Giro d'Italia Stage 8
Barry, Tankink, Geslin and, again, Merabito are in the breakaway
It's fucking annoying. We are here for the sprints but again Cavendish isn't there
Very good postion for Boom
But is very hard to fight against sprinters like Boonen or Napolitano with Lars Boom
And Boonen wins, and 3rd is still a very good postion for Lars
Stage
1. Tom Boonen Quick·Step 4h57'55
2. Danilo Napolitano Lampre s.t.
3. Lars Boom Team Columbia s.t.
4. Pierrick Fédrigo Bouygues Télécom s.t.

Giro d'Italia Stage 9
A massive breakaway group today. But they will be caught
For the first time in this Giro we can make our train
Boom is leading perfectly the pack
Now Greipel takes the lead

Well done . Too bad for Cavendish. If he does so next year in the Giro, will be difficult for him to win a stage

Why sorry? I'm playing with Dankan's RNDB, but that stage of Giro is the VizleFX Giro Pack, if you want to have that kind of road in the last km of the race and those banners
