Nieve is racing terribly.  Hoping for us to get in some break from now then.

Terrible stuff.. Verona going in breaks is good or not? I dont know but Contador is the one to miss out. Sigh

Better stuff now, finally. Close fight for overall win, Contador needs some +5 steaks tho.

One of my eyes its crying, the other is smiling. Barguil lost a lot of time because the roads then the puncture, very bad. In the other side, Coquard just keep going and going.  |

Annoyed that my team refuses to enter the breakaway ever, but at least Brambilla and Chaves are within shooting distance of a top 20.

DON'T EVEN DARE TO COMPLAIN. IT'S ALREADY UNREAL ENOUGH.
Ciolek continues his consistency. Cool to see him taking the point jersey for a stage but the target has to be to win it. A stage win on the road would be cool as well. Still the amount of top five stage results by him is great and also cool to see us joining the break finally.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Boring stages for us. Though I suppose König just narrowly missed out on win in Stage 10 - keep going guys!

just catching up to the Giro and stage 9 absolutely kills me. Kiserlovski being over a minute behind Valls and both 6 minutes behind of were they should be assuming because Domagalski is in the breakaway.
damn

EXACTLY! 5 stage wins with no lead-out whatsoever, with them stats, with 3 teammates with all 55 stats, pretty much, is crazy! In my PCM days I am sure I have never seen a team over-perform so much as jaxika's team has done this season (and we are only half way through the season). Taking nothing away from the planning, of course.
Speaking of OP: Froome looking great in pink - thanks Bikex.  We lose the pink but I am confident we can get it back, especially with the TT to come, however, after that I am foreboding! Polka dots has to be a real goal now.
Good 1st win for the WC amidst all that. |

3 Bunzl guys in the top 17 on GC. I can quite simply not understand.
And we finally got the white jersey!! It will go horribly wrong in the final week but at least Adam has worn it now.

*does the same but realises it's because I'm not there*
Like, at least you good people of tehGiro have something to complain about 
24/02/21 - kandesbunzler said “I don't drink famous people."
15/08/22 - SotD said "Your [jandal's] humour is overrated"
11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant."

5th, 2nd, 2nd, 5th for stages 9-12.
Not bad at all especially Julien Simon
Chevrier up to 2nd in Young Riders .
Bardet in GC 5th but hasn't had his bad day(s) yet, only hope is they are on flattish stages. He needs some time in the bank before the stage 15 TT, only hope is his hills stat compensates for his rubbish TT stat.
I could only be happier if my steal attempt on Coquard was successful .

Stage 13 sees Bardet looked after by the in form Chevrier after a crash to keep his 5th place in GC, sorry to see other riders not so lucky.
Still exciting at the top with only 32 seconds covering the first 3.
Thanks for the incredible pace Bikex .

Awesome pace again
So how many points does Stuyven get for the super combativité award?
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

I really dont understand how Contador is doing so significantly worse despite having been upgraded to MT82. I literally could have paid the research money to buy some Potion of Youths for Ruben Plaza and it would have made more sense at this point.
