Have you not seen the route for next week?
Not sure about Wiggy's more there? Far too far to ride from the summit even if he could have stayed away. Wouldn't be suprised to see Richie Porte get back on by the finish, depending in how many team mates his has around him.
Don't get me wrong, love to see attacking racing, just not sure it's a wise move for Wiggy with what's to come next week. Maybe he knows he's not got much of a chance next week and thought a dig at the stage win might have been worth a go?
I certainly have - mine was tongue in cheek.
Next Saturday's stage - over 6000 vertical metres of climbing. Should be a ripper!0 -
Sastre and Vino riding back up to them. Half expected Sastre to do that.0
-
They all look like they are hurting, none of them flying up.0
-
Didn't expect this, thought they would just roll over the summit in a big group. Another cracking Giro stage. Question is, who is going to get back on the descent. Satre and Vino, but who else?0
-
The Cunego / Wiggins group is not that far behind. But still 4km of the climb to go.0
-
27 secs, should get back before the finish...0
-
Could Evans attack on the way down? Time to be made today.0
-
Basso looks really good. Good to see him taking the initiative.0
-
Light rain there too, spots on the camera and you can see people with umbrellas. Could make the descent "interesting"0
-
This little rain shower could make the descent interesting if it gets a bit harder0
-
Good work. Those who want to win have to commit to long range attacks every day in order to gain back the time needed. Risks have to be taken.
But the descent is long and relatively easy, it should allow a group that works well (big if) to pull back time.0 -
Woah, what happened there Cadel?0
-
What a place to crack!0
-
1'10" for Vino / Sastre at the top.0
-
Decent looks very dangerous, "turn your granny to the wall"0
-
I suspect that Bradders was always going to blow.. but he should have kept his powder dry a big longer and he may not have detonated so badly ...**************************************************

So that was the easy climb of the week!
Nibali versus Vino on the decent, or will the younger rider have to wait for Basso?
Bye bye Riche.........."Science is a tool for cheaters". An anonymous French PE teacher.0 -
A little girl on a tricycle could descend better than Basso the Oaf**************************************************

Sunny, raining, looks very changeable. What you need are some sort of eyewear that can adapt to changing light conditions. Maybe even give protection to harmful UV rays 8)0

You'll need a maths degree to figure out who's in pink tonight.0

But where can I obtain such a thing?"In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"

Probably from Croatia. It's the Mediterranean, the way it used to be.Le Blaireau (1)0

To be fair... Sastre looked like 2005 vintage Basso coming down. Intendo looked pretty good."In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"

Vino 1'38" back, Evans, Scarponi and Basso are still 25 back on Nibali0
