Lol as if I don’t understand why he doesn’t take a turn. That’s not the point. I watch cycling for entertainment. There’s a reason why people say how good it is to watch cycling in this era with the likes of Pogacar, WVA, MVDP, Pidcock and Remco. All of them would have taken turns even when they are in the lead, because they aren’t potatoes. This isn’t a GT, this is a 1 week WT stage race, everyone will forget who won this in a couple of years because it’s not important. We watch this for entertainment, and Roglic is boring
There's no drama if all characters are the same.

I have to admit that if there's someone who can literally wheelsuck like a boss, and even make it look cool it's Roglic this week:D

and this comes from someone who cares little about him and think he's boring
Learn how cycling works......when the Race Leader is bein attacked he doesn't need to work with the guy trying to beat him.

Roglic sometimes is boring and sometimes is very entertaining.

Pidcock, MvdP and Van Aert are no GC riders. 3 of them gave a monument away last year because they refused to work together. Pogacar and MvdP literally let a group come back in RVV last year.

Also, Pog never really had any situation like this, apart from maybe the 2020 Tour stage when they were chasing Hirschi and Roglic did most of the work.

You sure you didn't ask for Roglic to be AI generated? Cause he be suckin' on them wheels like a pacifier.
All that does is show how little you know about cycling. Roglic has the jersey, Recmo wants it, well that means he's the one that has to do the work!

Evenepoel fans should at least be honest, i.e. the whole point of Remco's theatrics was an attempt to goad Rog into committing a tactical mistake.

It's just mind-games. No, Rog isn't 'boring' because he didn't work with Evenepoel today. In fact had he done so, he would have been pretty heavily criticized for such an obvious error.

Roll on tomorrow for more of the same.

Unfortunately it’s now the early-er start for us - as I think Europe has their time change tonight?
 
Goes to show how the best races are always when you get 2 riders very close to each other on time but different in approach. Classic cycling has always been a man o mano battle.. And Roglic and Evenepol are as different in temprement as any 2 riders can be but so close on ability. They even look the same on a bike..Hoping for a wonderful Giro

Tomorrow I am going for a Ciccone win. He will benefit from the 2 leaders only having eyes for each other
