TheoG Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 It was worth it, got the stage win. Primoz owe Sep Kuss big time, hope he can deliver in the TT. Luckily Pogacar is not there to spoil the party :-).
Gen Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 It was worth it, got the stage win. Primoz owe Sep Kuss big time, hope he can deliver in the TT. Luckily Pogacar is not there to spoil the party :-).Sep's job to look after him.
TheoG Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 Sep's job to look after him. True, I just think there is a distinct possibility that Sep could have taken the stage, but as you say his job is his job.
Chris_ Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 Week 3 All eyes on the Slovenian and the 'race of truth'. Tomorrow will be tense. I love this little sting in the tail. Its going to be a long 2kms if someone forgets to pace properly.
J Wakefield Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 Pic: Cor VosGot to love the way he rides lately
ikerarri Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 I love this little sting in the tail. Its going to be a long 2kms if someone forgets to pace properly.Sure! And beware Ézaro is short but ... very steep! Only 1,8km but sure we will see some riders put a foot on tarmac. Yes, you read it well. 29%.
TheoG Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 Sure! And beware Ézaro is short but ... very steep! Only 1,8km but sure we will see some riders put a foot on tarmac. Yes, you read it well. 29%. That is a nasty little climb indeed, going to make it very interesting.

Jewbacca Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 For the capies, that is more than twice the elevation of chappies in 1/3rd the distance
Vetplant Posted November 2, 2020 Author Posted November 2, 2020 For the capies, that is more than twice the elevation of chappies in 1/3rd the distance And for the Pretoria peeps: 2.25x the length of Tom Jenkins1.6x the gradient=EINA!
Tim Brink Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 For the capies, that is more than twice the elevation of chappies in 1/3rd the distanceSuikerbossie the way the August tackles it, IE the 'steep' way, rises 126m in 1.86km... this thing 263m in the same distance. Ow.
Vetplant Posted November 2, 2020 Author Posted November 2, 2020 Week 3 All eyes on the Slovenian and the 'race of truth'. Tomorrow will be tense. I have think Roggas is taking the stage tomorrow. Allot of introspection must have happened personally and collectively as a Team following the Amazing Pogacar performance on Stage 20 of the TDF. He has a personal score to settle. (and a certain whipper-snapper isn't racing, so it makes it a little bit easier)
Jewbacca Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 Suikerbossie the way the August tackles it, IE the 'steep' way, rises 126m in 1.86km... this thing 263m in the same distance. Ow.Ha! Exactly! And at the end of full gas ITT. The GC contenders have had to deal with some serious ITTs this year. I like it
Frosty Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 And for the Vaalies, the climb from the car park, at the reserve, is 177m in 2.19Km. At least Daryl has the KOM.
The Ghost Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 I have think Roggas is taking the stage tomorrow. It’s going to be interesting for sure.Roglic seems to be struggling when things get steeper than about 15%, in his favour is the long flat that he can TT on better than outright climbers.
