    Caruso is going to keep trying to slip away

    Thought my 40/1 in play bet on Cav was going to come off, but I had to settle on my 9/1 Cort bet from this morning

    Sprinters basically ran out of bodies to pull the break back. I'm sure I saw Mads riding on the front himself at one point

    According to the betting markets Milan, Pedersen, Cavendish, Cort Nielsen and Matthews are in with a shout.

    Surely the other two in the break won't drag Cort to the finish...
    I'd be no use as a commentator trying to build things up. Don't think the break has any chance. On that basis I should probably lay Cort.

    Is it just me who wants them to say "and Rakim" whenever Derek Gee is mentioned in commentary?

    No. It's definitely me as well.

    At this rate @mididoctors will be in pink purely for the Giro threads

    Blazing can't get back too soon. My threads suck .

    Oy now don’t be so critical. You are doing a cracking job. I might be 7,000 miles away but I am loving those intros.
    I am flying home tomorrow and should be online for Friday’s mountain stage.
    I am relying on you to kick off that stage and I will try to add some bits and bobs.

    Not looking forward to the Shiite weather in Europe.
    24C and cloudless here again today in what would be in our mid November.
    Haven’t seen a cloud in a week.

    Bettiol off in a amazing incident

    If you're looking for ride of the 2nd week, he finished in the main GC group.
