Well if he podiums then does it really matter? Also he has said a couple of times that he's playing it safe until the 3rd week
It will be a dry, dry May on Daily I can assure u
Maybe but again if he podiums then he's done his job
Yes, I don't dispute that, all I say is he probably is the most passive GC rider and taking into consideration he can't TT and is a pure climber, I don't like it. Not at all. Leipheimer is another case, but he would demolish people on TT's.
Well I say wait until he's away from uncle Oleg and he might become a more attacking rider like he's done in the Tour when he's had the freedom. I dare say he's been told to make the podium by that Knob of a team owner so play it safe to do that.
I would like to see him attacking as he can be quite an exciting rider when he goes for it

Honestly the worst Giro route ever...
Even the Tour always has at least 2 decisive groups of mountain stages. Why would you place the first mountain stage on stage 19? |

what do you think tomorrow is He is just trolling.Stage 14 is better than last 2015's Tour mountain stages all combined.
At least most of this years' Tour mountain stages are good though.

Passo Giau is one of the best climbs in Italy. full on action every time it's raced. Even if it was placed 150 kms from the finish like in 2008 there was bigtime action there.
"Some minor mountains" Pordoi, Sella, Gardena, Campolongo, Giau, Valparoala. 5300 altitude metres
