@lsa if you got someone in mind for : Top 10 finish, Team Classification, King of the Mountains or Young Rider Classification can add the odds for those guys/team also

Is like 5:32 am and I have no coffee.
But Jonas and Poga are my go to here.
I think this is Pogas year since Jonas has been out with a severe injury and he has also lost his side kick Kuss.
Visma will have a hard time.

Poga on the other hand has been strong as hell

@Zebra Cheeks knows more and I am sure would like to do a little betin on the bikies

 

[helax]

The answer is Pogacar

That’s what I’m going to be doing

Because of the format it’s a safe bet.

They backloaded it. Normally the most prestigious stage is the last one and all these dudes stick around to help their sprinter take a shot at it.

There’s no sprint stage for like the last 5 days

It’s like
4k elevation
5k elevation
4k elevation
Mountain time trial

So these big sprinters, and their 5-6 team mates are gonna be like “nah fuck this I’m going home”

And the race starts on very thin roads in Italy with no initial TT and immigrate climbing. so they are going to be fucking RIPPING on these tiny ass roads and I guarantee we lose at least a few guys to crashes in the first few days.

Plus a gravel stage?

The herd will be culled

 

[Dillydilly]

thru 15 stages 24 riders have withdrawn

seems Pogacar has taken over last 2 days and leads by 3 minutes

 

[helax]

My mans pog got the game sewed up

Pog snatched souls over the weekend. Broke an Armstrong record by about 6 minutes on Sunday.

He’s hitting power levels never recorded before and looks outstanding. He’s gotta stay on it. 3 big stages left.

Rider withdrawals are gonna hit. We started with only 2 in the first 10 days. Then it got hard, and we only need 6 more to hit the number at this point.

Yo boy gonna make out like a bandit

 

[Zebra Cheeks]

Dude was GONE as soon as he went

 

[Zebra Cheeks]

We’re currently waiting on the final rider to drop out with 4 stages remaining
