Vittoria Rubino Pro. Make sure they’re Pro, not just Rubino, it’s the Pro that’s got a folding Kevlar bead

Entertaining opening stage to the Giro: not just another TT.

And not the predicted/expected 'Pogacar attacks on the final climb and takes the Pink jersey on day 1'

Could be more fun and games today too. A couple of cat 3 and a cat 1 to finish of the day.

Pogacar racing instinct is nuts. Will take any opportunity he can to have a go.

That’s the Giro over 👀 G had a bit of a subpar performance.

I’d like to think the conditions changed or something, but then Pog pogged all over the gaff

When pressed by the reporter, who suggested his teammate’s rides were great but his wasn’t, Thomas coldly retorted, “Thanks.” 😂

Harsh by the reporter. Prati di Tivo today: I remember somebody called Teddy Poggachar winning easily against G and Bernal et al in Tirreno Adriatico a few years ago.

All neutralised at the Dauphine after a big crash in shitty conditions :/ Pogi going to win the TdF by virtue of being last man standing.

Ouch. Cav in trouble on the first climb of the first TdF Stage. :-( Seems to be stomach related. He's thrown up a few times.

Loved that, pleased for Bardet and one heck of a way to announce yourself in your first tour, wow.

Terrible luck for poor Cav- extend a year to try to get that one stage, then catch a lurgy right at the start of a tough first week.
Nightmare.
I was so pleased for Bardet, what a nail biter of end. You could see them getting reeled in and i was shouting at them on the telly to stop looking back and just stick the hammer down as best they could!

I bet they were riding through a black tunnel at the end.

Was not aware that Evenopoel was such a bad descender

Was not aware that Evenopoel was such a bad descender Was he always? Or was it a bit of being extra careful since his crash? It seemed kinda ok live, just drifting off a bit on the top half and pulling it back with power on the bottom half. Vingegaard must have been the slowest descender of the top finishers in that final leg. Not that I think he's poor either.

Post by elstoof on Jul 3, 2024 6:28:31 GMT
Never really seen him race as this is his first Tour so I guess, not much descending in the classics. He didn’t crash too badly in the big one, got onto the grass before hitting the deck. Vingegaard might be more affected by that one
