Giro d’Italia : Remco Evenepoel is ready to suffer through ‘backaches and big bruises’ Remco Evenepoel, of Soudal-QuickStep, appeared optimistic and upbeat about the remainder of the race despite suffering from road rash and bruises. The Belgian, who had been wearing a black wet weather gear throughout the previous day’s stage, wore his standard white world championship kit at the start of the race in Napoli, instead of the black wet weather gear he wore during the soggy stage on Wednesday. He even displayed his football skills at the sign-on podium. “I slept very well,” he said. He added that he felt “happy” with the feeling, despite the marks left overnight. Evenepoel was involved in two crashes on a slippery and wet stage 5. The first occurred when a dog crossed the road during the opening hours, and the second happened on the chaotic run up to Salerno when he collided with two Trek-Segafredo cyclists. The world champion was said to have suffered pain in his sacrum after the first crash, and a hematoma on his hip area after the second fall. “I have a lot of pain in my back and some big bruises.” Evenepoel told the audience on Thursday morning that he had a large black spot on his back. “It’s the way of life, it’s a race, we’ve got to deal with it, and try as much to handle the pain and relax as much possible. I’ll need lots of energy to heal the wounds.” “But until now, everything feels good. I’m happy about the feeling.” When asked if he feared his Giro, Evenepoel replied: “No. Fear is not the right word. That’s racing. That’s life. These things happen. “There are still a few problems in the rear area, but it seems to be better when I am on the bike than when I am off of it or sitting on a chair. We’ll see. We’re cyclists. We have to suffer in certain moments more than others. “I have to accept it, and push the pedals.” Toon Cruyt – the team doctor – who warned of the possible impact of Evenepoel’s injuries on Tuesday night – also struck a more positive tone in Napoli, on Thursday morning. “He had a great night.” He slept well, and the treatments that were given by the osteopath and kineo last night worked. Cruyt said: “We’ll see how the boy reacts to riding his bike, but I hope it will be fine.” “It depends how the race develops. If it’s dry, then it’s a big advantage over rain, where there can be crashes. We should avoid that now.” Evenepoel’s performance on Thursday’s stage 6 will be closely watched. The stage features undulating terrain, a few categorised climbs, but is straightforward from a classification perspective. It is not the same for Friday’s summit finish of the Gran Sasso d’Italia – the first major climbing event of this year’s Giro. Evenepoel acknowledged that the second day following a crash can be the most painful. He cited his crash at stage 12 of the Vuelta a Espana last year, where he completed the flat stage 13, but lost 48 seconds to Primoz Rodlic in the Sierra de la Pandera. “I hope I don’t experience a bad moment, because I had one last year after two days in Vuelta. We’ll have to wait and see,” Evenepoel replied. “Today is a good day because it’s a hard day, so the legs will be pushing. “First today, then tomorrow.” Cruyt did not seem to be too concerned about the two-day prospect. He referred to Evenepoel’s mental strength. Cruyt said, “Usually the first two day are important. But if he does well today, then I think he will be fine for tomorrow.” “Often, the second day of the week is the worst. But it’s also a mental problem. Remco does not have this mental issue. He was ready to fight 10 minutes after the crash.

Wink News: Street closures in Collier County are causing confusion and headaches. A major street in Collier County has been closed for the safety of people. Fourth Avenue South will be closed by the City of Naples through December in order to complete a $20,000,000 renovation of the Naples Players Theater. WINK News spoke with people on Monday night who said that closing the road would be a problem for them and the businesses along the route. “I don’t look forward to that,” Connie Collis said, a Naples resident. The Naples Players and City of Naples announced that Fourth Ave would be closed to ensure the safety of drivers and pedestrians during the Naples Players renovation project. This makes Connie Collis a 15-year resident frustrated. Collis said, “It’s not great because we really enjoy parking at the Trulux valet parking when we come downtown. And now it’s been blocked, and they told us that it will be blocked next season.” Cilia Podley said that not only would the closure be a hassle for some in terms of parking, but she also saw a decline in business since the sign was put up. Podley noticed that there were also unfamiliar cars parked on the side of building. “We’ve seen a slight slowdown in business and I’ve noticed that parking is on our side of Fifth Avenue to get there,” Podley said. Podley hopes that people will find a solution to get to the restaurant, as the closure is expected last for several months. Podley said, “We try to be as positive as possible and hope that people find other places to drive or park and come to us.” The road will be closed until December, but the Naples Players have said that they are working with the city in order to open it during special events or high-traffic days like the 4th of July as long as the conditions are safe. If you’re driving to or from the area, you may want to consider an alternate route.
