Evans is walking away with the race! He started slowly, but now he is on fire. He is putting time into everyone on every stage that finishing up hill.
3 stages left...

One stage left of the Giro, and only 34" separates Txurruka and Pinotti! Sadly I don't have the screenshots of the stage, so I can't build the tension as much as some other stories. Instead, I will just wait til later on til I post 
How do you like that for tension...?

Roulston's Giro ends early after horrific crash
HTC - Highroad's Hayden Roulston had to withdraw from the Giro d'Italia today, after a terrible crash during today's stage from Verbania to Sestriere. The New Zealand RR champion fell heavily on a fast descent, sliding into some road furniture back first in the process. He led motionless for several minutes, whilst being treated by the Race Doctors, before being air lifted to hospital.
Early reports from HTC spokesperson shows that Roultson suffered a lower back fracture, and will be out until the end of July at the earliest.

Evans was outstanding!! it makes it even worse, that after the first 6 stages, he was 2'00 down on Anton on GC! he was outstanding when the road really got steep. The Zoncolan stage was the major turning point!
Marco did brilliantly to get his podium place back! It was a tense final ITT in Milan. Delighted with him!

 Tour de Picardie
| m | Name | Team | Time | | 1 | Gaetan Bille | Wallonie Bruxelles - Crédit Agricole | 10h44'51 | | 2 | Marcel Sieberg | Omega Pharma - Lotto | + 16 | | 3 | Julien Antomarchi | Velo-Club La Pomme Marseille | + 20 | | . | | Points | Samuel Dumoulin | Cofidis, le crédit en ligne | | KoM | Gaetan Bille | Wallonie Bruxelles - Crédit Agricole | | Under 25 | Gaetan Bille | Wallonie Bruxelles - Crédit Agricole | | Team | Roubaix Lille Métropole |
We headed to Picardie, working for John Degenkolb in the sprints. However, due to a lack of form, he was never really able to make and impact, and was our best placed rider in 31st place on GC.
 Bayern - Rundfahrt
| m | Name | Team | Time | | 1 | Stefan Schumacher | Miche - Guerciotti | 18h37'24 | | 2 | Nick Nuyens | Saxo Bank SunGard | + 5 | | 3 | Bert Grabsch | HTC - Highroad | + 50 | | . | | Points | Stefan Schumacher | Miche - Guerciotti | | KoM | Kanstantsin Siutsou | HTC - Highroad | | Under 25 | Leopold König | Team NetApp | | Team | Miche - Guerciotti |
This was a great Bayern - Rundfahrt for the team. Bert Grabsch walked away with a podium place in the overall GC, whilst Kanstantsin Siutsou took a stage win and won the KoM jersey, and finally John Degenkolb won on the final stage. Well Done to everyone on the team! Great Perfomance!

Brajkovic: I can't take it any more at RadioShack
Janez Brajkovic has put the big teams on red alert, after proclaiming he has to leave RadioShack at the end of the year. The Slovenian rider is far from happy with his bit part role in the team, and is refusing to speak to the Shack's bosses about renewing his contract for 2012.
HTC - Highroad are favourites to sign the rider, with Astana and Garmin watching the situation closely.
In other transfer news, RadioShack are looking at replacing Brajkovic with Astana's young gun Roman Kreuziger.
