Sorry, guys. I have to break a story for a while. Right now I have no motivation to continue, as a girl that I love... She told me that she don't like me... I want to have a time for thinking about my life
I think I will continue later

No, thanks. There's nothing to talk about. It's only my fault. Imagined something, but without any reasons. She didn't drop me any hints that she likes me, so ...

Don't worry too much Maximka, it's something every guy has done once I think (and so did I), so don't blame yourself |

Tirreno - Adriatico 2011
Second stage. Viterbe - Terni
Another flat stage. To be honest, I didn't feel myself good today. It's only my third racing day in this season and I knew that I won't play main role here, but it was humiliating to know that I am dropping on even slightly steep hills. I don't want even think about what will be in mountain stage!
Today our sprinters were better than yesterday. Well, Ginanni was better. Haedo isn't good in hills, you know, so he finished not in first rows. It was very close on the finish, where there were two trains. And stage gone to Bennati. Francesco was on Pozzato's wheel but he couldn't even went from it...
1 | Daniele Bennati | Liquigas - Doimo | 4h29'26 | 2 | Mattia Gavazzi | Colnago - CSF Inox | s.t. | 3 | Filippo Pozzato | Team Katusha | s.t. | 4 | Rubén Pérez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | s.t. | 5 | Francesco Ginanni | Androni Giocattoli | s.t. | 6 | Alessandro Petacchi | Lampre - Farnese Vini | s.t. | 7 | Tom Boonen | Quick·Step | s.t. | 8 | Jérôme Pineau | Quick·Step | s.t. | 9 | Leigh Howard | Team HTC - Columbia | s.t. | 10 | Thor Hushovd | Quick·Step | s.t. |
Third stage. Rieti - Ascoli Pineco
Last stage before decisive stage to Passo Lanciano. We had small training before mountain finish. It was awful! I have seen like sprinters rolled good but I couldn't be even on their wheels! At the end of climb I was exhausted and on all other kilometers just tried to be in center of the bunch.
Finish was again for sprinters. Juan-Jose today even couldn't stay with first grupetto, so we only hoped for Francesco. He placed himself in good position on Hushovd's wheel, but it wasn't good move, as today there were another heroes.
Still young Boasson Hagen produced another victory for his Sky team.
We also have something to celebrate. Konstantin Sivstov tried to manage to breakaway many times on last two days, and although his breaks were catched immediately, he have got enough mountain points to start in maglia verde tomorrow.
Stage results:
1 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky Professional Cycling Team | 3h26'42 | 2 | Óscar Freire | Rabobank | s.t. | 3 | Matti Breschel | Team Saxo Bank | s.t. | 4 | Daniele Bennati | Liquigas - Doimo | s.t. | 5 | Enrico Gasparotto | Astana | s.t. | 6 | Mattia Gavazzi | Colnago - CSF Inox | s.t. | 7 | Grega Bole | Lampre - Farnese Vini | s.t. | 8 | Rubén Pérez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | s.t. | 9 | Filippo Pozzato | Team Katusha | s.t. | 10 | Thor Hushovd | Quick·Step | s.t. |
GC:
1 | Daniele Bennati | Liquigas - Doimo | 11h29'47 | 2 | Filippo Pozzato | Team Katusha | + 5 | 3 | Mattia Gavazzi | Colnago - CSF Inox | + 6 | 4 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky Professional Cycling Team | + 8 | 5 | Óscar Freire | Rabobank | + 13 | 6 | Sylvain Chavanel | Team RadioShack | + 14 | 7 | Matti Breschel | Team Saxo Bank | + 15 | 8 | Koldo Fernández | Euskaltel - Euskadi | + 17 | 9 | Daniele Pietropolli | Lampre - Farnese Vini | + 18 | 10 | Mirco Lorenzetto | Team Katusha | s.t. |

Tirreno - Adriatico 2011
Fourth stage. Chieti - Passo Lanciano.
And here it is, the stage for which I came for. I don't mean that I wanted to win here, I know that my fitness is not good, I think it's about 65-70 per cent of maximum, but I wanted to compare myself in that form with main climbers. And you know, I was happy with my result.
But let's see how it unfolded. As always, there were few tries to break the group and finally 11 riders have gone. No one from Androni succeeded but it wasn't our priority. Two big climbs in middle of the stage were passed by with constant speed, so even our flat sprinter, Haedo hold his position almost on all length of climbs.
The very beginning of Passo Lanciano also was calm. But it was calm before the storm. With 10 km to finish all the favorites begun to attack. And finally a group of over 15 riders was made. There were Scarponi, Sivtsov, Solari and me in that group, so we had good number of riders.
We chased down breakaway with no troubles and when there was only one kilometer to finish there started attacks to victory. Andy Schleck was main favorite and when he mad his move, Scarponi set on his wheel. Younger Maschiarelli made that too and that trio play off the stage.
Scarponi started his sprint first and on the line Schleck and Masciarelli passed him.
I finished 9th, which is very good sign for the Giro
Stage results:
1 | Andy Schleck | Team Saxo Bank | 5h13'40 | 2 | Francesco Masciarelli | Acqua & Sapone | s.t. | 3 | Michele Scarponi | Androni Giocattoli | s.t. | 4 | Giampaolo Caruso | Ceramica Flaminia | + 14 | 5 | Juan José Oroz | Euskaltel - Euskadi | s.t. | 6 | Vincenzo Nibali | Sky Professional Cycling Team | s.t. | 7 | Carlos Barredo | Quick·Step | s.t. | 8 | Kanstantsin Siutsou | Androni Giocattoli | + 39 | 9 | Max Belaschov | Androni Giocattoli | + 55 | 10 | Amets Txurruka | Euskaltel - Euskadi | + 1'59 |

1 | Andy Schleck | Team Saxo Bank | 16h43'36 | 2 | Francesco Masciarelli | Acqua & Sapone | + 4 | 3 | Michele Scarponi | Androni Giocattoli | + 6 | 4 | Carlos Barredo | Quick·Step | + 24 | 5 | Juan José Oroz | Euskaltel - Euskadi | s.t. | 6 | Vincenzo Nibali | Sky Professional Cycling Team | s.t. | 7 | Giampaolo Caruso | Ceramica Flaminia | s.t. | 8 | Kanstantsin Siutsou | Androni Giocattoli | + 49 | 9 | Max Belaschov | Androni Giocattoli | + 1'05 | 10 | Amets Txurruka | Euskaltel - Euskadi | + 2'09 |

Tirreno - Adriatico 2011
Fifth stage. Pescara - Termoli
We had a concrete goal for this race. It was to win a stage. Yesterday Michele Scarponi was very close to that, but he didn't succeeded. And with only two stages left (well, it's three actually, but in ITT we have no chances), we did our best today, as we have tow great sprinters.
Juan-Jose Haedo looks like Loddo last year. He is good in sprinting, but if stage doesn't have any climbs at all, and today he was again not in best shape when we came to Termoli. So, our main man was Francesco Ginanni.
Today, as I made everything I need from this race, I was clearly a domestique, the Last Wheel. Francesco set on my wheel and I bring him to the front. I started sprint, but I wasn't too fast, so when Bennati overtook me, Ginanni nail his wheel and when it was some meters to the finish, he outrun Liqiugas rider!
We have made one season goal of five left! It's incredible! Now we have to save Scarponi's position... Well, tomorrow he will be one-to-one with timer, but we all hope that he will be in top-5 after all.
Game crashed right after finish, so sorry, no pictures and results.
Meanwhile, in Paris-Nice our rider, Bertagnoli, finished 4th overall.
