Vetplant Posted May 11, 2021 Share More importantly, what does he think of the stage today? Sags to podium? Nizzolo or Sagan. Also,..... it is pouring so that will make things fun[emoji23]What does your son think for today? Seems to be the first real stage to make a move. Steep Cat 2 finish, 4km @ 9.9% after a steadily climbing day, with a 4km run to the line My thinking is either:-Evenepoel wins it from a climbing group that goes on the final climbor-Strong Breakaway group takes the Win... maybe Thomas De Gendt shows his magic.

Vetplant Posted May 11, 2021 Share Wet wet wet at the start and at the finish. Riders are in the Neutralized Zone. Start will be frantic with everyone trying to go in the break.(We might not be able to see it, rain is spoiling the transmission of the video feeds.)

Vetplant Posted May 11, 2021 Share Two Belgians are up the road, but De Gendt isn't one of them. Quintin Hermans and Victor Campenaerts have 19s on the peloton after 14km. (No Video feed, just going off what the Live Tracking Website is telling us.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vetplant Posted May 11, 2021 Share Video Feed has settled-down, you guys can tune in. The fight is still on to join the two Belgiums up the road, 20s ahead after about 20km. 100Tours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_ Posted May 11, 2021 Share ..-Strong Breakaway group takes the Win... maybe Thomas De Gendt shows his magic. I'm going with this one. Isn't it too early to take GC jersey? And then the team will blow up defending and pacing and leading for the (almost) full tour? Or is that not really a thing anymore Vetplant and FootballingCyclist 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lechatnoir Posted May 11, 2021 Share Didn't that guy win it last year and not wear the pink shirt on a single stage didn't he wear it on the last stage's ITT? Edit of course he didn't...

Long Wheel Base Posted May 11, 2021 Share What's weird is Bennett though.. He isn't going to win as much at another team.. This is generally what happens when sprinters leave DQS... Okay I get he want to earn as much as he can while he can but its a bit odd IMO.[emoji2368]I get the impression Bennet doesn't get on well with other people. He has been loud mouth before and not much has happened but when your boss is an even bigger loud mouth you will never last. Gen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
