There was some at this Giro before today?
Yeah i know, but more of the same will do very nicely indeed
Avin was sarcastic. He meant that there hasn't been any major action so far.
OH I have to disagree with him then, cos the racing, especially in the mountainous stages has been great to watch |

Just saw that Rujano finished 20 minutes behind Juan Antonio Flecha on the 17th stage. Poor man.
And now he abandoned
Savio won't be too impressed.

Meh, Intxausti dropped with the peloton going backwards. He'll arrive to the finish with the peloton already halfway up the Stelvio.

Very difficult descent. Liquigas will probably take control to make sure that Basso can take it on from the front. Would be cool if someone like Cunego attacked.

Beer this early?
Keep going. At that rate you'll be seeing attacks all over the place soon enough
Anyway, pretty sure somebody will attack on the first time up the Alpe. The question is who.

So what are the odds for Kreuziger either expolding or hanging there longer? I think it is completly random chance for anything to happen today.

What Kreuziger does or doesn't do is kinda uninteresting now. Isn't he 11 minutes behind or something?

Replying to cactus-jack. It's definitely interesting for a cyclist fan. Came as a leader and failed, criticized and already linked to OPQS. If he doesn't perform he'll leave Astana next year. It's definitely worth watching how he does today.

He is looking good so far, but this can change quickly.

After his statements I'm pretty sure there's no way he's not leaving
