Stage 20: Saturday May 26th, Caldes/Val di Sole - Passo dello Stelvio 219km

[vcampbell]

Oh my... Zaugg, that's steep

 

[seldon71]

"Tarmac" looks really nasty where Zaugg is now... Will it really be for flat tires to get excitement???

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Tiralonga falls uphill

 

[Danilot]

Looks like 25-30 riders will reach the summit of the Mortirolo together. Saying I'm disappointed is an understatement.

(now prove me wrong, riders!)

 

[spalco]

How can you crash while going this slow?

 

[meat puppet]

Must say that as a climb this is even more spectacular that the Zoncolan. The narrow old concrete road really runs the point home, even if the Zoncolan might be harder.

 

[Metal earth]

Tiralongo pulling a Menchov!

 

[The Sheep]

ouch

.........

 

[vcampbell]

Fall on "uphill", just like Menchov in the good old days

 

[superconfex]

tira sufts the road

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

The part Zaugg is on now is absolutely epic

 

[Pharazon]

tiralongo does a half voight / half menchov

 

[DominicDecoco]

Tiralonga falls uphill

Yes, downhill...

Nasty crash.

 

[Rocksteady]

Tira v. Tarmac

And the winner is???

 

[Parrulo]

the giro finally delivering bit

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

It was a slight downhill where Tiralongo fell.

 

[spalco]

The road doesn't look that bad to me, it's very narrow, but the surface is ok, no potholes or anything.

 

[vcampbell]

Hesjedal! Nicely done.

 

[Parrulo]

basso looks to be suffering a lot

 

[Moviefan1203]

Come on Ryder!!!!!

 

[EddyW.]

people should get orturted for this. commercials on the mortirolo and nelissen whining before people complaining about commercials should watch sporza I wish I goddamn could!

No you wouldn't want to watch Sporza. Tour of Belgium is on now.

 

[Dekker_Tifosi]

Lol cars coming to a halt

 

[Moose McKnuckles]

Ok, we now have running. A cross race has broken out.

 

[hatcher]

Again, how about it was a half-arsed effort and not a real, sustained attack?

With 60k to go, the tactic was half-arsed.

I'm glad he tried it, but it was pointless.

 

[The Sheep]

cars breaking down
