Mountain Bru Posted July 3, 2021 Posted July 3, 2021 Just now, Vetplant said: Roglic going to climb in the car soon? Looks like it. At this rate, the time cut is also a concern.

'Dale Posted July 3, 2021 Posted July 3, 2021 With the race pace at this stage, Primož Roglič cannot recover well enough with his extensive abrasions, especially on the boom-boom, a hardworking contact point What a class act, always stoic and humble. kosmonooit, Scary Rider and NickGM 3

Maybe they should let Tim DeClercq and Tony Martin jump in a car and go ahead so they can pull the truck out the way? Looks like a big problem though FootballingCyclist and Chris_ 2
Mountain Bru Posted July 3, 2021 Posted July 3, 2021 WVA attacks.... Drops everyone like they're under 7s. I wonder if he's just trying to get into yellow, or if in his heart he has GC ambitions.
Chris_ Posted July 3, 2021 Posted July 3, 2021 This is the most work Pog has done all tour. He's looking lonely. And (surely) frustrated.
FootballingCyclist Posted July 3, 2021 Posted July 3, 2021 Going to have to add alu bottle cages and maybe an alu stem to get the bike to UCI legal weight. Mountain Bru 1

Mountain Bru Posted July 3, 2021 Posted July 3, 2021 UAE not being able to control the bunch (and Alpecin in yellow not even trying) actually makes the race more exciting. If Ineos were in the lead, they would just put their train on the front and we wouldn't get to watch every man and their dog having a crack at getting away and then being brought back. This kind of racing must be brutal for the riders, but it's great to watch Chris_ and FootballingCyclist 2
FootballingCyclist Posted July 3, 2021 Posted July 3, 2021 There it is. Perhaps maybe a lower spec like 105 cassette and chain combo to add weight. DieselnDust 1

Bonus Posted July 3, 2021 Posted July 3, 2021 I can see what the weather conditions are but I haven't heard a temperature mentioned yet.
Jewbacca Posted July 3, 2021 Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) Valverde in the front group....... I wouldn't put it past him to take the win today.... No.... evidently the team have other ideas! Kuss or Quintana? Edited July 3, 2021 by Jewbacca Answered my question by dropping out the group
