Something to ponder ahead of this anticipated duel.Įvenepoel learned lessons of a different kind when he made his Grand Tour debut at the 2021 Giro, which was also his first race after breaking his pelvis eight months previously. No race, least of all the Giro, is ever solely a contest between two riders. The Ecuadorian gratefully seized the pink jersey and Roglič, restricted by illness in the third week, was never able to win it back, reaching Verona in third overall. In 2019, Roglič dominated the opening fortnight but then his Jumbo-Visma team made the questionable tactical decision to allow Richard Carapaz significant leeway, distracted by their focus on Vincenzo Nibali.
QUAY HINDSIGHT TRIAL
There is also plenty in this Giro route for Roglič, not least the mountain time trial on the Italo-Slovenian border on the penultimate day.īoth Evenepoel and Roglič are united, too, by some unfinished business with the Giro. The doubts were quickly assuaged when Roglič won three stages and the overall title in a surprise appearance at Tirreno-Adriatico, and further reassurance came when he withstood Evenepoel’s repeated onslaughts in Catalunya to take the decision there too. The crash that ended the Slovenian’s putative Vuelta fightback in Tomares forced him to undergo shoulder surgery that delayed his pre-season training and raised questions about his planned 2023 programme. Lest there were any doubts, the 23-year-old is on schedule for the Grande Partenza.īut then so too is Roglič, despite rumours to the contrary last winter. Last summer, Evenepoel took time out of his altitude training to send an ominous pre-Vuelta message at the Clásica San Sebastián, a warning echoed at Liège-Bastogne-Liège on Sunday. Evenepoel, those close to him say, relishes the methodical steps of a long-term project, and this, his second tilt at the Giro, has been planned along strikingly similar lines to his successful Vuelta a España build-of up last year. The Belgian didn’t take long to heed the call, formally confirming the open secret of his Giro participation in November, by which point he was already busily reconnoitering parts of the route. In other words, it was a route that seemed to double as a come-and-get-me plea to the newly minted world champion Evenepoel.
When the Giro d'Italia route was unveiled in Milan in October, the map showed some 70km of time trialling, including two flat tests in the opening week.
QUAY HINDSIGHT MOVIE
In hindsight, subsequent watches also earn Seed of Chucky distinction for being ahead of its time in terms of LGBTQIA+ inclusivity (which Mancini has always incorporated into the series to some degree).īy giving Chucky and Tiffany’s nonbinary child, Glen/Glenda, agency over their identity – as well as showcasing their parents’ support for them – the movie is often championed for giving a substantial section of the horror community the representation and acceptance it deserves.Giro d’Italia makes play for Remco Evenepoel with time trial-heavy routeĮvenepoel and Roglic expected to go 'mano a mano' at Giro d'Italia Plus, having Tilly play herself – alongside the film’s mockery of Hollywood – doubled down on the meta satire of its precursor. When that initial sting wore off, however, numerous watchers relished the continuously spirited chemistry between Chucky and his aforementioned bride, Tiffany (and by association, voice actors Brad Dourif and Jennifer Tilly, respectively). In contrast, Seed of Chucky fundamentally focused on absurd moments (such as Chucky masturbating) and cringe-worthy nods to celebrities such as Redman, John Waters, and Britney Spears. Granted, 1998’s Bride of Chucky foreshadowed this change in tone, but it also stayed true to mastermind Don Mancini’s scary origins.
