Giro d'Italia 2026 spoilers

[Blazing Saddles]

I will be catching up on some of the earlier stages that I missed and Tro Bro.
With perfect timing, I am away for the Dauphine (sorry ain’t changing the name again) and Switzerland.

Eulalio didn’t lie down. He’s got a future I think.

Bernal was superb. Not sure why Jonas put so much into that, I thought he’d be happy having GC in the bag and getting as much recovery as possible. Very dominant ride again though.

May I present to you:

Three week training block in Italy and pick up the GT win you haven't got yet. It's quite absurd really. I'm starting to worry it won't be tough enough to actually get him in shape for the Tour. It's possible we see some longer solo rides next week, or harder efforts on final climbs if his coaches want more.

I mean it's nuts really, but he genuinely may not have had enough of a work out at the very top levels he'll need for the Tour

Just a counter thought. It is possible that the 3 week part is more important than the hard climb part?
I guess we find out in a few weeks.

I always enjoy the third week more than the first two…….then again I am talking about holidays!🤣

Even the Visma bus driver using the Giro to train for the Tour?*

*no idea which team bus it actually was, though I reckon if it had been Visma's then we'd have heard about it

Both Felix Gall and Eulalio must be really pleased. Ineos must be hoping for O.Onley to do well at the Tour. Bernal is history as far as I can see and Arensmen hasn't improved.

It's a decent circuit

This looks dangerous
