Even better news for SA cycling is that Ashleigh had a great win today in the queen stage of the Giro d'Italia Donne.

Mntboy Posted July 10, 2021 Share Wonderful win for Mollema. So happy to see Meintjes getting a top ten finish. It's been a good day's bike racing! Vetplant and Underachiever 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vetplant Posted July 10, 2021 Share Maincheese goes from 16th to 14th on GC. Top 12 isn't too far off now, it is close enough for him to gain the time by riding well. Getting to Top 10 however is a stretch, it is going to require some misfortune for someone else. If he can stay upright, he might just sneak in at the end.

Prudhomme suggested that it leads to more exciting racing as with a summit finalè it becomes something like a 3 km drag race (something like that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be interesting to see if EF and JV come and assist UAE to keep their riders on the podium for the time being. 2nd is a jinxed position.

It was great to see Louis initiate a move (attack would be to strong a word), for someone who does not have the massive power required to “attack”, Brian Smith one of the Eurosport commentary team who was general manager at MTN Qhubeka when Louis was riding for them made this comment about Louis power.... Top 20 in this years TDF, not to be sneezed at and a lot better than any other saffas ???? , excluding Ashleigh Moolman of course Edited July 11, 2021 by SwissVan Sid the Sloth, Underachiever, dsw and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
