Some lead out from Cavs boy there. Shit/boring stage but good to see the missile back on the top step and hope he’s got/keeping some juice left to beat that tdf stage record! Crowds have been fantastic in Hungary , on to Mount Etna next
Haha the crabs you get on the roads over here ruining your Sunday morning blat are a different breed, granted but I’ll take any sport on two wheels tbh (peds included before anyone starts on that as well).
I love the way they tow someone round 200k of roads just to try and get them “in the right place at the right time”. Imagine if that was moto gp and pol had to tow Marc round for the final push at glory. Would he fk.
A very different beast, it mostly relies on teamwork as you know for your sprinter to be close enough to the front to cross the line, explosive stuff. MotoGP riders biggest competition sometimes is his teammate. I do like the heroic solo breakaway though over the final sprint.
Only 4 teams left in the vuelta with no covid withdrawals! Simon Yates the latest to pull out “very poorly” today. Comms on Eurosport blaming the crowds for not following covid protocols etc…
