Hmm, Montaguti fighting for leader credentials... let's wait for the TT to see if it's his turn stay with the likes of Mendes and Kolobnev the upcoming hills.

The tradition of my team continues. Bakhin is in the break, so Firsanov does nothing. Way to go!

There's the ITT for you. I have no idea how to make one interesting to report (let alone sit and watch) so i hope that's ok. I also managed to lose (well accidently delete) about half my images so not the best from me, sorry.
The upcoming hills should prove interesting. The climbers lost chunks of time and will have to come and attack Zoidl now so let's hope for some aggresive racing from the likes of Kolobnev/Mendes/Arroyo before a mountainous showdown.

Having seen the way the Tour of Bulgaria panned out, I wouldn't be surprised if the GC stays the same way to the finish. Which would be a good thing from Bonsucro's point of view with the riders up there in GC here. Though some decent time gaps could open up on stages 4 and 8. |

6th is an acceptable result for Velits. Hopefully it'll go even better later on in the race.

If you are lucky they might have still been hiding in your recycling bin.
It would have been nice if you'd have mentioned how much time Arroyo, Schurter et al lost to Zoidl when you said they lost alot of time so I didn't have to look it up which is a little more difficult on my iPod as I can't use ctrl + F to find them, though it wouldn't have been a problem if I'd have viewed the report on my computer.
The stage went well for us, with Zoidl picking up the teams second stage win of the race and taking over GC from Schurter. Unfortunately he didn't quite gap Arroyo as much as I would have liked but that just means he'll have to work harder to defend the jersey later on.

Oba 
I don't know why but he keeps constantly disappointing me in every TT of this season so far.
Sayar loosing a chunk of time was to be expected but he limited his losses well and sits in 23rd in GC now. In the upcoming hilly stages he will improve his overall and hopefully get into the final top 10. |

Not the best TT that.. Hopefully both Bugge and Walker can climb in the GC in the coming stages.

If we get a top 20 GC from this, it will be a miracle, hoping for some breakaway action now in the hope of a stage win, oh well...

Definitly not dissapointed by the TT of Arroyo here, so the GC-Hopes is still very high yet. Hopefully he wont stay inactive in the hilly stages and miss more time there.

A bit disappointed by Joeaar. Hoped to see him better placed after this TT so that he would be treated more like a GC favourite. Now, we have to find a different way to get our points.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Very happy with the TT... Marantez still in the top 10, only 44s back of the top. Should be able to make that time up on the climbs. Just have to watch out for the even better climbers coming up from below.

Solid TT by our guys. Next stage will be interesting. Either Hollenstein or Montaguti need to stay with the top punchers attacks.

Not the greatest of races for us but with one stage left all our hopes are on Neil Van der Ploeg to do the business  |

Still five stages to come though
But cool to see VdP sitting on 9th at this point. Also Dyball for Wounded and Haig for Maloja doing well in the TT. Nice nice!

A shame Sayar was so badly positioned. Judging by the pictures he came from far behind. 6th is still decent. |

At least Rosa tried something, we really need to try to get into the morning breakway
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

well we kept the leader's jersey and Zoidl didn't lose any time so it was a good day, I'd be happy if they all ended this way.
