Stage 16: Ponte Di Legno-Val Martello/Martelltal (139 km)

[Eclipse]

The weather easing up just in time for the Stelvio?

Giro twitter feed says Pozzo and Evans attacked? no pictures for me due to the tennis. Get lost Hewitt and lose this bloody match!!!!

nobody knows for sure. coverage is extremely patchy for obvious reasons. tons of conflicting reports. They are together for sure, but could be ahead or behind.

 

[De Snelle Duif]

Evans on 40' behind Uran

 

[luckyboy]

Vuillermoz and Cataldo are with Pelizotti and they are leading

weren't the colombians just with him

wtf

 

[Broth3r]

Let me guess, Eurosport?

There's an entire generation of europeans who grew up hating tennis because of that. Eurosport is obsessed with it and it tends to overrun whatever other sport people want to watch

Oh yeah, I'm not stranger to it. I just can't get used to it, i guess.

And bloody hell, they're on the 4th deuce of a 5-4 on the 4th set. And -oh, match point, wait up - NOPE, deuce 5. My ****ing luck.

[burning]

wtf

Well, everything is changing big time, I suspect that we will see Hansen and Tuft leading the race soon.

 

[Eclipse]

Looks like a lot of the bunch is coming back together again at the start of the Stelvio.

 

[melkemugg]

is this whats left of the peloton?

 

[JetSet]

Tennis over....

 

[Arnout]

Val M paid for the finish.

I get that, but if it really is too dangerous to descent I rather have them finish on the Stelvio than having a complete cancellation, which won't help Val Martello anyway.

[jsem94]

All these skinny climbers with no subcutaneous fat are going to suffer...

My feed just went from 115 KM to go to 88.3 KM. WTF

That means they went from delayed to live

88 is correct.

 

[Arnout]

The descent of the Gavia wasn't problematic though. A bit cold but I don't get all the complaints from riders and DSs as the riders actually in the race seem to be doing ok mostly.

I mean, garbage people have to go out and collect garbage in the rain and in the snow too, so all these complaints about things being inhumane are a bit puzzling to me.

Nothings easing up, its going to be live horror show on Stelvio. Cant make out gaps at present. looks insanely cold.

You're live now, don't fret it. Must have been delayed from earlier.
