Impressive by Gerrans - and well done by Menchov keeping up with Di Luca and not wasting his team mates at all. |

Levi lost 3 seconds.
@Biathlon: how the feck do you expect Leipheimer to win the Giro. He is clearly a level lower uphill.
It's Menchov vs Di Luca. |

I have said it last, the man of the breakaway will win the stage.
I think that menchov will do it. |

Leipheimer was left behind, got back because the others slow down then was left behind again. He's clearly the best climber in this Giro and Menchov has now no chance to beat him, right biathlon?

Well done Gerrans.
Great uphill finish, even though it made little gaps (at least for LL)

Evans hadn't the team that Levi has behind him. And didn't lose time in a stage like this.

Kinda different.
He doesn't have a fractured collarbone and bruised hip slowing him down.

Did anyone notice that fat guy on the podium that handed those gifts to Gerrans? Man, what a fatty. |

Looking at the timetables for the stages, aside from the Milano stage, EVERY stage has been faster than the fastest predicted schedule.
This is killing the peloton. People are going to crack in a major way on Monday.

Yes they also called Froome Kenyan, expect loads of angry brits stating that he rides on british licens.
