  1. If the Bees put on the pressure for GT he won’t have too much guys to help calm the waters, also Bahrain will also try a few tricks I think, if you have a good strong squad, they all go out before the GC guys in the TT, and the specialist in the team will with the SD will be gathering lots of data to mill over. That TT is going to flip the switch for who ever uses it to its full advantage! So you kinda do use those riders to help figure out how the route is and plan accordingly. The mountains will always be the gap maker in GC, the top 20 will be in for a shake up for sure. I’m loving this Giro, let’s hope the Tour has the same flavour! Pog btw is recovering well, I’m sure he will be ready in time, and will Remco I didn’t have Covid be at the Tour now? Yeah lots to think about for the teams ahead of the last week.
  2. Super brave to hit it with 38! 🫣
  3. A very good day out, but I hope the organisers take notes from all your input!…you gotta have all the Belguim elements in there for sure! I have fond memories of been in Belguim and nothing beats Beer and Frites! And a warm waffle from a street vendor when your fingers are going to fall off! I think a vote needs to be put forward: Belguim beers and BrAAi afterwards without fail, add it to the entry and get the Belguim Embassy involved. They can assist I’m sure. You don’t ask, you don’t get!😎💪🏻👍🏻
  4. … yeah you right, lots of permutations, but I did see you use the word “chicken” which would of course….favours the Pora! 😂😂😂. I personally think this year’s edition will have a strong impact from who has a gold key players in the team, If you got extra troops in the battle and they assist, you can expose your opponents even if they don’t want to be. So far it’s been a waiting game, but this is when some teams play it safe thinking they got the race under control, last year Ineos made some bad decisions, so I don’t know if they’ve learnt from it? 🤔 This is most definitely the chance for GT to get a podium in the Giro… His team mate will be back next year with a rocket launcher to regain his misfortune.
  5. I reckon the Pora has a plan… and they’ve chosen a stage to use there numbers… 🤔 His got an incredible opportunity this year!
  6. Great to have new events up for discussion, this is what Bikehub is about, thanks to all the good okes who chipped in with your feedback! 👍🏻😎😎
  7. you got it right! What a stage, love that last 5kms! This Giro is so full of surprises!
  8. Sounds like the deal is done… some lovely new models, checkout all the offering they were at Sea Otter Expo. Even F. Moser have a hybrid model.👍🏻
  9. … don’t go to the dark side! Stay in human power. Plus must new motor laws have them capped at 25kph. So most are a tad over rated me thinks…🤔
  10. Beautiful machinery! Those floors are way too clean, that gives me notion you have zero rug rats! 🤭🤭🤭 Several of us on here also could have bought two of those at some stage! Many can back me up on that here! 🤪💪🏻
  11. The Tour will have all that… the first week is very classic! We are only a few weeks away.👍🏻
  12. Sounds like need to check it out next year….And the Belguim ex pro’s?
  13. Yeah did a deal recently with TVS, super service and very knowledgeable! Thomas for Major! 😃
  14. Yeah today they all had a gentleman’s agreement from what I could read between the lines from GT comments. I actually thought the opposite, I was actually thinking that one team might jump at this short opportunity to gain some traction into the GC. So all the doing is aiming for one showdown which is going to blow up that GC. The top ten we have now we radically change by next week. I can’t see the Norwegian remaining in the fight, and a few others will fall away. Pity today wasn’t long enough for a shake up… but at least we know France will slow down on importing Columbian coffee! 🤣🤣🤣 Aaah Pinot, so close. Gotta love the Giro. 👍🏻👀
  15. I think the race has played second fiddle to TDF but it’s an extremely taxing tour none the less. I disagree with you, I think this year has brought out a very open event, with challenges unimaginable! I mean look at todays stage, when was the last Time a stage of the Giro shared the same finish as TDF? The sport is also going through a generation shift so of course that comes from a new school of radio racing which never was a factor back in the day. Nice to see riders that work hard day on to stay Pro and finally get a win! The German the other day was a great example. Anyways, there is so much action ahead, this is close, when last did you see a Grand Tour with the first 3 in such close proximity?….🤔
  16. I expect a full race report.. and Belguim Beer reviews! 🤪
  17. GC guys decided to all hold off for a real mountain next week!🫣🤪
  18. Fair enough… it’s all to play for the GC guys. I wonder which rider will attack first?
  19. 💯 percent, with all that in the bag, by I feel his going to be tested with his team. It episode be awesome to see him do well and his flying right now! Been a whole his touched this kind of form! Plus we gotta have an oldie show them how it’s done! 👍🏻
  20. Yeah… just unclipping your master link! 🤭But yes, start was dry for 13 minutes. 👍🏻
  21. I just think his support structure will be exposed…🤔 Today will be crazy for sure! 👍🏻
  22. You failed to include… and raining! 😂😂😂
  23. So Mads point jersey Dane has withdrawn! 😞 so Milan now has a healthy gap, if he stays in the race he will no doubt secure the jersey! Today… Thomas waves the pink jersey good bye* I can’t see him hanging on, might see the Bees 🐝 swarm him! 😂😂😂 * based upon my own observations and opinion thus far.
  24. I had a feeling this was going to happen, it’s getting dangerous and no one wants fans getting hurt just see the race pass through your village! This years race is just marred by down pours that gave even forced F1 to cancel race!
