He could have a great season if he finds his best form.
The remora does not swim soloIn other news Antonio got married.
I think Roglic is riding the Tour, not the Giro.He will sing them to Roglic during the trophy presentation.
According to La Gazzetta they already gave him a TT bike to train at home, Bahrain only gave him one shortly before the Giro.The threat to Rohan Dennis

He was one Mortiyolo descent attack from winning the damn Giro, and now he's getting better rain breaks?
I think that's a pretty bike.Also from Gazzetta, Slongo says they'll work on increasing workloads, greater care of explosiveness and maximum strength that, physiologically, are lost a little bit. Work in the gym will also increase throughout the year.
Nibali didn't use disc brakes on his road bike not because he didn't like them, but because of weight issues. In this sense Trek found high performance solutions that convinced him.
"With the way I ride my bike maybe it becomes a bit more 'dangerous' - smiles Nibali - in the sense that the disc brake takes you even more to the limit. But, especially in the wet, it can help you a lot. "
Both Lago Serru and Courmayeur were tactically bad. And before the Carapazbestgetoveritcrew gets onto this, yeah he was the best those 2 days, but throwing away 50s to Majka who got rofldropped every other mountain stage means it was incredibly tactical. Courmayeur was just adding insult to injury and I don't know what Nibali was doing there.He tends to crash on wet descents (Rio, Angliru stage, Giro 2013, Firenze) so I think Mortirolo was a wise decision. Looking back I think he lost the Giro on Lago Serru, a combination of finding himself in the wrong place with the wrong companion on a not-so-good day.
