    Lol indeed, all looking backwards for the fifth rider
    Pain hurts much less if its topped off with beating your mates to top of a climb.

    Does anyone understand the Italian pro conti teams this year? They change sponsors so often I've completely lost track of who's who.

    Looks like someone from Sky will be in pink. Any idea who it would be?

    Puccio based on yesterday's result apparently.

    +25s for Hesjedal. A bit careless from Garmin, no?

    JV suggesting the wind might have changed for the late starters...

    Suppose the Sea Breeze will be dying off by now, so maybe...

    Very slow indeed by the looks

    Hmm, well Í suspect OPQS were nt too interested in this. Not sure that theyre THAT bad (unless something wind related has changed..)

    Puccio: absolutely gobsmacked. :D

    Hell of a win for Sky Italia.

    Might not be that bothered by winning it, but they are a pretty good at TTT's guess I expected them to be a bit quicker.

    I know there's a lot of Sky haters out there but surely they'd have to have hearts of granite not to deny Puccio's day. Bit of a fairytale really even if he never wears it again in his career. Something for his grand-kids

    Proper happy for Puccio.
