Remco's engine works very well, he just needs to drop some load.

Also only got better between February and May.Vincenzo Nibali in 2016 win Tour of Oman + Giro d'italia
Nowhere in Sanremo, Trentino and Liège. The MTF was cancelled in Tirreno, so difficult to gauge his form there.Also only got better between February and May.
Won UAE Tour after being 2nd on Jabel Hafeet with a high level. Similar to Rogla in 2019. There is exactly 3 months until the queen stage to Tre Cime.

I like that "forumite" wordSo there seems to be a simple formula for success at the Giro.
Win something worthless in Jan/Feb.
Tone it down, cool off for 2 months (so forumites can flog a dead horse about the rider’s chances in the Giro).
Russian roulette at the Giro.
Reminded me of Itzulia last year. Struggling only on the very steep sections. Precisely what a few kgs xtra would do. Then Vuelta he crushes all GCers on that very steep finish (stage 8 or 9?).
Then again I hear todays climb was a record. If so that would put Remco’s perf with xtra kgs in a different perspective.
Do you really believe Remco is 3kg plus too heavy? I mean Giro is in 3 months and losing 3kg in that time seems a lot without a stress on the body.
In San Juan he said he was 2-3kg above his target weight, so I doubt it's 3kg now.Do you really believe Remco is 3kg plus too heavy? I mean Giro is in 3 months and losing 3kg in that time seems a lot without a stress on the body.

Well I was looking for Omloop climbing timese this morning, and guess who has the shared Strava record on the Muur van Geraardsbergen?
Not bad for 85%. What was Yates and Bilbao percentage? since we have to judge everything by percentage
Since he already has Giro in the bag, maybe he won't show up, so he can focus on le Tour and win both without having started yetRemco has the Giro in the bag, he just has to show up.
500 gram a week weight loss is upper limit for healthy weight loss. So not unrealistic nor detrimental.Do you really believe Remco is 3kg plus too heavy? I mean Giro is in 3 months and losing 3kg in that time seems a lot without a stress on the body.
…Contador 7.1 for 20 on Verbier for comparison.
Any comparison other than THAT one, please.
The sun rose in the east.Remco allegedly did 6.8 W/KG for 26 minutes in 38 degree heat in February? Contador 7.1 for 20 on Verbier for comparison.
Yates also at an insane level.
