We'll be using 34x28/29 gearing
that's not cycling; were the words coming out of Johan Bruyneel mouth as he explained the equipment Discovery would use during Stage 17 at the Giro d'Italia.He went on to exclaim, "there's no road at the end: it's 5.5 km up a ski slope."
I can't wait to see the razor thin climbers attack that stage and as well, see how large a group will be hors delai. I'm not sure of the Italian translation of outside the time limit so French will have to do. Please let me know if you know what it is.
Yey for the Giro, three weeks of entertainment!

Brutal. If the pros are using a 34x29 gear on that hill, can you imagine what we would need??? Even with an 18x36, I still think I'd be walkin' that thing. Brutal.
I imagine I'd need to ride in the tractor you see way back in that picture.
I wonder if there might be a gondola?
