Spez only three min down with a day to go though-surely all to play for? Lexx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have gone from 8th on GC to virtual 2nd today at present and 4 stage wins until yesterday stage. Thats all in every day and it’s never over until they finish on Sunday OVERDRIVE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a human factor. Bad nutrition, prep issue. Has nothing to do with luck. go to deep one day pay for it the next Yyyy and ChrisF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcg Posted March 25, 2023 Share The last stage is not the easiest around with two hectic climbs. BUT to pull back more than 3min over 80km is tough as nails, unless there's puncture or mechanicals in play. All possible, but .... Weather tomorrow: dry, coolish and windy. Residual mud and puddles around for sure. So essentially anything possible OVERDRIVE and ChrisF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's a good thing when the race are still wide open like this. Last day is a free for all. J Wakefield 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what racing is all about. For us if you honest you don’t want a run away for 8 day. You want it to go to the wire with your supporting team to be on top.

They will probably match Speed factory and ride away from them all. Who knows. Should be a cracker with a stage looking proper hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrcg Posted March 25, 2023 Share Spez finishes. Think they have a 4min lead over SRAM. SCR still more than 9min behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
