You enjoyed Armstrong's missing ball ? You liked Hamilton's broken collarbone ? You admired Landis' twisted hip ? You applauded Vinokourov's cut knees ? Now you'll also clap hands for Contador's half-broken wrist.
I'm now expecting him to be caught in the coming year.  |

Di Luca and Ricco are the loosers on this stage. Kloden and Contador are the winners. The rider who surprised me most was Simoni maybe he are stronger than last year. |

Di Luca fan. My favourite rider is Cunego but he is not riding this year but he is closely follwed by Di Luca, Ballan and the fourth rider is Ricco. |

I think Kloden didn't do very well, he should take this stage... the winner is Bruseghin :-)
of course Contador did very well and now Di Luca and Riccò have a great work to do... |

yet you're always pandering the "innocent until proven guilty" bit

What did I say a couple of days ago? After the rest day, Astana will dominate. 3 riders in top 10. Good thing is that they didn't win. |

As Kloden has said he has been tested 22 times this year and id say the others have been to. If they are cheating the laws of average suggest your catch one of them now either these teams are just so far ahead of the testers or not cheating. I'll be the first to say im wrong if one is found out to be cheating. I believe they have done nothing wrong until otherwise proven. |

Michael Rasmussen was tested negative hundreds of times - he has never tested positive - yet he was doped too. Same goes for Riis. Same with hundreds of other athletes.
Yes, legally speaking, we can't say they are doped, but if we open our eyes and look at their performances, wattages, circumstantial evidence, etc. it's quite clear they have doped.
Anyway, I don't want to turn this into yet another doping thread. |

To be fair it was always going to be the case. Expected better from levi. |

Well yes i do agree with that point but i like to believe they are all doing the same so its all fair. You just have to except that your never have all sports 100% clean. But the more test carried out makes it hard to cheat. Back to the giro now anyway. |

he's done much better in much shorter TTs. but this one had about the amount of flat that he does well in, followed by climbs.
so no surprise there.
