PREVIEW | Tour of Oman 2024 stage 2 - Yates and Fisher-Black the overwhelming favourites for hilltop finish
Cycling
Preview stage 2. From the 10th to the 14th of February racing will resume in the Middle East, with the traditional Tour of Oman bringing an interesting set of stages that will suit sprinters, climbers and classics riders simultaneously.
Stage 2 of the Omani race will be a day for the puncheurs. A few ascents throughout the day will warm up the riders, however it will be a day where everyone will save their legs for the final ascent into Qurayyat. The final climb is an inconsistent 2.7 kilometers at 6.7% and can create some important early-race differences.
Prediction Tour of Oman 2024 stage 2:
*** Adam Yates, Finn Fisher-Black
** Warren Barguil
* Mauri Vansevenant, Fausto Masnada, Lorenzo Rota, Cristian Rodríguez, Roger Adrià, Ide Schelling
Pick: Finn Fisher-Black

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
