Yeah, I had been waiting for this stage since it was announced and I'm probably not watching this at this point lol.

I took the day off work for this stage. Oh well, new wheels have arrived so I can spend it building my bike with it on in the background.

Here is what the Giau looked like when I went in 2019: Coldest I’ve ever been.

I feel like removing two climbs and leaving a huge descent to the finish is just going to encourage massive risk-taking? The revised profile doesn't actually look that bad https://twitter.com/VeloViewer/status/1396745176421486595?s=20

No, the stage is too short and easy for real attacks now, especially with a descent finish. I actually think the break might win today lol I actually would have preferred they cancel the stage like 2013 instead of run a neutered one. Feels Villeneuve fucked around with this message at 09:59 on May 24, 2021 |

There was talk of them taking GC times at the top, not sure if that’s still happening.

Race organiser seemed pretty mad in that interview. Clear he wanted them to race the whole stage but felt they had to make a change to avoid another protest.

Lotto down to 2 riders. They should just become mercenaries and sell themselves as domestiques for bike exchange or Astana

This was like the only proper GT mountain stage this year too, 200km, climbing from the start, descent finish. Why can't this happen to one of those poo poo rear end 120km TDF stages.

In case you're actually not watching, I have to inform you that there haven't been any live pictures ("DUE TO EXTREME WEATHER CONDITIONS") in like 30 minutes. Real "you can't fire me, I quit" type situation here

Almeida is justified in being furious imo. He came in as supposed co-leader and they chucked that out the window immediately and made him tank his race. He'd have been ahead of Remco already if they'd let him ride.

You roll the dice to see if you can win the overall vs have a firm place in like 7th. I'd take that decision every time - Almeida was 4 minutes down on Remco after 4 stages.
