We had to wait a very long time at this Giro to see a great cycling day, a day to remember and to be treated right. a giant cyclist named Cousin Roglic, always affected by bad luck; due to falls, breakdowns, and a situation that few runners can handle. It’s very hard to lose a Tour in 2020 where you’ve won a stage from Paris.
Roglic will take to the streets of Rome in pink this Sunday after being convicted in the last-time court As boring as it was fantastic, the Giro was his last attempt at 40 seconds off Geraint Thomas, knocking him down and taking the lead by just 14 seconds, but enough to add the Italian round to a record. Happy so far for three valuable victories in the Vuelta.
You’ll never know what would have happened if Covid didn’t break it down Remco Evenepoel and also what if Roglic hadn’t fallen last week and had to run to the Dolomites suffering from the blows of the accident? Thomas ran as if he knew how to do it. Like Cadel Evans, he’s a defensive cyclist. Obviously they both won a Tour, but notThey have never had an offensive runner as much as Roglic in their win.although he could barely attack in this Giro, probably after his fall and due to a blindfolded route.
gravel covered
And if he didn’t attack, because I knew I had to give my all in one last try; Wild, inhumane with sections of concrete he decided to climb with a group formed for gravel bikes (the chainring and sprocket), Thomas chose a traditional, lightweight bike where the figures often brave high mountain days.
It was c Roglic againThat’s how her traditional bad luck burying her. When Thomas began to give up, when a victory or defeat was known to be within seconds, the chain fell. Seeing is believing. But despite that, he will win the Giro this Sunday.
previous misfortunes
For once he smashed the sinister chasing that had knocked him down when he fought for victory on the Tour with Evenepoel last year, or that figuratively hammered him into the head as he began to surrender. To Richard Carapaz after taking a hit halfway through the 2019 Italian tour. And that list of misfortunes gets longer if one remembers the scenarios in the one-week races, the setbacks that prevented him from enjoying an even greater record.
However, once and for all, encouraged by hundreds of Slovenes just five kilometers from the stage of the time trial, he overcame hurdles and even a breakdown that nearly allowed Thomas to save overall first place.
Opportunity missed on tour
Roglic will definitely never win the Tour because he lost the opportunity to his compatriot. Tadej Pogacar three years agobecause disaster doomed him to retirement due to accidents in 2021 and 2022, and because his team Jumbo is openly tied to Jonas Vingegaard.
However He’s got a Giro on his hands since this Saturday thanks to an amazing, admirable and wonderful time trial.is an exhibition worth enduring three gray, boring weeks of chronic naps, periods of nothing. Because when we talk about the 2023 edition of the Italian stage a few years from now, we’re not talking about the boring days, but about Roglic’s brilliant performance that touched the soul of Rome on an important cycling day before this Sunday’s pride parade.
