2020 Giro d'Italia Discussion

:rofl: Imagine rocking up to the cafe on a group ride on that beast!

I get that they went w/ a black and white theme on the bike, but they totally blew it by not using Rock And Roll Over for the disc wheel.

Again, as one should never enter a land war in Asia, one should also never underestimate Gene’s thirst for licensing or publicity.

Now, what stage are we on?

Anyone knows where I can get one of those EF “ugly” jerseys? :grin:

$600 on Ebay from scalpers

I think I’ll wait then :sweat_smile:

They sold out in seconds when Rapha put them on sale earlier this week.

The Canyon-SRAM-Vans is kinda cool. The rest is ranging from boring to horrendous :thinking:

Sooo…no different than the usual peloton. :laughing:

And agreed, the Vans kit is the best of the bunch.

Exactly :yum:

Surprised that someone managed to make a trek logo as big on a jersey as it is on their bikes…
Must have been hell of a challenge.

I actually thought that was on of the best jerseys in the bunch…liked the way they had the logo across the arms and chest.

When I saw this Jersey, my first thought was: wow this is probably what Trump would wear, if he wasn’t allergic to exercise or would even into a Jersey :rofl:

Kruijswijk out of giro & full Mitchelton-SCOTT because of COVID. Also a yet unknown rider of Sunweb is positive. (update: Michael Matthews is also out)

Four staff members of Mitchelton-SCOTT, one staff member AG2R La Mondiale and one staff member INEOS Grenadiers.

Oh boy that smells like the end of the giro by the next rest day the latest. Always wondered how they were supposed to keep people from getting infected within the bubble, after someone tested positive. Afterall for us normal people, protocol says to quarantine after contact with a person who tested positive.

Their GC contender out and also seems to be spreading rapidly amongst other teams. May turn out to be the smart choice by Jumbo in a few days.

There is no bubble in the same way there was at the Tour at the Giro, but yeah once a rider has it almost impossible to stop it spreading.

Think I heard 10 teams were in 2 hotels.
