Giro d'Italia Stage 13


Siutsou and Lowik are in front on the first climb of the day


But soon Lowik is left behind as Siutsou's pace was too fast for him


Siutsou has more than 5 minutes, at the start of the penultimate climb, over a group with Rujano, Garate and Baliani


After the first half of the climb he loses half of the advantage. The solo breakaway seems to pay him back


And Baliani is the first to catch him


Right after that Garate and Rujano caught and left him behind


Siutsou seems to be in really trouble at the moment. He is losing minute after minute


Baliani has almost one minute advantage on the last climb over Garate and Rujano


Indeed this was Fortunato's day


The big names of this Giro and the first 2 places in the overall rankings, Ricco and Cunego finished the stage toghether


An another hard day in the saddle for Rogers. He is now 15th overall.

Giro d'Italita Stage 14


Siutsou won some other important KoM points today


But he couldn't help too much Rogers on the last climb


Piepoli was first at the summit there, with Cunego, Ricco and Pellizotti right after him


All the other names were in the second group


Rogers was of course there


David Lopez was the only one that almost cracked but he managed to hang on there


Savoldelli tried to catch his 4 compatriots that were leading on the downhill, but he can't get the speed that he used to have some days ago


Though that were 2 the Saunier Duval riders seem to lose speed in the final kilomtres of the stage


Everything is going to be now between Pellizotti and Cunego


And the winner is Cunego!

Well... Nice story - lovin' it... Don't wanna look in 92 pages for finding my answer so, which database do you use?

thanks

the first RNDB

thanks

Loving it Fantastic story - hope Siutsou'll achieve his goal

Fuck Cunego he's stealing the purple jersey from Cav

I know I always hate that, it happens almost everytime in Giro and Vuelta, but not in the Tour (the overall leader wearing the points jersey as well).

Btw Cavendish will ride in Vuelta as second GT of the year and not the Tour simply because there are a lot of flat stages in Vuelta and only a few of them in le Tour.

Giro d'Italia Stage 15


Pinotti was the most combative rider today


Rogers tried an early attack for the first time in this Giro.


But he cracked on the last climb and he was caught


Soler, who was with Rogers at the start of the climb, is still in front


But now he is caught by the big guys, Cunego and Ricco


And it seems that it will be between those two as Soler is slowly left behind


Can Ricco stop Cunego winning again?


No, an another win for this year Giro's king.

Cunego is just waaaay too good

Don't let him steal the KoM jersey too!

Giro d'Italia Stage 16


Good times for the best climber this year in Giro, Siutsou and for his team leader, Michael Rogers


Very good performance for the pure climbers such as Piepoli, Sella, Gesink or Soler


On his way of taking the lead, Ricco caught Pellizotti, who started 2 minutes before him


Cunego couldn't beat Ricco today but he keeps the pink jersey
