Most likely not going to announce my goals next year. Let‘s see if covid still manages to ruin my hopes then.
For now I‘ll rest and enjoy home.
hope you enjoy the last minute three weeks Italy all inclusive trip.

Our new study led by Erik Mannerfelt & Amaury Dehecq uses 's “TerrA” archive to reconstruct the topography of #Swiss #glaciers in the 1930s and quantify changes since then! The TerrA images also featured in our recent repeat-photos. (1/6) tc.copernicus.org/articles/16/32

Being a kid I had the chance, the luck to see glaciers.
„The face of the alps“
„Eternal ice“
Nothing eternal about them as the glaciers of the world lose around 300 Billion tons of ice every year.
I hope future generations can experience glaciers too.

If you were a kid 18k yrs ago you would have seen not much but glaciers in the Northern Hemispheres. Climate change has been with us forever. The difference is the green grifters have now turned it into a industrial money maker !

Well, let’s use a more appropriate term then. I am a strong believer that we are experiencing a climate crisis. A climate crisis that we, as human beings are responsible for!
The rate at which the earth is warming is alarming. In my humble opinion we better act now!

That’s why I donate 1 CHF per rider that finishes behind me in every race of this 2022 season towards the fight against climate change.
So far 3341 riders have finished behind me. #raceforacause

Hey . You didn't win the Vuelta but your white jersey is worth a donation. I'll give €1000 (1085.7 CHF) to the environmental organisation that has been chosen.
You're an example for many.

Gino, if you win the Vuelta, I'll donate € 3000 to that environmental organisation. Extra motivation.

Each rider I beat on every stage equals 1 euro that I‘ll spend to an environmental organisation.
To decide where the money should go, write in the comments where it‘s best invested! The comment with the most likes at the end of the three weeks get‘s chosen.

It was not even on the climb, but after the downhill. Was just stupid.
Thank you so much for supporting me throughout this Vuelta like this! Together till the end!

Could each sticky bottle culprit add 200 CHF to your total?

I‘ll surely add all the fines I get. Because it really is against everything I stand for and I hate me a little bit for that bottle to be honest.

Stage 17: 150 riders beaten.
Also on a negative side, I got fined for a sticky bottle, rightfully so. It was unnecessary and stupid. The fine is 200 CHF and as it is really deserved, I‘ll add this to my total as well. Sorry
