norwegian Podcast last week he talked about Roubaix being his big dream.What's H like as a rider?

Must've been a pretty entertaining stage (if only we could watch it).
DNF today.Gloag 6th, how did he lose 4 minutes yesterday?
Padun and great shape are rarely been seen together... When he is in great shape he can be one of the best climbers in the world, so race like Coppi Bartali shouldn't be so testing for him like it isIf Padun happens to be in good shape he could attack long range today or tomorrow and EF has the numbers to control the race behind.
True, but yesterday he was the strongest rider from the group behind, which indicates a better shape than what we've seen recently.Padun and great shape are rarely been seen together...
Yep, hope is alive for me, cause i thought he was dead prior to yesterday))True, but yesterday he was the strongest rider from the group behind, which indicates a better shape than what we've seen recently.
He's been sick. And today he crashed, so that's a new setback.Yeah I was wondering the same, although even today he was dropped pretty convincingly by Quinn and the others on the final hill, so he's probably not in his best shape.
It's a shame we don't have TV coverage. Seems like a great racing so farMythical Mark and Pozzovivo have allegedly attacked the peloton on the steep section and have 15 seconds over the top, such a treat for the organisers of the race to have the two that will battle it out for the top step of the Giro podium in a months time here in good form.
Pozzovivo is only at 90% , he's getting stronger for the Giro, scary. Wheelsucker Padun will be destroyedMythical Mark and Pozzovivo have allegedly attacked the peloton on the steep section and have 15 seconds over the top, such a treat for the organisers of the race to have the two that will battle it out for the top step of the Giro podium in a months time here in good form.
According to Italian websites Padun did a leadout for Healy.Looks like it was quite close.
