It's not about being dumb. They were doing what they keep being told they must do to win the big races. |

We shouldnt be thinking about if theres going to be any doping scandals in the Giro. I never think like that before a big grand tour it ruins your mindset when your watching the riders and ruins the entertainment for you. You should think about it when a rider gets caught then forget about it and think hes caught theres another cheat gone. Always think positive before a grand tour and not about doping scandals before its even start im sorry but thats not how cycling fans should think, well i believe that anyway. |

The giro cant be bothered drug testing (italians) just look at ricco and peipoli. They got caught after a few stages during the tour. Im pretty sure we will get no positive tests. And how did sella not get caught to  |

The giro organisorers have chanced the 10th stage from
This:

Because there was danger of rock-fall on Colla Della Madalena, adn as the historic stage was ruined they removed the french mountais as they could give trouble with radio comunication.

EDIT: And the epic stage 10 will have to be modified. The organisers couldn't get a permission to close off traffic on the descent of the Col de Larche.

I hope that Brajkovic is second captain to Lance. I think he can do great in a grand tour. Astanas problem is that hey have 9 captain but everybody going for Tour de France. After all a Giro and Vuelta victory is something that most teams would kill for. Klöden and Levi give up the Tour. Focus on something ells. A Grand Tour victory is better than being second to Contador in a Tour. |
