Welcome back to the Lantern Rouge cycling podcast for a continuation of one of the best stage races this year

And it's still got a few stages to go this has been unbelievably good action into it a Swiss if you haven't been watching it

I know some territories that is quite difficult to watch

It's been unbelievable race

Summer's back. It's here. I'm a little bit frazzled went for a ride today, and I was just

I was cooking and I even met some podcast some podcast fans

I was I was I do in cold or dino an interval. I go past people sometimes I go past people and I heard you

Lantern Rouge, which is never that never happens in our door because no one knows who I am here

I don't want to hear it. I don't want to hear an Australian talk about it's to warm outside

Handling with a heatwave in Belgium, and I am literally melting where I am sitting so I don't want to hear it

I mean I'm cooking with gas my legs are on

I'm on fire

Anyway big mountain stage, and this is the giro would have would have prayed to have a stage like this

I'll tell you what 211 kilometers from fish to La Ponte

Shammous I can't pronounce it. I don't know if it's French. I don't know if it's half German. I think it's they're in the French

I don't know sorry Switzerland

I have a small brain 22k is a flat and the further past 16 and a half k is 6.4 percent

I think we are in the German speaking past, but then a descent through Andermart then the Oberl pass 10.7 k is 5.6 percent

Both over 2000 meters. That's a lot of fatigue even though you do have about 120k value afterwards

Before the albula pass 17 and a half k's 6.8 percent and the last

7k is a very steady 7.7 and a half percent up to 2,300 meters that's

Koldel or Lowe's territory. Sierra Nevada is at 2500. This is a very high finish
