There were 16 kilometers left to finish the Giro, individually, from Cernusco sul Naviglio to the Duomo of Milan. Matthias Brändle was the first one to set a fast time, quickly followed up by Alex Dowsett who arrived at the finish line a mere five seconds after his teammate. Israeli

There are only sixteen kilometers left in the Giro d’Italia 2020. After today’s final day in the mountains, climbing to Sestriere three times, tomorrow’s ITT is a sinecure for some, and serious business for others. Our individual time trial specialists Matthias Brändle and Alex Dowsett, tried to save up as

Dowsett in stage 19: In the break by accident, and looking for a déja vu

October 23, 2020 7:07 pm No Comments Sjors Beukeboom

In a shortened, flat stage (caused by several factors, but mostly the horrific weather conditions), ISN wanted to give Davide Cimolai a final chance for a podium finish. However, Alex Dowsett got into a winning break-away, somehow, by accident. “There was a group of riders who went away straight from

Queen stages in Grand Tours guarantee spectacle. And suffering. And fighting. All of that was shown once again, in stage 18 of the Giro d’Italia. The queen stage included four climbs, including the Cima Coppi: the mythical Passo dello Stelvio. The monster was covered in snow, good for amazing images,

We’ve touched the snow in the Giro d’Italia. It was only a matter of time before the race would find the snowy slopes of the Alps but it was still a ‘special moment’ according to Davide Cimolai. The Italian local hero is slowly but steadily leaving his home region. After

ISN had two major goals for stage 15 of the Giro d’Italia: get Dani Navarro into the breakaway of the day and get everyone else over the finish line within the time limit. We succeeded on both counts. The Spanish climber found himself in a promising group of escapees. He

It was an amazing thing to see: ITT national champions Matthias Brändle and Alex Dowsett (Austria and Great Britain) preparing for their individual time trials simultaneously. They both started early for their individual efforts in stage 14, and fought against each other for the hotseat. Brändle was up the road

“This is my biggest chance this Giro,” Davide Cimolai said before the start of stage 13. And he was right. He was the best climbing sprinter, together with Peter Sagan, but the climbers disrupted a potential party. ISN made a big contribution to chasing down the day’s breakaway. First it

Change of order!  With one of the strongest lead-out trains in pro cycling (Sagiv, Brändle, Dowsett, Zabel, Cimolai), ISN had a clear plan for today’s technical final: take responsibility and sprint with Rick Zabel (instead of Cimolai this time). Zabel was happy that ISN gave him a chance today. “A

ISN’s journey in the Giro 2020 continued with what was, on paper, a good stage for ISN sprinter Davide Cimolai. But the contenders for the general classification felt differently. Maybe it was the fear of a shortened Giro d’Italia after today’s COVID-19 cases that made the GC-contenders attack each other

Usually in cycling, rest days are well deserved. After today’s ninth stage of the Giro, ‘well-deserved’ is a massive understatement. It was a 205-kilometer-long journey of suffering for the whole peloton. It took around seventy kilometers for a breakaway to go, resulting in an incredible fast start. The mountainous terrain

On paper, stage 7 of the Giro d’Italia seemed to be one of the easiest. Easy or not, it was definitely eventful. ISN missed the first group, chased, came back, crashed, chased, came back again, and sprinted with Rudy Barbier to 6th place. The wind in the rural parts of
