Gilbert for me.
Very pleased for GT. The jury's still out on how good he's going to be after ending his track career so this is a great start.to the next phase.
Eh?Someone has gone up that corkscrew climb in under 8 minutes so it's not really a climb in pro cycling terms. It's a speed bump!!
Eh?
The Mur de Huy takes the pros less than 4 minutes but they certainly know that they have been up a climb!![]()
Yes, it hardly matters whether it takes 8 minutes or 2 minutes or even half an hour, it's still the strongest rider who reaches the top first.![]()
As opposed to some of the climbs in the Tour, the Giro and Vuelta..............??
Of course the strongest rider is the one who reaches the top first. It makes a massive difference to the entire peloton the length, gradient and number of climbs in a race.
In pro cycling terms, that was a piece of ****.
