Friends and friends of OA Sportcycling enthusiasts, good morning to all and welcome to Live LIVE text from the third stage from the Tyrrhenian-Adriatic 2023! The first two stages of the Italian stage race are now over and it’s time to move towards today’s race.
For today’s stage, a total of 216 kilometers are foreseen along a rough route but, as happened yesterday, not particularly demanding and with a probable sprint finish; from Follonica we will reach Foligno where, considering the last flat kilometers, we will be able to see the sprinters at work.
Several ups and downs planned, with two GPMs at Passo del Lume Spento (12.5 km at 4.2%) and La Foce (5.3 km at 4.5%), both in the first part of the race. Subsequently, after passing the intermediate sprint of Moiano (km 138.7) you will continue on mainly flat roads until you reach the final finish line in Foligno.
