Tirreno - Adriatico 2022 (7.03-13.03)

[Salvarani]

These stage races get kind of boring. It's Roglic or Pogacar winning every single time from February to October.

They are both legends and really enjoy watching the way they race. Not afraid of anything. What a rivalry, with huge respect for each other.

 

[samhocking]

Pog was getting cold, he needed to warm up a bit haha!

 

[VayaVayaVaya]

Unless Roglic is in the race, always seems like it’s over before it starts. No one even trying to stay with him or track him down. Would be nice to at least see an attempt.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Can we just permanently ban all Slovenians from professional races? There is absolutely no point in stage race GCs right now.

I'm only half-joking.

 

[Mayomaniac]

At least Landismo isn't dead!

 

[Netserk]

A shame he was denied yesterday. Only two stage wins, so he better win several classics to get back on track.

 

[JosefK]

Pogacar an inspiration. Grimacing in pain, clearly struggling on the bike, he forges on.

 

[Tim Cahill]

"Tadej Pogacar, Mr. 100%!"

Id've gone with 60 Carlton but I see your point

The way they race is nice to watch because they take responsibility and animate the races. But they are way too much above the rest to be really challenged.

 

[Escarabajo]

So waht's up with Vingo? what was he complaining about? why is he looking back so much? just push forward and be done with it.

Right now they are! It is probably not gonna last forever.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

This is Grand Bornand levels of ridiculous.

 

[Red Rick]

Over a minute on an 18 minute climb

 

[Netserk]

Spoiler

I gotta say, I by far prefer Pogi smashing it full gas over Rogla holding back and waiting for the last 200 m.

 

[Velolover2]

Pog has to be careful downhill. A narrow twisty descent is risky for the rest of the season.

 

[Fantastico]

I wasn't implying that.

 

[Salvarani]

Over a minute on an 18 minute climb

It is not like the others have went full gas. They slowed down a bit once he was gone. Racing for second place.

 

[wheresmybrakes]

Over a minute on an 18 minute climb

He gained that in the first 3 minutes

 

[Salvarani]

I wasn't implying that.

Didnt say you were. It was just my response.

 

[Escarabajo]

So Mas will pass Porte on GC without taking a pull? LOL.

 

[Rollthedice]

Over a minute on an 18 minute climb

He's taking it easy, could have been half an hour.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

Over a minute on an 18 minute climb

He would beat peak Pantani on this climb of all climbs too.

 

[DoYouEvenRideBruh]

Well, the time he gains is significantly inflated by the fact that no one behind is seriously trying to catch him.

 

[Eclipse]

It is not like the others have went full gas. They slowed down a bit once he was gone. Racing for second place.

Yeah, very stop start - the others are genuinely at risk of being caught they are messing around and not taking pulls/

So Mas will pass Porte on GC without taking a pull? LOL.

King of the wheelsuckers is gonna wheelsuck

No.
