Zoncolan’s looking miserable. Lovely.

thewarn · 2021-05-22T13:21:43.094Z

Nice descent this

Seemingly every place the giro goes is ‘a forgotten corner of italy’

meths · 2021-05-22T13:23:31.985Z

Cliche chat incoming but, I just don’t understand how there aren’t more crashes where they go flying over the edge of a cliff.

The other day he was banging on about ‘how remote it is here….about an hour outside of Rome’

thewarn · 2021-05-22T13:25:30.512Z

Venice… not even one of the 10 biggest cities in italy

thewarn · 2021-05-22T13:26:29.636Z

Pretty much guarantee I would.

Or at least one of those corners when they go up someone’s drive by accident.

Voeckler bunny hop

Astana/bernal got a decent gap on the way down. Gonna be a lot of work for the other teams before the zoncolan. Not ideal.

meths · 2021-05-22T13:36:34.770Z

Have Astana won anything in a few years? Always seem to be doing something during a race but ending up with nothing.

thewarn · 2021-05-22T13:39:42.598Z

Fuglsang won loads a couple of years back

harru · 2021-05-22T13:43:04.562Z

Remember luis Leon Sanchez winning a couple of stages because Sean always calls him Lois lane

Everyone in the breakaway looks absolutely fucked.

And why have Trek got two people in there trying to win it? Or are they just trying to fuck everyone in there?

harru · 2021-05-22T14:16:57.182Z

How is affini even supposed to get to the finish line now after burying himself for 4 hours straight?

meths · 2021-05-22T14:20:14.746Z

I don’t even understand how steep 26% is.

In fact I’ve just looked up what I believe is the steepest I’ve been on which is only 14%. That cannot be right. EDIT turns out it wasn’t right. The steepest I’ve been on is 26%. And it’s grim. As you were, pro cyclists.

Tuna · 2021-05-22T14:26:53.398Z

Pulled back nearly a minute in 2km, suddenly feeling less confident in the break
