SwissVan Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 They do 5-6 hour rides 6 days a week for many months.And optimal nutrition and rest (no Woolworths chewy sweets and Lindt choccies)That's how they keep that engine purring so steadily. I'm not gonna be cynicalJust a fanI'll leave queries and suspicions to the UCI But you already gave a somewhat cynical reply to ScottC-M claiming its all sweet n cosy cynical emoticon look
tombeej Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Some 16 riders were given penalties for holding onto cars yesterday, including Sky's Leopold Konig and Jurgen Van Den Broeck.
Gen Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Nah. Quiet dayAaah.. no wind? I'll be home soon.. and will 'sit gat, bene rus' and watch the rest of the stage.. this is after all the Giro, something is bound to happen.
'Dale Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 The peloton is strung out in one long line as they bring the gap to the escapees down a little bit further. With 74km to go the gap is at 2:16 as we close in on the first intermediate sprint.
'Dale Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 The gap continues to tick down slowly, it has now dipped down to 1:43 and it looks like we're going to get a sprint finish today but there's still plenty of stage to go and this Giro has proved that anything can happen.
'Dale Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Giant-Alpecin have amassed on the front of the peloton with Tinkoff-Saxo right behind them. There are some signs of echlelons forming but nothing too major for now.
'Dale Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 The peloton are currently riding alongside the Fiume Adda and they've brought the gap down to just over a minute with 47km to go. At about 8km to go the riders will pass into Switzerland. We hope they've brought their passports.
'Dale Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 breakaway riders shake hands, they know that there day is done. Not long before their back into the peloton.
'Dale Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 The peloton is once again strung out under the efforts of BMC as Patrick Gretsch goes off the front with Adam Hansen.
'Dale Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 Hansen now has 18 seconds on the chasers as Gretsch dropped Atapuma on the descent.
